devacurl melt into moisture alternative
i have thick, wavy hair that's completely bleached so i can dye it pink. per my stylist's recommendation, i've used devacurl melt into moisture matcha mask as a 2x/week leave in for years. after finally going through my last bulk buy, i've discovered that it's been discontinued, and i tried the new thing they have named "melt into moisture," and i hate how it makes my hair feel.
has anyone found a good alternative? i'm doing my best to keep my hair healthy despite it being bleached all to shit and i am STRUGGLING. it looks like someone asked about this like seven months ago without any luck...
current routine: hair wash 2x week, no shampoo, joico defy damage conditioner used as a co-wash. once a week i use it through all of my hair, and once a week i use their deep conditioner all throughout instead. rinse, air dry. brazilian dry oil used primarily in ends in the morning + before bed, except on days the matcha mask is (was 🥲) applied. hair is just sort of kept loose at night, but i use satin pillowcases (though maybe i should start braiding it at night?).
thank you!!
