Features and composition
The main thing that owners of dry hair need to know is that they should select exclusively moisturizing products for the care of their hair with the most natural composition. In addition, such funds should nourish the curls well and have special components that protect the curls from damage in the future.
It is desirable that, in addition to vitamins, minerals and amino acids, the following components are present in the composition:
- biotin, panthenol and glycine - all these components help smooth out damaged hair, contributing to their accelerated recovery;
- proteins - these components in the composition of the funds are aimed at smoothing damaged hair scales; special attention should be paid to products with healthy wheat and milk proteins, as they can become a real salvation for very dry hair;
- oils (essential and base) - they perfectly fight dry hair, brittle ends, and also restore curls at their cellular level;
- extracts of useful herbs and plants - the most useful are the extracts of chamomile, calendula, aloe and some others, which perfectly nourish the hair, making it soft and silky;
- hyaluronic acid - a well-known component that not only moisturizes the curls and epidermis, but also returns the curls to their former shine.

When parsing a composition, for example, a shampoo with balm, you should pay attention to how the components are located in it, since they are located from the very beginning in descending order. Therefore, if you see useful proteins at the very end of the list of remedies, it means that they are practically not there.
For people with dry hair, the following components in hair care products are undesirable: sulfates (SLS), parabens and ammonia compounds that can cause allergies.

Important! Before you start choosing a series of products for the care of dry and dull hair, it is highly recommended to find out the reason why it has become this way. Of course, with frequent staining, everything is clear, but sometimes the reasons are deeper, for example, hormonal failure or vitamin deficiency. And this problem cannot be solved with shampoos alone, because the treatment will have to be carried out from the inside. Sometimes a visit to a trichologist is irreplaceable.

Species overview
Today, many foreign and domestic brands produce a variety of products aimed at combating dry and brittle hair. Let's consider them in more detail.
Shampoos
The main task of shampoos is to cleanse the scalp and curls, although on the jars you can find a lot of additions that the shampoo nourishes, smoothes and saturates the hair with everything you need - in general, 5 in 1, or even 10 in 1. This is often just a commercial move. Most of these products are aimed at exceptional cleansing, so you should not expect a "wow" effect from them, shampoos do not give any moisturizing and nourishing effect without using additional products like conditioners and balms.

How to choose?
When choosing care for dry hair, it is better to give preference to one company. In any case, professionals recommend purchasing shampoo and balm (conditioner) from the same brand and from the same series. A variety of masks, serums and hair care sprays often have to be chosen at random, since it is extremely difficult to test them in a store. Here, when choosing, you should rely on the current condition of the hair, their needs and, of course, the composition of the product itself that you want to purchase. It should satisfy all the needs of the hair.

If the hair is dyed several times, dry from roots to ends, then it makes sense to select products that must be used along the entire length. For example, these can be lightweight emulsions for curls that give smoothness and shine. In addition to a variety of salon brands, sometimes pharmacy brands should be preferred, such as Bioderma, which has high quality care products for damaged, brittle and loose hair.
In addition to ready-made products, at home you can sometimes use folk remedies, for example, making harmless masks based on kefir, eggs and honey.
