Can any one recommend a good hair conditioner that helps dry brittle hair?
I had really a lot of hair before taking prednisone ( started last September) but it is not thin, brittle and dry. It upsets me more than any symptom of pmr!!
Any one know something that really works i would be pleased to hear. Thanks

I would love to know too. I had slightly greasy, straight, shoulder length hair. With pred I had hay like curly, dry hair that looked like a scarecrow! I tried everything under the sun. In the end I cut my hair very short.
I’ve spent a lot of money on different hair products in an attempt to tame my pred hair that has become thinner as well. The dry straw like frizz occasionally responds but it’s very hit and miss. I’ve had to stop being tempted to buy more conditioners to use up the products I have. I tend to use different ones for each wash which is reduced to once a week or even longer. I’m not sure for me that there’s the holy grail of hair products out there but good luck with your search.
I find that after washing and conditioning with whatever I rub the palms of my hands with Bio oil and then stroke my hands through my hair. It seems to help!
Just 2 nights ago I tried this for the straw that has developed over the past 5 months. No idea if it will stop the breaking and splitting but hair feels and looks a lot better so far. tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/p...
Elvive total repair 5 conditioner
The French instructions say to leave it on for 2 mins.
The stuff is available in UK in Tesco....see link . Its called Elseve in France but its the same thing . Roll on L'Oréal ,your local friendly hair product manufacturer🤣......après-shampooing available partout.
I have had loads of hair problems...chunks falling out...the rest vey brittle..the best thing I have found is Johnson's baby shampoo...hope it helps. (and only washing once a week)
I was about to say Aussie then I looked at all the responses and saw you had ordered some I saw it advertised on TV last night and sounds very good Hope it works well for you
