A good way to eliminate dry hair is to stop using the hair dryer frequently if possible. Let your hair air dry naturally. After you shampoo don't rub your hair just squeeze and blot hair strands with the towel then using your fingers slide through and fluff them to dry. Some people use mayonnaise spreading it on the ends leaving it for thirty minutes or so but can become too greasy so be careful. Drink lots of water eight glasses a day. Try to stay away from fast foods or eat more salads, veggies, chicken, turkey, fish. When we put unhealthy foods into our bodies it will show up on the outside of our bodies example: dry hair, bad complexion, dry skin etc.
