I have a question regarding dry hair care. What are some dry hair treatments or routines? How often should I shampoo my hair?
Hello, I'm not a member, but I do read the site now and again. I'm a mom with long hair, and have a nearly 17-year-old son who has hair just past his shoulders. Does that qualify me to commment? ;-) I'd recommend shampooing as INfrequently as good hygiene allows, avoiding blow-dryers and most styling products, and using a natural product, like real mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip!) or a good extra virgin olive oil on the ends every two weeks or so.
When your hair is damp, apply warm olive oil on the last couple of inches, the dryest part, and then wrap it up with plastic wrap and then a towel. Go sit in the sun and let your 'hair salad' marinate in the warmth for 20-30 minutes. Wash it out with a very mild baby shampoo and let it air dry. Mayonnaise works in the same way, because it is made of egg yolk (protein) and oil. Good luck!
