Shampoo and Conditioner
To maintain moisture in dry hair, it is advisable to select products specifically designed for this purpose. Opt for sulfate-free shampoos, as sulfates create the lather that can lead to hair dryness. Additionally, a conditioning treatment can be used in place of shampoo once a week or more frequently if needed. This conditioner should be left on the hair for 10 to 20 minutes before rinsing. Alternatively, one can apply the conditioner and leave it in overnight, covering the hair with a plastic cap, and rinse it out in the morning.
