    I use WEN on my hair, its a cream shampoo/conditioner in one..bit expensive but works wonders!

    You can just use V05 or suave, the cheap ones, and they suds up and clean. It's called CO washing.

    Also Monoi oil is amazing for hair.

    Yep! It sure is, because it's coconut oil!

    Don't shampoo every day. Unless you use a million crazy products every day because you're a professional model or something you don't need it & you're stripping your hair.

    I condition my hair every day when I shower & shampoo maybe 3xs a week, like every 3rd day.

    I also found that Head & Shoulders shampoo or a generic version is more gentle in that aspect.

    Coconut oil is amazing, you put it on your hair and leave it on for about an hour. Wash it out and your hair will be amazing and soft! My hair was super dry and brittle so I decided to try it out...I used it 2 days ago and my hair is still silky and not dry at all!

    I am a hairdresser and this is by far the best conditioning treatment I have ever used!

    outside in. eat more omega 3s and other good fat, as well as staying hydrated .

    you can also try using humectants like honey and castor then using a moisture sealant like jojoba oil

    definitely coconut oil. i can't stand not washing my hair after a workout, and coconut oil keeps my hair moisturized for a few days.

    Hi hun! I'm a hairstylist and this is a common problem this time of year. Everyone says not to shampoo, but I know my hair is GROSS if I don't shampoo every day. The shampoo and conditioner I use Is Bed Head Urban Antidote #1 (its the one in the green bottle) If that still isn't enough moisture, try using a conditioning hair mask. Biolage has a really good line for dry hair-hydrating. (purple). Don't be afraid to use an additional leave-in moisturizer. Healthy Sexy has a good one, also It's A 10. If you have any other questions, my pro facebook page is facebook.com/jmariinbeauty Feel free to message me!

    Thin hair does NOT equal oily hair. No particular type can, because oil has nothing to do with hair and everything to do with sebaceous production of the glands in the scalp. However, there is some support that excessive washing can cause an increase in production due to stripping the protective skin oils of the scalp.

    Bottom line though, once you give it a try for a bit, the vast majority of people find things settle down fairly quickly.

    Extra tip, baby powder or corn starch or its substitutes work well as dry shampoo if your hair is light. But if it isn't, in a pinch, cocoa powder works on darker hair, even my red hair. And you will smell delicious. :)

    Paul Mitchell Moisture is really good. However, like others have said, you should not wash your hair so frequently as it robs it of its natural oils. I sweat my butt off at the gym 5-7 days/week and only shampoo 2-3 times per week. I too have dry hair.
