How to moisturize hair

If your hair likes to frizz up uncontrollably or your ends won’t stop splitting, you might have a dryness problem. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to sort it out, and knowing how to moisturize hair is a good start. Here are some hair hydration tips you can use.

Tips on how to moisturize hair daily

If your hair’s persistently dry, you might be using hair products that aren’t suitable for your hair type. Make sure your shampoo and conditioner are designed for dry hair.

Cotton pillowcases will absorb moisture from your hair. Sleep on silk or satin instead.

Dry air, dry hair. If the air in your home is generally dry, try running a humidifier in your room while you sleep.

Try using a hair mask once a week. It’s a deep conditioning treatment that can offer incredible hair hydration.

Coconut oil¹is one of the best home remedies for dry hair. On very dry hair days, massage it into your hair, paying more attention to the lengths than to the roots. Cover your hair with a shower cap for half an hour, then wash the oil out completely.

Avoiding frizzy hair: easy on the heat

Frying your hair can turn it frizzy. If you’re constantly applying high heat to your hair – hairdryers, straighteners, curling irons – it can dry out the strands and ultimately cause damage. That’s obviously not what you want when your goal is hair hydration.

Of course, ‘don’t use heat’ is easier said than done. Sometimes you’ll need to blow your hair dry, so make sure you have a hairdryer with heat protection technology.

Before using any product that applies heat to your hair, prepare your hair with some heat protectant.

How to get rid of frizzy hair fast

Sometimes, knowing how to moisturize hair daily over the long term isn’t what you need. You’ve got frizzy hair, and you want to know how to fix it right now. Here’s how to get rid of frizzy hair before your guests arrive or when you’re going out at short notice:

Use an anti-frizz product, such as hair serum.

Put some hairspray on your brush or comb before brushing your hair.

A leave-in conditioning spray is quick to apply and will help your hair lie flat.

Of course, all of those are professional products. If you want home remedies for dry hair instead, there’s good news: some cooking oils can be used as hair moisturizers. Put a few drops of olive oil in your hands, rub them together and comb them through your hair. Coconut oil also works for this.

If all else fails, tie your hair up in a bun to hide the frizz.
