2. Oil Up

Once you have your body hydrated well enough to support healthy hair, you need to keep the water in your locks. Treating your hair with oil can further enhance the hydration of your hair and soften its texture.

Oil treatments for hair come in two primary forms: moisturizing oils and sealing oils. Moisturizing oils open up the pores and penetrate the hair itself to add moisture. For that reason, they work best before shampooing when they can help other products work their way into the hair.

Sealing oils, in contrast, lock the moisture into the hair. That same mechanism means it can keep moisture out; applying it too early in the regime can exacerbate dryness. But, with the right timing, sealing oils add fantastic shine and long-lasting hydration.

3. Wash Wisely

Good news! Coarse, dry hair might signal that you can get away with less frequent washing. Shampoo strips oil away from the hair and scalp, which opens it up to dryness and removes much of the nourishment that keeps hair soft and supple.

With less frequent washing, your body gets more time to adjust the production of natural oils, and your hair gets less stress, minimizing breakage and frizzing. Added bonus? Less washing means less money spent on hair products and water.

Certain products can have a more prolonged impact on your hair’s texture, which also sweetens the deal. You spend a little more time at once, fewer times per week, to get a better look.

4. Shop Around

When it comes to hair care, one size will never fit all. Everyone’s body chemistry has subtle differences that make their hair respond slightly differently to various products. If your hair doesn’t improve, don’t get discouraged, and don’t be afraid to try something different.

Finding a product that works for you might require shopping around a little bit.
