No matter whether your hair is short or long, natural or dyed, wavy or straight, hair treatments are always a good idea for healthy hair. But bringing dry hair back to life can take a little more work. Here's everything you need to know about dry hair treatment and how to see results.
Dry hair can be a nightmare. Frizz, dullness, hair that's hard to style, split ends and many more things that keep you from having the hair you've always wanted.
Why hair gets dry
There are many reasons hair dries out, and some of them depend on how you care for it and some don't.
Too much sun, nutritional deficiencies, medical conditions, chlorine from swimming pools, overusing the blow dryer or poor hair hygiene are just some of the factors that can leave hair dry.
Skipping a dry hair treatment can make your hair:
- Stop growing
- Fall out easily
- Break easily
- Get frizzy and hard to style
- Lose its shine
Dry hair treatment: how and when
When your hair is dry, you need to pay closer attention to the products you choose for your hair care routine. From a shampoo and conditioner that hydrate and nourish your hair, to extras like oils and styling creams.
At eva+avo, we believe in the power of nature to care for and beautify your hair. That's why our two ingredients, avocado and wild rosemary oil, give you everything you need to bring shine and movement back to your dry, damaged hair.
5 steps to an effective dry hair treatment
A dry hair treatment should include quality products, consistency and healthy habits that also support the well-being of your dry hair.
Take note of these 5 steps for an effective dry hair treatment.
1. Choose a shampoo and conditioner for dry hair
A mistake many people make is not using products made specifically for their hair type. They don't see results and, worse, they end up harming the health of their hair.
Choose a shampoo and conditioner for dry hair with ingredients that moisturize your hair and bring back its life, shine and movement.
2. Use a hydrating hair mask from time to time
A hair mask can be your best ally in saying goodbye to dry hair. As part of your dry hair treatment, use a hair mask at least twice a week.
Hair masks help hydrate and nourish hair that needs an extra dose of vitamins. Discover our nourishing mask, which uses the natural properties of avocado to strengthen and beautify your hair.
3. Don't overdo the blow dryer or flat iron
Another important part of a dry hair treatment is avoiding overuse of the blow dryer or flat iron, which can damage your hair and scalp and strip away its shine and moisture.
You also shouldn't blow-dry your hair while it's still damp. If your hair tangles easily, use styling creams and oils that can make your hair softer and bring back the shine it has lost.
4. Use natural oils to soften your dry hair
Natural oils can work real magic on dry hair. Besides adding shine, they provide hydration, lovely scents and lots of softness.
Avocado oil is one of the most recommended oils for treating dry hair, because it uses all the properties of this fruit to help your hair regain its strength and shine, encouraging growth and keeping it from falling out or breaking easily.
5. Don't wash your dry hair so often
Contrary to what you might think, washing dry hair every day can make the dryness worse.
That's because frequent washing can strip the scalp's natural oils, leaving hair more and more fragile and dry. Make sure you use a quality shampoo with ingredients that nourish and hydrate your hair.

Healthy hair comes from using quality products along with healthy habits like a good diet and enough rest. Here are a few final tips to make your dry hair treatment effective so you can enjoy the results for good.
- If you have long hair, try to wear it down and avoid very tight hairstyles.
- Trim your ends regularly so your hair grows healthy.
- Let your hair air-dry and avoid high heat from blow dryers and flat irons.
- Include healthy fats, fruits and vegetables in your diet to nourish dry, damaged hair.
- Just as you protect your skin from the sun, you should protect your hair and scalp too. Use protective products in the summer, and use nourishing masks after your hair has been exposed to pool chlorine or sea salt.
