Elminate harsh shampoos that contain sodium lauryl sulfate, or any similiar type of sulfate detergents. These ingredients strip the moisture from your hair and cause excessive dryness and breakage.
Do not use petroleum based products as your primary source of daily hair moisture. This heavy oil is best used as an added layer of protection since it is unable to penetrate the hair shaft and provide proper moisture.
Select natural shampoos and conditioners that contain detangling properties to help with comb-outs and prevent breakage.
Select daily moisturizers that are water based that contain natural oils and herbs to provide maximum moisture replenishment.
Purchase satin or silk material head wraps to tie your hair down. Cotton wraps and scarves snag against your hair and cause breakage, while the rough texture depeletes the natural moisture in the hair.
Select rich, emollient conditioners for your deep conditioning treatments. Avoid thin moisturizing conditioners that simply have nice smells.
Select hair growth oils that include essential oils as the primary ingredient(s) after the carrier base oil. Avoid watered down oils and creams that claim to provide results, but do not provide quality ingredients to back up their claims.
