Ways to Maintain Sufficient Hydration in Your Hair

Dry hair is one of the first sign of damaged hair and often a promoter of further degradation of hair quality.  Therefore, it is essential to maintain sufficient hydration and avoid moisture loss in your locks. The following steps can be taken to protect hair from damage.

• Avoid Hot Water Showers: Hot water causes immense dehydration in the scalp and hair. Not only does it causes frizziness, but it also leads to building up of dead skin cells on the scalp.
• Oiling: Olive oil, argan oil and coconut oil massages are an amazing way to bring back lost hydration. Cold pressed oil is the best to provide maximum nourishment to the hair and scalp.
• Aloe Vera: The miracle plant-aloe vera is known to combat dryness most efficiently. It is composed of vitamins A, C, E, folic acid, choline, B1, B2, B3 (niacin) and B6 all of which provide health and shine to the hair strands.
• Ingredients List: If you suffer from specific problems like dryness, look for hair products, shampoos and conditioner which are specially formulated to increase moisture content to the hair. Usually, products containing aloe vera, cucumber, coconut, honey, apricots etc are meant for dry hair. Also, try using sulfate-free shampoos.
• Deep Condition: It is important to deep condition at least once in two weeks. However, if you are suffering from excessive moisture loss, then deep condition more often. You can DIY a mask by smashing 2 bananas and mixing them with 1 tablespoon each of coconut oil and honey.
• Environmental Protection: Standing bareheaded in sun or wind can dry out the hair very fast. Protect them using a scarf or headgear while you are out and about.
• Minimize Hoot Tools: Styling your hair with a blow drier, flat iron or curling tongs can too contribute to loss of hydration. Either minimize their use or use a heat protectant serum for a layer of protection from excessive heat.

Keeping the hair hydrated makes it shiny, bouncy and healthy. On the other hand, moisture loss causes dryness, frizziness, tangled hair and hair loss.
