A Little Gob Will Do YaI've noticed that my hair lately doesn't have the same shine and bounce to it that my curly mop used to have. It seems to be rather dry even with the use of a good shampoo, conditioner and periodic olive oil and/or other homemade moisturizing treatment.
Getting Soft and Shiny HairI shampoo my hair (it's long) about once a week and color about every 6 weeks. My hair is conditioned with the conditioner that comes with the color kit.
Remedies for Dry HairHere are some remedies for dry hair. Change your products to moisture based shampoo and conditioner.
Dealing with Dry HairTo help with dry hair, use a regular conditioner followed by 1/4 cup of vinegar to one cup of water; rinse and your hair will feel amazing. Also air dry when you can, and leave off the flat iron.
Hot Baby Oil Hair TreatmentIf your hair needs conditioning, give your hair a treat and try this hot oil treatment. In a small bottle or medicine container, put 1 tablespoon of generic baby oil, or more depending on how long your hair is.
Mix Styling Gel With Leave-in ConditionerIf you like to use hair gel or styling glaze but don't like the way it dries out your hair, simply mix it with leave-in hair conditioner prior to applying it. The hold is still great, but your hair gets a healthy dose of conditioner, too! No more dry ends!
A Touch of Conditioner for DrynessTis the season, the cold dry weather of winter. When my hair starts to feel very dry on the ends or I have static, I take one or two drops of my conditioner and rub it between my hands and apply where needed. It can be done to hair just washed or dried. You can adjust the amount of conditioner according to hair length or thickness, but less is best.
Vitamin E for Hair RepairFabulous hair repair tip! Vitamin E capsules are a CHEAP and fantastic remedy for dry hair, split ends and damaged hair.
Solution for Dry HairFor dry hair, a solution is as close as your refrigerator. Get that jar of mayonnaise and spread it over your hair until thoroughly saturated. Wrap a towel around your head and leave mayonnaise on for 1/2 hour. Wash until all signs of the mayo are gone. Your hair will be clean and shiny.
