Hair masks are awesome too.. Morraconoil hydrating hair mask is amazing.

I'm a hair dresser. .Sounds like your hair is very dry. If your hair is breaking off then don't use too much protein (keratin) Cuz it will make your hair break off worse. If the shampoo n conditioner you are using has more than one protein (keratin) in it then switch. Morraconoil hydrating shampoo n conditioner is amazing. Anti snap from redken would be good for you as well.  It stops your hair from breaking.  Just use a little on the ends or anywhere youre having breakage.  Also Don't wash your hair everyday Cuz that can make it dryer as well. . Try every single or third even if you can. An oil would be nice too. Like paul Mitchell super skinny serum or morrocanoil treatment oil.. put In hair while wet. Also Don't brush or comb hair when wet it is at its most fragile point.. wait til all the way dry then comb.  Hope this helps.

It's like nothing works now for me so starting fresh is going to be best.

Wow. My hair is growing like a weed. I just cut it a month ago and its grown a couple inches. I just have issues with my hair being super oily now though.

Prenatals should help and using any keratin infused shampoos/conditioners will help too.

Fet mane and tail shampoo. Its for horses but it will help your hair grow and keep it mosituraized. I probably sound crazy but a lady at a hair salon told me about it
