Treat your dry hair the right way

Dry hair can be caused by chemicals, exposure to sun or water and by the over use of heating tools. All these things damage the hair cuticle, making tresses frizzy and dry and results in split ends. While there are no magic remedies for split ends – they have to be cut off – there are ways to treat your hair and keep it looking luscious.

The first step is to look over your hair care products. Sulphates cleanse, but also dry locks so look for a sulphate-free shampoo if your hair is dry and damaged. You will notice a big difference within five to ten washes. Sulphate-free shampoos are also ideal for curly hair. Also, try to limit hair washing to twice or three times per week.

Use a hair treatment once every seven days to really moisturise tresses. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy - try applying olive oil on your ends and covering with a heated towel for 30 minutes. It does wonders!

When it comes to styling products avoid the ones with alcohol as it dries locks out. Also, make sure to use a clarifying shampoo once a week to get rid of all the build-up that styling products can cause.
