Dry hair may be due to hormonal reasons, use of hot hair dryers and heated rollers and perm. If you have dry hair, you may develop frizziness, split hair ends and dandruff in hair.
Pamela Bell writes about remedies for dry hair:
I wanted to send you my greatest thanks. I visited your website in an effort to help my dry, coarse, frizzy hair. I used a combination of your recipes for hair masks and finally I have soft hair. I actually cried when my hair dried. This is the first time in my life I have had strong soft hair. Thank you so much.
