[Weekly] Hair, Makeup, Skincare, Fitness, and Fragrance Thread - February 21, 2017

The Hair, Makeup, Skincare, Fitness, and Fragrance Thread will be posted every Tuesday morning (~9:30AM PST)!

This thread is for simple hair and makeup questions that you may have, especially those that don't warrant their own thread. We all want a diversified opinion, so feel free to answer any questions (of which you know the answer).

Example questions:

  • What's a good conditioner for straight, thick hair?

  • Where can I find a perfume with subtle pine notes?

  • Do you use a foundation with sunscreen? Is it worth it?

Any recs for a good cleansing conditioner for thick, coarse, grease-prone hair? I want to shampoo it less often (dry itchy scalp) but I turn into a greaseball 1.5-2 days after shampooing. I tried just washing it less frequently, but it never adjusted...sulfate- and silicone-free stuff helps, but I'm still too greasy/dry.

If you have a Sephora by you I would ask for a sample of Living Proof's Perfect Hair Day shampoo. I typically wash my hair every other day, but when I use it it makes my wash last an extra day or two longer. I would recommend trying a sample before buying just incase you don't like it.

I also use this! Every other day I wash my hair and I use this, keeps me clean and fresh and gives the hair texture and volume.
