Useful tips for dry hair care

The main signs of dry and damaged hair include increased brittleness, dry scalp, dull color, and dandruff. This problem is caused by insufficient moisture. It happens when the sebaceous glands, situated in the scalp, don’t produce the necessary amount of fat. There may be several reasons for this: avitaminosis, diseases of the nervous system, malnutrition, or frequent use of hair dryers and curlers.

Tips from the experts:

• Do not wash your hair too often. If you have dry hair, you need 2-3 washing per week.
• Use only moisturizing shampoo for “daily use”. It contains the minimum amount of aggressive substances that dry strands.
• Wash your hair with warm or cool water.
• Use hair conditioner or balm after each wash.
• Don’t ignore hair masks, which should be used no more than 3-4 times a week.
• Do not rub your hair after washing with a towel. It is enough to wrap your head for only a few minutes to remove excess moisture.
• Do not comb damp strands. You need to use a comb with sparse teeth.
• Avoid a hairdryer. If needed, use the gentle mode with cool air.
• Don’t dry your hair too often. If possible, color only overgrown roots.
