Tips for Helping Dry Lifeless Hair

* Use a shampoo once a week that removes build up of styling products
* Supplements geared especially for hair do work and will help with shine, health and growth
* Once a week use a topical oil on your hair such as Argon, Coconut or even something like VO5 Hot Oil Treatment
* Remember your mom telling you to brush your hair 100 times each day? It does work! Brushing your hair helps to distribute oils from your scalp throughout your hair.
* Drink plenty of water every day
* Eat a well balanced diet full of veggies and proteins like walnuts, lentils, eggs, greek yogurt, spinach.
* Get plenty of sleep
* Reduce the amount of heat appliances you use on your hair. Let your hair go free a few days a week

Taking care of your hair really starts from the inside, but you can improve the look, feel and health of your hair by combining all of these tips. Here is to better looking hair in a just few weeks!

    These are great tips for helping my hair. I find that as I go=row older my hair has become more dry and thinning. I am going to brush my hair more and reduce the heat.

  2. I think heat appliances can really damage hair. I don’t really think those heat pretreatments work either. I was guilty of using the curling iron way too much as a teen!

    Thank you for the great tips on keeping your hair from becoming dry and lifeless. I found Argon Oil, and use it several times a week, it really does work.

  4. I swim 3 times a week and shampoo and condition my hair afterwords. I use a hair dryer very seldom.

    Boy, my hair seems to get worse every year. It used to be really full & a little bit too oily if I didn’t wash it every day. now it’s thinning & dry! I guess it really does change as you age.

  6. Thanks for this one great tips that I had not known about. I have noticed that my hair looks and feels so much better since I stopped washing it everyday and it has been growing like a weed. I also only use the hair dryer when I have to.
