i've been using a semi-permanent dye to darken my hair since this past spring. it always looks shiny and healthy at first, but then as the color fades, my hair becomes so dull! i'm going to the salon next friday to get it recolored, but does anyone have any tips (or products to recommend) for the next week and a half? i feel like it just looks so lifeless right now...
i got a free sample of this when i bought a pantene conditioner, and i just went back and got the full-size bottle. my hair is wavy and really long (to the top of my waistband), and i've been using this before i put in my gel. i definitely think it makes my hair look shinier. i don't think it weighs it down at all, but it's hard to tell since my hair is so long anyway. it's about $4.
leave-in treatment, shining start

I've started putting a tablespoon of olive oil on my hair the night before I wash it (every 2-3 days). It makes it soooo soft and shiny, but doesn't make it oily or weigh it down.
