I bought Paul Mitchell's dry wax off ebay for about a tenner. It's pretty good, gives the hair a nice feel, smells nice and washes out easily if you need to. In regards to shampoo and so on I use Matrix Biolage Hydrating shampoo and conditioner, off ebay £13.50 for both. I'm still very new to this and still learning, but I do feel that these products make the hair feel less dry after using them.

I also use a leave in conditioner which many recommend, the aussie formula one...again pretty good, but I'm still keen to see what others come up with. Might give the Brylcreem a pop.
