Why Is Your Hair So Dry?

Combating Parched Locks: Getting to the Root of Dry Hair Woes

Limp, brittle, unmanageable hair plaguing your daily routine? You're not alone. Many suffer from perplexing dryness despite diligent conditioning efforts. Read on to uncover common culprits and customised solutions to restore your hair's health, moisture and vibrancy.

Key Causes of Dry Hair

Getting to the root of the issue requires examining your unique habits, environment and biology:

Harsh shampoos - Sulfate-heavy cleansers strip away protective oils leaving hair parched.
Over-washing - Excessive shampooing dries hair by removing too much moisture and sebum.
Heat tools - Heat styling without protectants evaporates water in the hair cuticle leading to crispy, damaged texture.
Chlorine & salt - Swimming in pools or ocean often results in dry, tangly hair due to chemical/mineral content.
Sun & pollution - UV rays and environmental toxins degrade the cuticle protective layer causing moisture leak.
Insufficient conditioning - Not properly hydrating and nourishing strands leaves hair thirsty and brittle.
Nutrient deficiencies - Inadequate protein, vitamins and minerals in diet can manifest in weak, parched hair.
Medical conditions - Issues like thyroid disorders may also trigger excess dryness.

Getting to know your hair's unique needs takes some sleuthing. But pays off with the right solutions.

Customising Your Approach

With the likely culprit identified, create a personalised regimen:

Gentler shampoo - Opt for sulfate-free cleansers that won't strip away natural oils.
Condition, condition, condition - Hydrate parched strands with masks and leave-in conditioners.
Limit heat - Let hair air dry when possible and use protectants when heat styling.
Rinse cold - Cold water helps seal in moisture better than hot water.
Humidify - Use appliances and steamy showers to add moisture to the air preventing water evaporating from hair.
Supplement diet - Increase healthy fats, vitamins/minerals shown to enhance hair hydration.
Scalp massages - Improves circulation so scalp nutrients better reach hair follicles.
Explore remedies - Try oils, leave-ins and shampoos with natural humectants.
