Dry hair is very common among
naturals.Because of our hair pattern
especially those like me in the type 4
range,moisture takes longer to go down
our strands & by that time,it might have
evaporated.

We hear the the word ‘moisture’ every
time yet some over look it.My hair drinks
moisture like crazy & not giving it that
leads to dryness which leads to
breakage.

For some,their hair just doesn’t hold
moisture no matter how frequently they
moisturize.Below I’ve written some
solutions & tips for dry hair & breakage.

Dry hair & breakage tips & solutions:

1) Add a humectant to your regimen
Humectants are simply substances that
attract & hold on to water.Examples are
honey,aloe vera & glycerine. Add them to
your leave ins,moisturizers, conditioners &
deep conditioners. This is especially for
those whose hair find it hard to hold
moisture.eg of a leave in with glycerin,see
my post Simple Glycerin Leave In Spritz
For Dry Hair

2) For breakage do protein treatments
Does your hair feel & look limp & lifeless ?
You might need a protein treatment. Your
hair is made up of protein & a weak hair
structure needs it.I love Africa’s best hair
mayonnaise because it’s also a leave in
protein treatment.

3) Check your shampoo
Some Shampoos can dry out your hair &
make your conditioner seem ineffective.
Avoid conditioners containing ‘ sulphates’ .A
simple test to know if your shampoo dries
out your hair is to check how your hair
feels after using it & before applying a
conditioner.To prevent hair drying out
from shampoos,do a pre poo.

4) Do the loc method of moisturizing
In the loc method,you apply a water based
leave in or just water,an oil then a creamy
moisturizer or butter.This ensures that the
moisture from the leave in doesn’t
evaporate,leaving your hair dry in an hour.
