when i was younger, my hair had been bleached and peroxided into this (now) ridiculous cobwebby death-hawk of no return. the moment i said 'ooo my hair is so fried' my mom made me an appointment with her big gay al hairdresser.
you already know what you have to do. lay off the heat, lay off the chemicals. he told me the same thing.
for a week try air drying. pin your hair up while it dries to create body. no amount of chemmy product will restore your locks. trim a little from the ends, then in a few weeks trim it again. use only sharp razors, don't let a hairdresser get away with dull blades of any kind - ever.
switch hair dyes perhaps, finding your hue in a cleaner product.
most of all, oil doesn't do quite enough. mix up an egg with a tablespoon of oil (olive, grapeseed or i like gardenia oil) and a big dallop of your fave conditioner. make enough to coat your hair really thick. leave it on under a shower cap for 10 mins then rinse in cool water. shampoo and air dry.
let us know how it goes!
