Addressing the "dry hair" issue

It seems that this time of year brings out a lot of complaints about dry hair and lack of moisture. I have found the key to resolving this issue for my hair has been consistent deep conditioning sessions with a thick and creamy deep conditioner.

Has anyone resolved their dry hair issues without deep conditioning? If so, what are your tips. Maybe they can help out others.

The only thing that helps my hair (besides deep conditioning), is what I like to call the "1-2-3 Method".

Step 1: Lightly Spray/Mist (with water & EO's/ Watery Leave-In)
Step 2: Apply a water based moisturizer throughout hair
Step 3: Seal hair with oil (Castor oil is best for me)

And lets not forget tying my hair up while sleeping.

For my hair:
best mister: Darcy's Botanical's Herbal Leave In Spray
best moisturizer: Qhemet Biologics Amla and Olive Heavy Cream
best sealant: Castor Oil (JBCO is best)

KnottyKinkyMommy your 1-2-3 method makes a lot of sense. I'm going to try that with my products.

I agree with KnottyKinkyMommy SMS.

I just bought some of the qhemets & waiting for my order but I do have some oyin honey hemp I have been using that as my leave in and curls curls ecstasty hair tea conditioner as my deep conditioner I also have purchased a hueitful steamer so I hope with the combination of this & trying to do this 2x wkly it will help with dryness

I totally agree with KnottyKinkyMommy, also:

1. Weekly deep conditioning.
2. NOT using products that isn't appropriate for the weather/season (ie. not using products with glycerin when its dry and cold).
3. Protective styles when its cold/dry and when its hot.
4. Washing twice weekly - because I sweat a lot at the gym = dry hair.
5. Pre-poo with oils or oil and food combinations (LOL) like banana, avocado mixed with coconut oil, etc.
