Janie, do you use any kind of conditioner or creme rinse? That would help, I think. My hair is thin and baby fine, also quite dry unless I use a conditioner every day, or every time I wash it, which is usually every day. I use Sexy Hair Soymilk Conditioner, along with their soymilk shampoo and highly recommend it. You can find it in salons. My daughter has gorgeous, long hair and uses it, too.
