Any hair-care experts?
So, my hair is super thick (and currently pretty long - midback length) and even though it's straight, it's always been fairly course.
I don't blow dry my hair (except maybe twice a year) and I only ever use a flat iron or any heat at all, on my bangs. I also don't use any product. And, I don't color my hair.
So, here's my problem. The top, sort of layer (for lack of a better term) is just always sort of dry and frizzy. Any ideas on what I could put on it that would make it look healthier?
Right now, I use Panteen for thick straight hair. The underside of my hair is totally healthy and pretty. But the top looks like I take a flat iron to it 20 times a day, every day. What gives?
Any ideas or tips?
P.S. I never had this problem until about 10 years ago, once I hit my mid-early 20's.

Re: Any hair-care experts?
I'm no expert, but it sounds like we have pretty similar thick hair. I love a product by Kiehls called "Heat protective silk straightening cream". It's about $20 a tube, but my last tube lasted about 8 months.
I do dry my hair a couple times a week and flat iron everyday, but I think this would also work nicely just for taming frizziness.

No, there are Kiehls stores and you can often find their stuff at cosmetics counters. I looked in Oklahoma City and they carry Kiehls at the Dillards in the Penn Square Mall.
