Dry, brittle hair is prone to breakage, not to mention unsightly frizz. Over cleansing, heat stylers and chemical processing can all lead to a head of hair that is less than manageable. Dry hair lacks the moisture content necessary to maintain its silky sheen, according to MedLline Plus. Reintroducing moisture to your hair and adjusting the way you care for your hair can help improve its texture, minimize flyaways and restore smoothness.

Drying your hair day after day with the heat of a hair dryer is asking for trouble. When you dry your hair with a hair dryer, the high concentration of heated air actually boils the water left on the hair shaft after washing, as explained by The American Academy of Dermatology. Eventually, this scenario causes your hair to become dry and brittle. Air drying is a much better option and knowing how to do it correctly helps cut down on drying time.
