I also created a video to go over these tips, so take a look below. Let's dive into these expert tips for fixing dry, natural hair.
Choose Quality Hair Products
The foundation of healthy, moisturized natural hair starts with the products you use. Opt for products that contain oils and the right hair-hydrating ingredients. When you stick to a great hair care system and use products from the same brand, your hair will experience the full benefits of a well-designed system, promoting moisture and hydration.
Embrace Weekly Hair-Washing
Regular washing is essential to maintaining hydrated and supple hair. Make it a habit to wash your hair weekly to ensure your strands receive the deep hydration they need. Using quality cleansers and conditioners can make a significant difference in keeping your hair supple and less brittle.
Incorporate Steaming
Steaming is a fantastic addition to your hair care routine. It enhances your hair's moisture, shine, and elasticity. Steaming also helps maintain your hair's hydration and moisture levels, leading to longer-lasting, more defined hairstyles.
Protect Your Hair While Sleeping
Sleeping on cotton pillowcases can absorb moisture from your hair and skin, leaving your hair matted and dry. To prevent this, use a silk bonnet or cap or sleep on a satin pillowcase to protect your hair and skin while you sleep. These measures will help maintain your hair's moisture and prevent it from drying out.
Moisturize After Washing
After washing and styling, your hair is at its most moisturized state. Take advantage of this by mixing hair butter with one of Urbanbella's moisturizing creams, milks, or balms. This combination helps break the styling cast and allows the moisture and butter to penetrate your hair while it's at its best-defined state. If you're following the Urbanbella system, this step can make wash day and your entire week more manageable, ensuring long-lasting hydration.
Conclusion
Achieving well-hydrated, healthy, natural hair doesn't have to be a challenge. Follow these five tips to combat dryness and enjoy the benefits of well-moisturized natural hair. Remember to choose quality products, wash your hair weekly, incorporate steaming, protect your hair while sleeping, and moisturize effectively after washing.
