With my hair doing a veritable Jekyll and Hyde act these last few months, with oily roots and frizzy dry ends, I was pretty psyched to try out Aveeno's first-ever hair care collection, and it did not disappoint. Promising to nourish hair back to life in just three washes, I indeed found my own tresses soothed, smoothed, and smelling fantastic. There's a little science involved: the Wheat Complex has a positive electrical charge, which attracts to the negatively charged damaged parts of the hair follicle. When the complex is attracted to the damaged areas, it delivers the right amount of proteins needed to help moisturize and repair dry and damaged hair. Why not check it out for yourself? Two lucky Shopalicious readers will be among the first to try the products before they become available to the public in late April! Here's how to enter the contest: 1. Comment below and tell Aveeno about your own crazy damaged hair story; 2. include your email address, one entry per person, please; 3. Contest is open to U.S. residents only, ending on 03/22/2009 at 4:00pm ET. Two winners will receive: 2 AVEENO® NOURISH+ Shampoos, 1 AVEENO® NOURISH+ Conditioner and 1 AVEENO® NOURISH+ Condition Leave-In Treatment. Good luck!

This story is actually about my mother. She needs this way more than I do. She is an ER nurse and she always had her hair dyed to blonde from her normal brown. She has been doing this for over 10 years. One day she went into a salon like she normally does and they girl made it why to dark. My mom was not happy because she had discussed exactly what she wants with her and the girl said she understood and knew what she wanted. After the wrong color was put in the girl said that she could just dye it again next week. My mom said isn't that too soon and the girl said no. So my mom went back the next week and the girl tried to dye her hair again. Once the solution was on it started to burn my mom. She screamed that it was burned and the girl said that means it's working. My mother said NO, it hurts, get it off! So as she was washing out the solution my mothers hair was coming out in chunks. My mother left crying.
Every since I was little long beautiful hair has been something my mother and I loved and prided ourselves on. My mother had hair that was so damaged she had to cut it from 16 inches to 1 inch. We don't live in the same city and when I finally got to visit her she was still so upset. The next day I cut off my hair to the same length as her and donated it. Now she is struggling to grow it back because the damage was so deep. Her hair is thinner and she is so unhappy.
Finally something that will help her! Even if I don't win I hope that I can give this to her and it will give her the strong beautiful hair she has always had.

No way I can top that story.
I get what I consider to be routine hair stress- spending the days in an overheated, dry office and nights in a cold, dry house. That seems to be enough to punish my follicles.

My damaged hair story is anything as dramatic as Allison's mother's story. I've been growing it out since before highschool, but when I was in highschool, I had no idea how to take care of it. I would yank a brush through it when it was wet, wouldn't use conditioner, wring it dry, etc. Now my hair is long but damaged, even my split ends have split ends! Maybe the best way to repair it would be just to give up and cut a good chunk of it off, but I want to try other options first!
