Hey Beauty Vibers!

So now that we’ve conquered dry skin, let’s go on to something I personally suffer from occasionally; dry hair!

These are some of the tips I use to combat dry hair.

1. Use a condition after shampooing- I am so surprised when people tell me they don’t use a conditioner on their hair. How can you not use a conditioner, then say your hair is dry? Using a conditioner is not a step to be skipped, because of this, I often use a conditioner between my shampoo days. If my hair is feeling dry, I’ll drench it in water, apply a conditioner, detangle, and wash the conditioner out, then style as usual.
2. Leave a little of your conditioner in to keep the hair moisturized. I like to do this, especially with all natural conditioners like the Alikay Caribbean Coconut Milk Conditioner. This leaves my hair feeling really soft and helps with manageability when styling.
3. Use conditioners that hydrate the hair with ingredients such as shea butter, jojoba oil, olive oil, wheat germ.
4. Use a moisturizing leave-in conditioner. Yes, I’ll leave a little of the conditioner on my hair, but following that I like to use my Kinky Curly Knot Today leave-in conditioner or my Alikay Naturals Lemongrass Leave-in to give my hair more moisture and slip, making it even easier for styling.
5. Deep condition regularly, I do this weekly. When I decide to deep condition my hair, I rinse all the conditioner out then apply my deep conditioning treatment. My favourite right now is the Alikay Naturals Honey and Sage Deep Conditioner, which leaves my hair looking and feeling amazing!
6. MOISTURIZE! After you’ve styled your hair, you want to make sure you keep it moisturized throughout the week. I spray some water on my hair in sections before applying my Alikay Naturals Moisture Rich Hair Parfait to keep my hair moisturized throughout the week. This product is very concentrated so you really only need a little. I rub it between my hands and then apply it to my hair.
