I've just re-dyed my hair and for the first time in a while I didn't condition it. Without conditioner it feels a little straw like. It isn't slimey when wet, it's just kind of... hard I guess? I'm not sure how to describe it. It's really difficult to brush through and it feels a bit crunchy when dry.
What does my hair need to be healthy again? Or is it just damaged beyond repair?

It sounds like it might just be really dry. My hair felt like this the last time I faded it with harsh shampoo. I would deep condition it and then see how it feels 🙂

I agree; if it was damaged it would get that chewing gum feeling when wet and you'd probably notice some breakage too. TLC time 🙂

When I wash my hair with shampoo/no conditioner it also feels like this. If I leave it for a couple of days it feels much better, which tells me it is dry rather than damaged. My other test is to oil my hair with coconut or argan oil, if the ends absorb it all I re-apply. If they keep absorbing it all and still feel crispy, those bits get chopped off
