    I've noticed recently that I have a lot of split ends and my hair is brittle and breaking on the ends, about 1cm from tip.

    Got my hair cut in December, won't really be able to afford another until April or so. Could anyone recommend a shampoo or conditioner that could help? Wouldn't want to spend more than €10.

    I bought joico k Pak it was about ten pound so a little more than your budget but it's brill stuff my ends were wrecked from bleaching the bottom but like you I didn't want to fork out for a hair cut - no need now!
    Failing that I have found Aussie three minute miracle good and redken cat treatment

    I bought a big bottle (I think 750ml) of schwarkopf Bonacure repair rescue conditioning treatment in terrisales I think it was €16 i'm sure the smaller bottle was under a tenner. It is amazing! I smoother it all over my hair, put cling film and a towel and leave it on for as long as I can! My hair always feels unreal after it! It is the best one I have found so fair :) my second favourite is the orofluido mask but think it is 12€.

    Avon do a split end mender thats meant to be decent. Its probably something preventative that youre looking for though.

    Someone mentioned to me that Tigi Bed Head Ego Boost Split End Mender and Leave in Conditioner was very good. I haven't used it myself so don't really know how good it is. Apparently there are several products in this range which specifically target split ends. I understand this particular one is UK£10 so probably 12 - 13 Euro?

    Check out tk Maxx for tigi products, it's hit and miss on what they have but they are much cheaper :)

    +1 for the Joico K-Pak. I used to be blonde (bottle :D) and this, along with mayonnaise, was the only thing that made my hair feel normal. It was so dry and ruined.

    Having said that, I think I paid about 15 quid each for the shampoo and the conditioner, but I got them on eBay so that was probably mostly P&P.

    I'm a big fan of Mane'n'Tail too, and it does come in extra moisturising, or deep moisture, something like that. It's a leave in/rinse out/do whatever you want conditioner and I love it.
