5 cheap ways to cure dry hair
Monday, December 21st, 2009Dealing with a dry scalp and dry hair is one of those miserable things that you have to do trial and error with until you figure out what works for you.
There are so many items on the market claiming to “get rid of dandruff” or “bring moisture back to your locks” and we’ve compiled a list of some inexpensive ways to cure dryness.
1. Limit your hot showers. Steam and hot water seem like a logical solution right? After all it is a type of moisture. But the downside is that it literally pulls moisture away from your body and you get an even dryer scalp!
2. Rinse your hair with lukewarm or cold water after you are done shampooing/conditioning. The cold water seals the hair and keeps the moisture in.
3. Try not to wash your hair every single day. If you can wait a day or two between shampooing you’ll do wonders for your scalp.
4. Invest in a quality product that you can leave in your hair for a few days that smells good and keeps your strands healthy.
5. Use natural olive oil as a leave-in conditioner overnight or for a few hours. For best results wrap your head with a warm towel to help the olive oil settle into your scalp and hair.
