Moisturize Your Hair The Right Way

Depending on your hair-type, the amount of moisture needed in the hair must be known, and this need should be met if you want to care for that hair or want to grow that hair.
   moisturizers work by penetrating the hair cuticle, providing the hair with water and also sealing the water in it.
      You cannot use water to moisturize your hair, as in a few hours, it will evaporate because iy hasnt been sealed in
    You also cannot use oils to moisturize your hair (except coconut oil) as the essence of moisturizers is to provide water, oils dont have that water and will only sit on your hair. Oils are used to seal the water into your hair.
Moisturize Your Hair the Right Way
1. Make sure your hair is clean.
        If your hair is not clean, there is no way the moisturizer is going to get through to the hair cuticle and provide moisture. Applying moisturizer to dirty hair will only cause buildups and weigh down your hair.
2. If you are using water then seal it in.
   If you don't want to use hair products, then wet yout hair and use shea butter to seal the moisture in.
3. Moisturize after a hair wash.
      I'm pretty sure many of you will only shampoo and condition your hair, not knowing or remembering to moisturize your hair. Shampoos will strip off the moisture in your hair, making it brittle, you might have noticed a change in the texture while rinsing off the shampoo, this is due to lack of moisture.
    Right after your conditioner, blow dry your hair or let it air dry, then apply your moisturizer, from roots to tips.
4. Moisturize frequently
     You dont necessarily have to  moisturize your hair twice a day, if it gets too much, it will only make your hair wet, then moisturize once a day or any other day. If the moisturizer is not enough, your hair will remain dry, then moisturize twice a day.
5. Mosturize your the tips of your hair.
     The tips are usually neglected. The natural oil produced by the hair cannot travel as far as the hair tips, so always make sure to keep the tips of the hair moisturized
