Please help, I really need help. I'm 15 years old and I rebonded my hair twice already. Last 2015, then 2016. Now that my hair has gone through intense ironing, its dead. The scalp area is already curling up, (but not so obvious) and the tips are silky. And since my hair is becoming that way, I iron my hair almost twice a week to stop the curls. But still, it's not good. Whenever I finish showering too, it's so dry and curly from the top! (I was my hair like twice a week as well.) I've been searching out answers but all the answers were "you need a big chop down". And honestly I would love to do that but I can't because people will stare at me in school and my self esteem would be low. Instead of having a big chop down, what can I do to make my hair alive again?

I would suggest buying a nice all-natural shampoo such as Naturewell Coconut Oil Shampoo and Conditioner or another type of shampoo that won't be too harsh on your hair and specializes in revitalizing it. Another product that worked for me is Dove's Intensive Repair Treatment. Straightening your hair should probably be done twice a week, three times at most, and be sure to put a heat protector on your hair before. As your hair grows, you can get it chopped off at different intervals. Good luck!
Argan oil of Morocco made by OGX is amazing! You can get it at Wal-Mart. Argan oil of Morrocco is the minerals in the product listed on the front while OGX is the brand. The shampoo and conditioner both come in a blue bottle with a gold lid, $7-$10 each depending where you get it. Also, for after the shower, use argan oil of morrocco penetrating oil, comes in a gold bottle and costs $12-$14. I got highlights put into my hair for the first time when I was 18, fried my hair the first time I straightened it. These three products literally saved my hair, hid the damage, and didn't cost a fortune either. Now, if you want to go expensive Tea Tree is a great brand, but get it from a salon. It generally costs $40-$50 per bottle though. I'm 22 now and both brands make it look like I have never put a straightener or other damaging products in/on my hair!
