Hair Care Tips BY RYDRLESSHORSE

For hair that's is dry or hair that's breaking off, olive oil is a good solution. Before washing or even wetting hair, put about 1/6 - 1/4 cup of olive oil (closer to 1/6 for shorter hair, and closer to 1/4 for longer, thicker hair) on it and work it through from the scalp to the ends. Leave it on for about 10 or 15 minutes. After that, you can shampoo and condition as usual. This works because its very oily, but not the nasty, dirty grease that builds up. It's not heavy at all, but in fact, very thin and loose. It works great for smoothing and moistening dry hair! I do it once a week and it works magnificently!

Clarify Your Hair BY LREED65

An inexpensive way to clarify your hair is to use your usual shampoo, during the first lather, take a handful of baking soda and work it into the lather thoroughly. Let it set for a few minutes, depending on how much styling buildup you have on your hair. Rinse and shampoo again without baking soda, then condition. The baking soda makes an excellent chelating aid. It is also advisable to clarify at least every two weeks to remove product buildup. Always clarify before doing a deep conditioning treatment. Otherwise you will be conditioning over product buildup which really won't be beneficial. Chelating also removes trace buildup of prescription drugs that buildup in your hair. Treat yourself to a scalp massage, this facilitates healthy hair growth by stimulating the blood supply to you scalp.
