What kind of Brand of shampoo would suit my hair type?

Out of the four you mentioned, I like Pantene and Aussie best. I've never heard the animal fat thing, and it's worked quite well for my hair. Aussie also works fine too. Garnier shampoos and conditioners DO NOT work for me. They made my hair quite disgusting, but I don't know about anyone else. Another brand you might want to try is Suave. It is very inexpensive, works amazingly well, and smells good. On sale at Shoprite I got a bunch for 70 cents! Good luck!
