I use "Curls Rock" products (shampoo, conditioner, styling products - I believe the maker is "Tigi" and the products I use are in the "Catwalk" line). I have curly hair, and this is the first group of products that's really helped to make my curls look nice and not frizzy or flat.

I use Pantene. I just love the way it works with my hair--keeps it strong and shiny and manageable. If I ever need to use anything else, I feel my hair is knotted and lifeless.

I use Tresemme (I think I spelled it wrong). I just like the way it leaves my hair.

I use Bio hydratherapy because my hair is weak and tends to fall out easily, especially after i straighten it (i have naturally curly hair). This has made it stronger and i dont have that much hair on my comb in the mornings (i have to wash my hair every day)

I have no favorites so I'm looking to fall in love  with something. I have super-healthy, fine-textured, thick, normal-to-oily hair. I can try a lot of things, luckily. Right now I'm using Pantene for darker blonde hair, and it's not bad. It's just not "all that", you know. It does make my ends look good though. I don't even know what I'm looking for I guess. Maybe a good clarifying shampoo. I feel like Pantene's leaving a build-up. Maybe it's my own oils though.

Because I color my hair I use Redken's Color Extend and I really like it. I have fine hair as well. I also use Redken's defrizzer cream and their Guts spray Mousse. For hairspray (I have to use it now that I cut my hair short) I still use good ol' Aussie.

I change it between a few different ones. They say you should switch every month because it'll help get rid of build up.
I alternate between Paul Mitchell Awapui (love the smell), Dove and Suave.

I alternate between Dove and Biolage.
I used to use Suave but my hair dresser said they contain a lot of wax and that is what makes my hair flat and weird feeling. So I stopped using it.

I'm cheap when it comes to shampoo so my favorite are the Dove Deep Conditioning. But if it's on sale I'll buy the Brilliant Brunette by John Frieda. If my scalp is hating me I use Paul Mitchells Tea Tree. When I worked at Sally Beauty Supply I loved the Biolage knock-off.
My hair is super dry almost all of the time.

I had a stylist tell me that you might as well use rubbing alcohol in your hair if you are going to use Suave or White Rain. Who knows. They seem to all have the same ingredients. I know for example, I can't use Pantene. It used to leave sores on my scalp.

EW! Sores on your scalp? Steph, you're an attorney. Sue them, and split the money with me.  I can't use Pantene either. It leaves my hair very frizzy and feels like I didn't condition at all.
Lately I've been using Infusium 23 conditioner and that's not working very well either. I do plan to get my hair trimmed before surgery though. I know that I have a few split ends here and there so I'm sure that will help.

I like Dove, because my hair is thick and coarse and Dove doesn't seem to make it "heavier"

I mostly use Pantene Smooth and Sleek alternating with Garnier Fructis Smoothing Formula, but I just got Herbal Essences for dry hair (it was on a really good sale) and I love it. I have super thick, super coarse hair that gets sooo dry and brittle, and I can't wash it everyday. It makes my hair smell amazing the entire time in between shampoos and it turns out nice, too. Having it smell really fresh both days is such a treat.

I use Paul Mitchel color treated once a week I use Tee tree shampoo because I'm around a lot of kids and it is post to keep lice away. I have never got it from a kid but it scares me that I would get it.

I use Suave mostly. My hair is extra oily and has to be washed everyday. I have to use the "clear" shampoos, because the "creamy" ones always leave a build-up. And, I can't use a daily conditioner. If I use one at all it's once-a-week max.

I use Panteen (the stuff for tangles) and really like the good ol Aussie (Redkin) brand. I too use Aussie Hair spray, nothing else.

Since I color my hair, I use stuff from the salon: Silk Result by Joico.

I use Tresemme anti breakage shampoo because it smells good and makes my hair feel good and clean and Pantene deep therapy conditioner because it makes my hair soft and helps with split ends and breakage.

I was inspired by this thread to try something new. So I bought Aussie, and I really like it. It leaves my hair nice and soft, and I've given up on anything taking the static out of my hair. But it's good.

This may sound odd but have you thought of trying to quickly run a fabric softener sheet through your hair? It might help with the static.
