How Oils Are Making Your Hair Dry

Imagine walking around with greasy dry hair. Sounds crazy to have greasy dry hair but it is possible and we promise you it’s not sexy. When you don’t use oils properly, they can make your hair dry. Here’s a little secret how to keep your hair moisturized so you can have sexy curls.  

Before we tell you what to do, let’s focus on what to avoid.  DO NOT APPLY OIL DIRECTLY TO DRY HAIR. Oils are not moisturizers they are sealers. Sealers are used to lock in the moisture and prevent it from escaping. Oil should be used to lock in already moisturized hair. Applying oil on top of dry hair is only going to seal in dryness.   

To bring your sexy curls back try this instead. First, use water or a water based product to moisturize your hair. We suggest the Knotty Nectar Leave-In Conditioner followed by the Sweet Cream Daily Moisturizer. Then apply a light coating of oil (try the Flower Bomb Hair Growth Oil) to your naturally curly hair to lock in the moisture.  Now you are fighting dryness and bringing sexy back!  

Oh, one more secret...make sure you apply the oil on the ends of your hair too. The ends are the oldest, driest, and most fragile area of your hair. The ends will dry out quicker which can lead to breakage, split ends, and single strand knots.
