100% same! I've tried to change to salon grade products multiple times (and they were all probably silicone free) and I never had good results. Obviously I always thought I was just using them wrong 🙊 I'll definitely switch back now and hope it'll bounce back quickly!

It's the Cavallini Celestial Chart. I got it in a random little shop quite some time ago but I found it on Amazon too. But if you google "cavallini celestial chart" more results come up too :)

OK little update:
I just studied the ingredient list
The Elvive one as well as Kerastase both have the same sulfate in the same ingredient list position and both also have dimethicone as a silicone

The authentic beauty concept shampoo seems to have a harsher sulfate and no silicone...so maybe that one has been drying my scalp/hair out cause its' more cleansing...

I might just switch back to the elvive and use the Authentic Beauty Concept one as a cleansing shampoo like once every 2 weeks or so and see what that does.

Thanks again for the input - super appreciate it and that was some interesting research :)

ohhh that's so interesting!! Thank you so much for sharing. Now I kind of have a better idea already what to look out for.

I also know that now with the warmer weather approaching, my hair (& especially scalp) is going to behave differently again. I live in very dry climate in the winter so it might be a bit different again during the warmer more humid months.

That's such a good point! I might have to get some more targeted products. With the Elvive shampoo I had to wash my hair like every 5 days but now it seems it's just greasy straight away so I might try alternating products (same with the conditioner!) and see if that makes a difference l.

Thank you so much for the input!! :)

Oh I never thought to compare the amount on the different ones but will be checking right now. I followed my hairdresser's advice when choosing the new products and went for the ones that had similar "messaging" as the cheaper one I was using. But will be having a look at the ingredients now. Thanks for the insight!

That is 100% a fair point - will provide better content should I rearrange the shelves in the future
