Looking for a New Shampoo and Conditioner

It's been a while since I've been on this site and let me start my saying I love the new layout. It really gives the site a nice smooth, sleek look.

But anyways I am here to ask about shampoo and conditioner recommendations. Over the summer I started using Terressentials Mud shampoos. I actually really did enjoy the affects of the clay wash. It left my hair mointurized so that all I had to do was seal it with oil after I washed it, it made it extremely easy to comb through my hair (even easier than typical slick conditioners), and I got less shrinkage of my hair. Sadly, however, I think I am going to have to cut clay out (although maybe not permanently). I think I use it too often becuase I use it the same way I did when I used to faux cowash if you will. So it now it has caused a buildup in my hair that has has my hair coming out even when I attempt to run my fingers through it. It's especially bad where I have "dead" hair that has lost it's curl.

So if anybody could recommend a non clay shampoo that will help remove the build up but not strip or MAT my hair and a conditioner that is also good for daily use and detangling seeing as I will probably go back to my old routine of shampooing once a week and using conditioner in the shower to detangle and moistuize (I mostly wear my hair in wash n go's.

Last thing I have tried to the tresemme naturals moisture line (with the avacado) and I think I liked their shampoo and but not conditioner. I also know that they have changed the formulas for their lines which makes me hesitant to use it again. Before using the Terressentials I was using tresemme's flawless curls line which I liked the conditioner but not the shampoo (matted my hair). But that line too has had a formula change and the conditioner is no where near as thick as it was when I first used it so I don't get the same ease of detangling and level of moisture which is why I switched.

I'm not a label junkie or feel that I should only use products desgined for black hair. I've heard good think about Herbal Essence Hello Hydration which I think I may try (last time I used herbal essence the shampoos still came in the clear bottles with the flowers in the background and the commericals were a little inappropropriate for tv

Anyone else remember those? lol) But I'm also preferably looking for something I can find in your local Kroger, Walmart, Walgreens etc. I don't do much online cuz I'm kinda impatient (with receiving or returning) and don't like to pay for shipping lol

It's alright and I have used the suave naturals for color treated hair before and I think I liked that. And my hair is colored now so maybe I should look into that Thanks
