Dry hair really sucks. Their is no other word for it. Dry air has split ends, is frizzy, is dull, and is plain lifeless. Getting rid of dry hair isn't all that hard. You just have to take time and just a little money to get your hair silky and shiny. Even just going in your fridge can be the way to fix dry hair. Here are some tips on how to get your dry hair silky with little time and little money spent.

Hair Masks- This is the best way to get rid of dry hair and it's the cheapest. All of these products you can find in your kitchen. They are cheap easy to find and all can be mixed together to make an even better hair mask.

1) HONEY (or just add a little honey to your shampoo and it will help)

2) AVOCADO (a natural conditioner and a very vitamin rich)

3) MILK (preferably whole milk)

4) COCONUT MILK (is the best product for dry hair + it smells great)

5) OLIVE OIL ( sometimes is often harder to get out of the hair but it does a good job getting rid of dryness)

6) EGG WHITES (*do not put the yokes in your hair they are impossible to get out)

7) MAYONNAISE (best for a silky shine)

8) YOGURT (gets rid of buildup and puts moisture in the hair.

9) HERSHEY'S SYRUP (sounds extremely odd but it does a great job at giving hair moisture and shine)

10) FRUIT MASKS (of any sort will give more nutrients and moisture to your hair. Plus the stuff you don't use you can eat :-D)

Quick Tip#1- If you find hair masks aren't enough add conditioner to them or add conditioner to you hair after you lather and rinse it.

Quick Tip #2- Make sure not to fry your hair with hot irons of any sort. If you absolutely have to use them put a protection serum on your hair before using irons. Protection serums can be found in any hair care store. And before drying you hair put a non frizz serum on your hair. This will protect your hair from the heat keeping away further damage.

Quick Tip #3- Leave in conditioners. Are great after you are done with showering. They put the moisture in you hair and keeps it their all day.

I hope you found these tips helpful to fix your dry hair. Remember that if you have split ends to get them cut off or else the hair will completely split. Get a trim every 2-3 months to keep away the split ends. Maybe skip a shower here and their to get some of your natural oils into your hair. Don't over dye your hair either this is a no no; it will just make you hair brittle. Good luck with your hair.
