Good Deep Conditioner for Dry Hair Please?
Q) What is a good deep conditioner for dry hair and ends please?My hair is very dry and recently I've had a problem with static electricity. I've read that it's good to try not to wash your hair every day in the winter because it can make it more dry, but if I don't wash my hair, by the second day, it's oily at the roots and brittle at the ends...help..Professional Hair Care Answer - There are several things you can do. Don't apply conditioner to your roots if you use one and you should use a good conditioner especially in the winter and especially if you color or perm your hair. And you are right. You should NOT wash your hair everyday. You are actually stripping your hair of your own natural oils if you do, and this creates static. When you use conditioner don't wash it all out. Leave a bit of it in your hair, just on the mid sections and ends. You don't want your hair 'squeaky clean' after using conditioner. I'm a big fan of John Frieda conditioners To cut down on static, you can use an anti static dryer sheet and rub it on/in your hair. This really helps cut down on static. Using a little gel, wax, or mousse in your hair will help lay the cuticle of your hair down and help control static. You can also apply mayonnaise to your hair ends overnight. Place a cap on your hair and rinse out the next day. Mayonnaise is a great conditioner for dry hair. Winter air is especially dry and so I've found it useful to run a cool air humidifier Another great alternative (especially in the hot summer months when the sun is so HOT!) is to mist water into your hair during the day. Just spritz your hair whenever possible. Olive Oil is a great way to restore moisture and a great conditioner for dry hair and skin. Apply it to your hair overnight with a cap on to protect your pillowcase and sheets and wash your hair the next day. Leave in conditioners Using a shine product in your hair is another great alternative. Just don't overdo or you'll make your hair look greasy instead. And don't apply it to the roots either. Shine products should be used minimally. If you use a blow dryer, set your blow dryer to low heat or let your hair air dry if possible. If your hair is still dry I like to occasionally use a deep conditioning treatment in my hair. You can either use hot oil treatments You might also try rubbing hand lotion into your hair to restore moisture. I do it all the time. If your ends are still dry, I would suggest keeping the ends of it trimmed. You don't need to cut a lot, just little bits at a time. Around 1" should help a lot.
