Dry hair. Any recommendations?

Answer 1

I have a similar problem, I also get dandruff on top of it. I have started using the hair-oil as much time as possible in my hair. Especially nights, on travelling when lot of wind in my hair is expected (car drive with window down), weekends (without dates!) etc. Shampoo the hair using pH neutral shampoo/conditioner - this will help you retain your hair even if you wash them everyday.
Additionally, avoid coloring, styling, ironing hair as much as possible.
It has worked pretty well for me :-) all the best.

Answer 2

Skip the cheap pantene and herbal essence, they coat your hair with wax, use something that your stylist would recommend... like TIGI Moisture Maniac... Professional Hair Products are more condensed, so you can use less shampoo/conditioner every time and then it will cost about the same in the long run. Cheap stuff just makes your hair look cheap.

Answer 3

I've been told to only wash my roots and when I rinse the shampoo out it will pull any grime thats in the rest of my hair out. And of course use conditioner. Dry Paul Mitchell's Gloss Drops. They work great on dry hair.

Answer 4

try a deep conditioner once a week (bumble and bumble makes an awesome deep conditioner)

also, wash hair only every other day (hair isn't meant to be washed every day! it strips it of its oils) and only wash the roots (the part that creates the oils)

Answer 5

Try a leave in treatment or VO5's Hot oil treatment.

Answer 6

i don't know what kinds of recommendations you want, but i use either aussie spray-in, leave-in conditioner or the new dove spray-in, leave-in conditioners...they work great

Answer 7

use Aussie three minute miracle. works like a charm.

Hair is made of protein. A diet rich in protein can avoid most of the hair problems. Proper hair care can give you fabulous, shining, thick, beautiful, gorgeous, and dandruff free hair. Oiling hair regularly will prevent various hair problems. Home-made beauty recipes like face-packs, facial masks, scrubs, hair care, dandruff care and bodywraps based on herbs and natural ingredients help improve the skin disorders and detoxify. They help in providing natural oil and moisture to the skin.
