Treatment for Dry Hair

Does your hair "feel dry" or does it lack luster shine, the vitality, and the beauty you are used to seeing in your hair? Though dry hair can be caused by many factors, there are some simple choices you can make to get rid of your dry hair:
1- change what you are doing to eliminate the dryness or
2- adjust your hair products to compensate for your unwanted dry hair... or
3- do both #1 & #2 above and say goodbye to you dry hair!

Hot Showers

Wrong Shampoo

Blow Drying

Turn down the water temperature! While hot showers may "feel great" to you it may be causing your dry hair . The hot water causes depletion of natural oil from you hair & scalp. Hot water can also cause "dandruff"
to appear as the body sends your scalp into "over drive reproduction mode" in an attempt to replace the cells now flaking off. Simply put, your scalp has fewer pain receptors and, without knowing it, the hot water you use tortures those cells to death right on your scalp. Scalp cells are now flaking off and bingo - you think you have dandruff.

If you have colored, straightened or permed hair you need to be using a shampoo & a conditioner that is designed to work with your hair and your hair treatment.

Here is the big trick - & its easy too!
Place the stream of hot air from you blow dryer on top of your thumb nail - if you get too close it will hurt so increase the distance between your thumb nail and the dryer until it is NOT too hot for your nail. This is the "safe distance" for your blow dryer to be held from your hair.
PS - you must also stop drying when your hair is dry.

Dry Hair That is Naturally Curly
The dry feel for naturally curly hair may just be that "a
feeling of natural stiffness." This feeling of dryness or
stiffness is usually discovered when you run you hair
between you fingers. The sides of your fingers are more
sensitive than the cushion tips making it easier to detect

stiffness and or or or "scratchy-ness" that your finger tips would miss. Curly hair is generally flatter in shape than straight hair which is round by comparison. The tighter the curl the flatter the cross section of the hair and the "scratchier" or dryer it feels between your fingers. It may not be dry at all. But you think it is because it feels "scratchy".

Failure To Condition
If your hair is dry & you don't want dry hair then you

MUST use conditioner every time you shampoo your
hair!

The shampoo removes the good, the bad & the ugly
from your hair. The conditioner you want puts back
the good (without weighing down your fine hair)!

Chlorine from Pools or Hot Tubs
Use hair products that help remove the chlorine or
bromine form your hair with out drying your hair.

Hot Tools - Flat Irons & Curling Irons
If you have one of the new tools that says it it OK to flat
iron or curling iron wet hair - and you hair is becoming dryer
- stop using the iron on you hair before you have dried it.

After drying you hair, use your curling iron or flat iron but
first apply a styling product designed to protect your hair from the high temperatures of your iron.

Minerals in Your Water

Your water may contain harmful minerals that will
severely damage your hair overtime.

Use products that remove these harmful minerals from your hard water hair to make your hair healthier and happier.
