maybe it is your scalp being dry and you need to get a scalp treatment to then allow healthy hair to grow through it.

or try vo5 hot oil.

it depends what else you put on our hair, too much treatments and chemicals are bad for the hair, things like sprays and mousses are not as good as advertised, also try a change in diet, and take a vitamin suppliment, and dont expect it all to work over night, give your self a 4 week mission, taking a multi vitamin, and use a good quality shampoo, and matching conditioner. See what happens,..,,..,

sounds abit drastic, but perhaps its time that you had a hair cut. Cut short. I used to have the same problem, and my hair went down almosy to my waist, and afew weeks ago, I went to the hairdresser, and we decided to cit it to a short bob, .Its now at the nape of my neck. Its much better condition. Thats my advice.

It could be a number of things. Is your hair colored? If so, do you color your hair at home or go to the salon? Home hair dye kits are really bad for your hair and can make it incredibly dry and brittle. It is best to go to a salon where they use professional quality products with less chemicals and harmful agents.

Do you use any heated styling tools like curling or straightening irons or a hair dryer? If you do try to cut down on how often you use them. Let your hair dry naturally and wear it up more often to avoid over styling.

Using conditioners normally doesn't always help when hair is really dry. What you need to do is buy a deep conditioning mask. Put this all over your hair (be generous) and then comb it through gently. Once you have done this, don't rinse it, put a shower cap or towel over your Head to keep the heat in and leave the conditioner on for as long as you feel necessary. I'd say an hour should do the trick. Then rinse it off and your hair should feel much softer. hope this helps.

Are you eating the right food? plenty of healthy foods can stop your hair drying out. Also try taking a cod liver oil or omega 3 supplement as they have helped my hair and skin and stopped them from drying out. The most important thing is to start from the inside. There are also specific hair skin and nails supplements that are available that can make a difference. Hair dyes and products also affect hair so try to stay away from these and also hair dryers.

Apply oil(almond oil)

First what conditioners and shampoos have you used. Check the ingredients, if alcohol is one of the first 3 that is one reason why they don't work. Alcohol will majorly dry out your hair.

2nd- How often do you wash your hair. If you have naturally dry scalp washing it everyday (and these washing out what few natural oils your body gives it) isn't helping. Washing every other day (or every third) and just rinsing through it on the other days can help.

3rd- What is your hair texture. If it is curly it is possible to use conditioner to wash your hair. It will make your curls softer, and keep you hair from getting as dry.

4th- Ultimately oil is one way to be sure you hair is moisturized. Oil treatments help a lot (VO5 etc) also using Cholesterol as a deep conditioner. Or applying a light oil, (coconut, almond, olive etc) may be the best. If you don't like oils (which I understand)there are plenty of leave in conditioners and protein cremes that will add moister and strength.

i used to have the same problem as yours. my friend used to introduce me a product known as Shaklee where i try using the product's shampoo and conditioner and guess what. it works and my hair looks more healthier too. you should try get one and use it. in malaysia it only cost round RM100 to RM200 (US$50-US$100). or i can help you buy. heheh. also, another reason is that you don't have enough vitamins in your body. so, you should take more supplements to enable you blood stream to flow smoothly until your head. any information, mail me then at my_hollium@yahoo.com
