Four Reasons Why Your Hair is Dry

Are you experiencing breakage and you’re unsure why? Your hair could be crying out for your attention because it’s dry. Let’s discuss four reasons why your hair is dry:

1. You’re dehydrated. You’re not drinking enough water - Water IS moisture. Drink more water, be more moisturized. If you’re not a big fan of water by itself, try adding strawberries, orange slices, cucumber slices, or mint to make the taste more palatable.
2. You’re not sealing in enough moisture - Sealants trap moisture in your hair. After washing and deep conditioning my hair, I gently towel dry my hair and then apply a deep moisturizing leave in conditioner. Then, I apply our Strengthening Nourishing Hair & Scalp oil to my hair shaft and ends. Finally, I *SEAL* my hair with a moisturizing cream - concentrating on the ends, which helps lock in all the hard work I just did. I reapply the oil and moisturizing cream every 1-2 days. We’re in the process of curating our own shampoos and deep conditioners for your natural hair and for your Good Protective Sis. In the meantime, we’ll share a few of our faves in the posts to come.
3. You’re using the wrong shampoo - Does your hair feel rubbery while washing it? This is a sign that you’re using the wrong shampoo. Your hair should feel silky and full while shampooing, and it should definitely feel healthy and full while deep conditioning. If you’re using a shampoo thats the wrong pH for your hair type, then it can wreak havoc on your hair. Also be sure that your shampoo isn’t stripping your hair of its necessary oils. Perhaps incorporate more co-washes between cleanses, as opposed to full washes.
4. You’re not protecting your hair - Sun, snow, cold wind and hail may not stop you from having to go to work, but it can impact your hair. It’s hard out “hair,” sis! Your skin and your hair deal with a lot! Direct contact with constant outdoor elements can lead to preventable suffering like dry skin, dry hair, dry scalp, cracked lips, and more. And what have we learned? That dryness leads to breakage.
