There can be many causes for dryness, tips of moisturizing extremely dry hair are not very complicated to find and implement. Dryness can create fly-aways and your style can look a mess. Sometimes you can even receive a shock from the static electricity, but it is not hard to eliminate the problem.

Changing your shampoo is a good first step. Use a shampoo made to put moisture back in. Use less when you wash and use a conditioner after, let it sit for a few minutes to ensure absorption. If you can avoid drying with a blow dryer that will help. Towel dry and if you need to style try to stop blow drying before you are completely dry.

Massage your scalp to release natural oils from the glands and brush through. A teaspoon of olive oil on your hands and rubbed in will make your hair shiny and moisturized. Special treatments can be purchased from the store to restore moisture, hot oil works well.

Mayonnaise rubbed in and then covered with a plastic bag will restore moisture. Keep it in for at least 20 minutes and then wash out. It contains eggs and oil which are both excellent for moisturizing. Try not to overwork your hair, just comb it as much as it needs with a brush that has rubber tips and do not wash every day or you will strip out the natural oils. If you can, go 2 to 3 days between washings. (more…)
