Do all hairdressers hate drugstore products?
Why is there such bias towards high-end haircare? I also wonder whether this bias is real and personal or they get a special commission to promote a salon product.
I would love to use Paul Mitchell or Aveda conditioners and styling cremes year-round, but I can't afford it. (I won't buy the shampoos because they use the same cleansing ingredients.) I should not have to hear a speech about switching brands every time I get a haircut. I've also noticed that Suave Professionals and L'oreal conditioners work wonders for my hair, so there's not much reason to go more expensive.

Of course that there is nothing more stupid then buying expensive products that do not help You. Even the cheapiest product helping you is better than the most expensive that have no help for your type of hair.

Stick with what works for you. Most of the time, hairdressers just want to sell you what they have in their hair salons. These products end up being very pricy.

I guess it is horses for courses. I chose Pro Naturals which is a hair repair system recommended by my hairdresser. Yes, it is top end, but because it allows me to use this product alongside my everyday brand Australian Tea Tree Shampoo & Conditioner it makes it very reasonable. Also the fact that it actually does what it says means a great deal to me.

Not necessarily! A lot of hairdressers get drugstore products.
