Dear Damaged Hair,

I want so desperately to love you despite your dry, over-colored, trying-to-ruin-my-life, split-ended ways. I'm so upset with you that I have considered chopping you all off (see how amazing I would look in one of these trendy short haircuts).

But if I'm really being honest with myself, I have to admit, that I'm not ready to lose you. I just can't keep trying to hide you with this trick. We need help. I can't do this alone anymore. I won't go to fried hair rehab, but I DO want to get some deep conditioner therapy. Please see this list of the 11 Best Deep Conditioners so you know what kind of change to expect.

I know this is hard, but you'll become healthier with help from these highest rated conditioners:
