How can I moisture my hair for a few bucks ?

I am black and have real fine thin hair. I live in dry heated conditions. I curl my hair before I go out and before my day is halfway done. My curls have fallen and my hair starts to frizz. I have tried hot oil treatments,conditioner even grease that say they tame frizz. How can I keep moisture in my hair?

it is not due to your hair lacking moisture. in fact it is your hair type. Please dont take offence to this, but your type of hair can be one of the toughest types to style, deal with etc..

What you need to get is a good de-frizz product, and some good styling products. dont buy cheap because they never work good, i know you only want to spend a few bucks, but you get what you pay for.

When you first style your hair, if it is wet use mousse or another type of product that is for wet hair, style/dry it, then use another holding product and hairspray, this will help keep it styled for a bit longer, i cant gaurentee that it will hold all day, but it'll be getting close to it.

If your hair is really dry, and kinda feels rough or like sandpaper when you run your fingers down it, try a deep conditioning treatment. you can get them done at any salon or go to a salon and see if they have samples of it that you can use..then it would be FREE :)

also another option is to actually perm your hair, but i would recommend going to a salon for this as they wil have the best one for your hair type.

Hope this helps ....i am a hairdresser so i do know what im talking about :)

Rub coconut oil in your hair at least twice a week. Put in on and then leave it for an hour and then rinse it off. Vinger also makes your hair glossier and stronger aswell as beer believe it or not. With the vinger and the beer wash your hair with deep treatment shampoo and then before your final rinse of cold water(this makes your folicles close and keeps hair healthy) then wash with either one.

You can try this hair lotion that I recently saw at Target. I can't remember the brand but it's basically Olive oil lotion for the hair. Olive oil is very fine and absorbs easily into hair and skin. It's been known world-wide of it's moisturizing property.

Also, don't rub towel against your hair, dab it. Rubbing can cause friction and damage. Second, if you use blow dryer, use one that has ionic functions that helps restore moisture back to your hair. I have one from Panasonic and it works very well. Third, don't use extremely hot water to wash your hair. Very hot water will strip moisture and oil from hair and skin. Fourth, you can try using 100% boar bristle brushes. It can bring oil from the scalp to the ends of your hair. OR you can try this remedy my cousin gave me. She swears it works:

* Whip together 1/2 cup low-fat mayonnaise, 1 egg yolk, 1 tablespoon soft margarine, and 2 teaspoons wheat germ oil. * Apply to hair and scalp, completely covering each strand with a thick layer of conditioner. * Soak a terry-lined shower cap in hot water, wring out, and pull over head. * Allow this conditioning cap to remain on the head for thirty to forty-five minutes. * Remove the cap. You'll be surprized how much conditioner your thirsty, dry hair has absorbed. * Wash out the residual conditioner and allow hair to air dry or use a dryer set on cool.

do it yourself. i live in a tropical climate, and i get the problem of dry hair often. first off, keep away from the curling iron! it will definitely dry your hair. i kept away from it and it did wonders. if you have to curl it, only once a week, especially now.

i try to use hot coconut oil on my hair (the virgin coconut oil) and i scrub it on my scalp once a month. the treatments at salons will go on forever, girl. and your hair will look bad once you get off the treatments. also, the coconut oil will make your hair shiny.

put aloe vera in some hot water, let the water cool, and use it before you shampoo. i do this once a week.

when washing your hair, don't use hot water. your hair will break out into split ends.

and use the conditioner that works best for you. best if you use the one with a label "for dry hair". the best shmapoo for you should have sun protection, so your hair won't frizz. i use palmolive with sun protection on those hot summer days.

and the one hundred brush strokes? it works. brush your hair (from scalp to tip) many times in the morning and before you sleep at night, following the natural waves of your hair. brushing from the scalp will help release the natural oils and proteins to your hair.

hope i helped you, girl! :)
