Shampoo with Elmer's Glue-all

Back at the beginning of February, you may recall I decided to try a new shampoo.
It's been a month. I think Pantene's 90% less breakage claim is a crock. Breakage is down, but not anywhere near that much.
Maybe this stuff was formulated for people who wash their hair daily and blow dry the crap out of it, curling irons, crimpers, straighteners and other heating appliances optional. For an every other day user who does not blow dry, I might as well use Elmers. Seriously. My hair feels tacky by the end of day one, greasy by the end of day two - and yes, I am using the traditional dime-sized squirt of both the 'poo and conditioner. I started alternating with Suave for color treated hair. On Suave days, my hair looks and feels fine. On Pantene days, I look like freaking Wormtongue.
It's time to reduce the Pantene to once a week and see what happens....
