5 Days To Revitalize Abused And Dry Hair

Does dry hair give you bad hair days? Ten percent of moisture content is an average for any kind of hair. Below this average point, you need to take care and retain some moisture for your hair. We will try and tell you how you can do the same in five days. Follow the instructions mentioned.

The most important step here is to detect the reason for the dryness of your hair. Other than natural environmental dryness some other minor reasons might be excessive washing, blow drying too often, alcohol or harsh detergents. Major reasons might be hypothyroidism, hyperparathyroidism, anorexia nervosa and malnutrition. 

The simple definition of dry hair could be described as the hair that contains insufficient moisture or oil content for maintaining a normal texture and shine. If you are suffering from one of the above major causes mentionedvor if you don't retain moisture after these five days, we advise you consult a professional in health care.

The first day put away your blow dryer and styling products. Give your dry hair a break and save them the damage these products cause. Let the hair dry naturally and then head to a salon to get a minimum of an inch of length chopped off. Make your hair free of any build-up of hair products you have been using. Either just rinse hair after shampooing or apply a mix of equal parts of shampoo and baking soda.

Using a gentle shampoo make sure you shampoo in these five days either once or maximum twice. That would provide a chance for some oils to be produced and also replacement of some moisture into your hair shafts, Use heavy conditioner after you shampoo your hair, taking more efforts to apply at the ends. Conditioner can be applied in thick layers and left onto the hair for a while after you are done bathing, the heat or steam will allow the conditioner to go through your hair shaft.

Try some moisture infusing treatments for your hair within the five days. Use some almond oil that is ultra hydrating after the conditioning and shampooing process and pin up your hair forming a neat bun. Use safflower oil once your hair dries up. Though it is comparatively expensive, safflower oil is available in any local supermarket. This oil contains humectants that attract moisture to be retained in hair cortex. Sebum is a fatty acid produced by the scalp and is essential. To apply safflower oil, hold your palms tightly over your hair, with a few drops of the oil on the palm. Start applying from the ends and move upwards. Leave the oil in the hair for a bit.

During the course of these five days once or twice apply a mask of mashed avocado to your hair. Leave a towel over a plastic wrap after the mask is applied. You need to use some heat for the avacado, try a hair dryer. After 20-60 minutes you may wash your hair. Repeat the almond oil and conditioner process as above. Your hair now should be softer, smoother and shinier!
