Hair products that work very well?

My hair is sorta long, brown with some blond highlights(the blond makes it a little bit light), and a little thick.

every time i wash it i let it air dry and brush it but in the morning is is poofy(not frizzy) and it never looks nice or is fully straight. it gets messier as the day goes on some how. I am using Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine sheer shampoo in a green bottle and Paul Mitchell conditioner in a white bottle.

Are there better washers to use that arnt exspencive? I also dont have time to straighten,gell, or anything in the morning too. I usually where a headband. Thanks for your help!!!

Reverse what your doing. Most people think if you use a more expensive conditioner (your Paul Mitchell) that this is good for the hair. The truth is its the shampoo that makes the most difference when it comes to the hair. Try using the Paul Mitchell shampoo and if you cannot afford the corresponding conditioner, then go ahead and use your fructis. It will make a difference.
