I've no idea where to put this question, so I settled on equipment. Please move as necessary.
I tested a shampoo/conditioner on my hair. Sea to Summit. It was a disaster. I could not draw a comb through my hair at all. Then I tried some leave in conditioner on it. And somehow I ended up with hair that was both dry and greasy at the same time.
I know lots of people take one bar of something for everything and manage just nicely. You all must have hair that doesn't tangle and isn't dry to begin with. I need to reduce pack weight more and my toiletries bag is getting scrutiny now. Is there something that works for hair that tangles easily? If it works on my hair I'm fine using it on my body. But I need to be able to run a comb through it!
Also, do I really need a bottle of sunscreen for my skin in the last two weeks of March given that the weather is likely to be more snowy and rainy than sunny? I already have sunscreen in my face moisturizer (which I am determined to bring...I tranferred it to a smaller/lighter container).
And do you bring a small bottle of hand cream? I have dry skin too. Yes, I realize I could pick this up at any pharmacy along the way, but then it'll still be in my pack increasing my weight, so I might as well pick one up that is super low weight to begin with if it is a necessary item.
There have got to be some girlie girls with some secrets on products here. I'm not bringing any make up or even a razor. I just want to feel clean and comb my hair.
Help?
