Hey you guys,
today's post is on the important's of moisturizing and protecting your hair.
Have you ever had split ends, dry hair or breakages ? Then you will understand how annoying it is. Especially if you are trying to grow your hair out, and all it does is break up.
The reason and solution for this is pretty simple. You need and moisture !!
Just like your skin the hair also needs nourishment. If your hair drys out then its prone to damage !
Which leads to dry scarecrow hair D:

So how can you add moisture into your hair and prevent it from damage ? Easy !! Just follow these steps and you too can have luscious locks.
You will need:
* Paddle brush
* Shampoo for dry hair
*Nourishing conditioner
*Hair oil
* Leave-in conditioner
All these items are available at your drugstore...
Step 1. Washing your hair is important, because it gets rid of dirt and cleans your hair follicles. Which in turn improves hair growth ( it also stops your hair from looking greasy and gross D: ) ,
but in order feel the benefits from washing your hair its important to use the right shampoo. If you have dry hair use a shampoo that is designed for dry hair. I like to use Vo5 intense hydration for dry hair and Vo5 nourish me truly for damaged hair. I am Afro-Caribbean so my hair gets dry quiet easily, but i find that this shampoo always makes my hair feel silky and smooth, but doesn't make my hair feel weighed down, like some hair shampoo's do.
2. Once you have washed your hair, you want to lock in the water and moisture that you have just added. So you will need a hair oil or leave-in conditioner to keep the moisture in the hair. Towel dry / blot your hair so that its not dripping wet. Depending on thickness and length of your hair take the hair oil or conditioner and place in the palm of your hand, using your finger tips, work the product into your scalp and finger tips. If you hair is very dry work the product all over. Your hair will soak up the oil that it needs off your hands.
You can use any natural oil in your hair, Coconut oil and Argan oil are very popular and widely available. I love the smell of Aragn oil and this leave conditioner by nakedbodycare made from all natural ingredients !!
Naked styles leave-in conditioner already has Argan oil in it, so if you don't want to use just an oil then this conditioner is perfect. I love NakedStyles product range because it is all natural. Normally after washing my hair i will use Aragan oil, then for the days i don't wash my hair i use leave-in conditioner.
Over washing your hair can cause the hair to be come dry, weak and damaged. Of course if you have very greasy hair then you will need to wash it more often. I started using hair oils and leave-in conditioners, only last week and have already noticed a massive difference.
Did you know i only wash my hair at the most, twice a week !!
3. Finally, choose a hair brush that wont snag your hair. 5/10x using the wrong hair brush will break your hair up. I like to use a flat paddle brush as it doesn't tug my hair as much.
All items are available at your local boots or Superdrug?
I hope this helps some people, this is what has worked for me, but might not work with everyone. Try out different products and find out what works best with your hair. I too know how annoying dry hair can be, after all we ALL have bad hair days .
