5 tips to take care of your dry hair
Dry hair is the source of many hair problems, damaged hair, split ends, difficulties when brushing appear... But how to take care of your rough hair? Should you moisturize or nourish dry hair? We give you our advice to regain healthy hair!
The hair is dry because it does not produce enough sebum, this type of hair is porous and in most cases hereditary. But dry hair can also be caused by external factors like wind, sun, and even pollution! This hair is particularly fragile and hypersensitive. They require special attention, otherwise, they can become brittle and irreparable!
How to treat very dry and damaged hair
Dry hairneeds more care than other hair types, it must be hydrated to avoid dull and rough hair, but also nourished to fight against split ends. In addition, certain everyday gestures should be avoided so as not to over-sensitize the hair fiber.
1 ) Pay attention to small daily aggressions
If you are not careful, the hair can quickly be sensitized by gestures made daily:
- If the hair shows signs of dryness, avoid bleaching which strips and erases the little sebum that protects the hair. We also space out the colorings as much as possible because they dry out the hair even more than it already is.
- We accept our natural hair, forgetting the heating appliances such as the straightener, the curler, and if possible even the hair dryer! We prefer drying in the open air.
- Because the hair lacks sebum, shampoos that dry out the lengths are spaced out as much as possible. In short, we only wash when the hair is greasy!
2) Choose the right shampoo : what shampoo for dry and damaged hair?
The most important thing for the hair is to opt for a shampoo with a natural composition to provide the hair with all the active ingredients it needs. Indeed, industrial shampoos, in particular those composed of sulfate, dry out the hair and suffocate the hair fiber, depriving the hair of hydration and nutrition.
Innersense's Hydrating Cream natural shampoo with natural ingredients such as coconut oil, shea butter and avocado cleans hair deeply and moisturizes instantly.
We opt for a gentle shampoo with moisturizing active ingredients such as Cut By Fred moisturizing liquid shampoo which restores shine and lightness or nourishing such as John Masters Organics Citrus & Geranium Nourishing Daily Shampoo which strengthens and softens the hair.

Use nourishing care with rich ingredients
Dry hair needs to be nourished AND hydrated, one does not go without the other. When the lengths are dry, the scalp is also dry, which is what destabilizes the entire hair fiber. This is why it is necessary to use products composed of rich to fatty ingredients to nourish and repair the hair fiber in depth.
Composed of vegetable oils, the Feed Madara repairing hair mask nourishes and protects dry hair. The hair is strengthened, silky and supple!

4 ) Carry out oil baths
Theoil bath is the ultimate treatment for deeply nourishing dry hair. In effect, the benefits of the oils will help strengthen the hair fiber from the inside to avoid brittle hair. Hair regains softness and shine. To proceed with the oil bath, simply apply one or more oils to the unwashed lengths and leave on for a few hours, or even overnight if possible! We then shampoo it to remove all oil residue.
What oil for dry and brittle hair
To choose the right oils for dry hair, we favor vegetable oils which have many more properties than mineral oils. We opt for pure quality oils (first pressing) because the oil's quality will repair and nourish dry hair. Regarding the choice of oils, we prefer ultra nourishing oils such as argan, coconut, and olive oil, if the latter is of good quality.
You can also opt for ready-to-use oil treatments such as On The Wild Side hair care oilwhich nourishes and restores shine and softness to the hair. Or the Mon Huilette Hair hair serum, which can be used as an oil bath or as a finishing oil, for fortified and revitalized hair.
Finally, Shaeri Paris multi-purpose care oil deeply nourishes the hair. Formulated from prickly pear seed oil, an oil particularly effective on dry and dehydrated hair, it restores softness, suppleness and shine to the hair.
5) Pay attention to your diet
To have healthy hair, it goes through the interior and the hygiene of life, for that we diversify our diet as much as possible to be sure not to miss anything. If the body is deficient and lacks vitamins, the hair will be weakened. We prefer ingredients rich invitamin A, present in colored foods, such as melon, carrots, or tomatoes. Or in vitamin B5 present in mushrooms, salmon, eggs, turkey, or even offal!
To give our body a little boost, we can turn to food supplements, as We want... A Mermaid Hair Atelier Nubio which strengthens and coats the hair for more vitality and radiance!
