JAKARTA - Healthy, smooth, and thick hair is everyone's dream. However, when hair feels dry to the touch, it will also be brittle and difficult to style. If the look of the hair is not good enough, of course the mood can also be affected.
Having dry hair doesn't mean you have a health problem or that something is wrong with your hair. Several factors such as sun exposure, heat styling, humidity, smoking, and many more can cause hair to become damaged and dry.
Even so, you don't need to worry because there are several ways to solve it. The bonus is that it's a homey method that doesn't cost a fortune like salon treatments.
Quoting information from the Healthline website, Friday, February 5, the following VOI summarizes five dry and fluffy hair treatments that you can do at home:
Cut hair
If your hair is too dry, it may need to be re-styled in a new cut. This is because split ends can make hair unruly and make it feel dry or rough.
You can go to a salon to get the cut you want. If you want to minimize costs, you can also cut your own with guides from videos on the internet.
Avoid shampooing every day
Shampoo removes dirt and sweat from hair, but also removes sebum (a natural oil) in hair. The function of sebum is to make hair easier to care for and if the amount is right, it can make hair shiny.
Too often shampooing causes hair to lose sebum, making it look dry. It is recommended to wash your hair at least once every two days. If you can't pass a day without shampooing, it's better to use a special shampoo for dry hair or you can try baby products.
Dry your hair with a cloth
If hair is brittle and difficult to style after shampooing, it could be because it lost too much moisture during the drying process.
Try wrapping your hair in a cloth or towel after shampooing instead of using a blow dryer as a dryer.
Take a cold shower
Hot water for bathing can also make hair hot. A cold shower has several health benefits, one of which makes hair grow faster.
After shampooing, rinse your hair under cooler water for a minute or two to revitalize the strands and refresh your scalp.
Use Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is a natural moisturizer that fills in the gaps in the hair if it has been damaged by heat or the sun. Using coconut oil on your hair regularly can improve your hair's overall appearance.
How to use it is to rub a little coconut oil between your palms before applying it. After that, apply and focus on the ends, crown of the head, and hair roots.
