Very Dry Hair: What to do?
Causes
Our hair reacts very quickly to our lifestyle and how we treat it. The three major causes of dry hair are:
- Biological factor: a genetic defect related to sebum secretion
- External aggressor factors: sun, pollution, cold, wind, salt water, chlorine, etc.
- Care factors: ill-adapted care, inadequate brushing, heat styling, chemical treatments, etc.
Bad habits to be avoided
To transform hair that’s as dry as straw into hair as soft as silk, certain habits are to be avoided.
Avoid:
- Shampoing too often or too aggressively
- Brushing too hard
- Sulfates or silicones
- Repeated or too-powerful chemical treatments
Good reflexes to adopt
Hair rehydration doesn’t just happen by itself. Haircare that will treat your dried-out hair is needed!
Use:
- A hydrating shampoo and conditioner
- An ultra-nourishing mask (a crucial step to overcome nutrient deficiencies)
- Dry shampoo (to let you spread out shampoos)
- Adequate care (thermal protection, nourishing oil, etc.)
Keep in mind
Use of adapted products and their applications directly impact your hair’s health. You just have to adopt good habits!
