For Dry Hair:

Hair normally has a moisture content of approximately 10%. If your hair’s moisture content drops below this level the key is to increase the hair’s ability of attract and retain moisture. This is accomplished by using moisturizers. Good one have "humectants" that not only replace lost moisture but actually attract moisture and retain it in the cortex of the hair. Essential fatty aids (EFA’s) are great moisturizers. One of the best and most cost effective essential fatty acids is safflower oil. It is the kind you can buy to cook with. It is rich in EFA’s. The scalp produces the best EFA’s called sebum. The problems is once the hair grows past the neck line or does not have direct contact with the scalp the scalps natural oils can not be utilized throughout the hair shaft. At this point you can manually replace the lost EFA’s by:

[*]Placing 1 or 2 drops of safflower oil in your palms and rub them together.

[*]There should only be enough to make your hands "shine" in the light.

[*]Carefully take your hair (while dry) and "scrunch" the small amount of oil to the ENDS first and work toward the scalp.

[*]Leave this in your hair.

[*]1-2 drops of safflower oil on dry hair is so small, you won’t notice it is there. By doing the above as often as necessary, will ensure your dry hair will have the proper amount of humectants to attract and retain moisture. The key is a small amount will go a long way.

. I tried everything from the most expensive to the home remedies. and nothing seems to help. I rub grapeseed oil or African grow for now but my hair seems to look oily most of the time. I have curly to wavy hair and I dye the roots every three weeks due to severe premature graying. I was told you shouldn't was your hair but once a week. Any truth to that? I welcome any advice.

 
Wow!!!!Thanks for all the great ideas people go to the trouble of letting us guys know about.

 
I've also heard to get rid of the static, rub a fabric softener sheet like Bounce down your hair.

 
here is a stimulator, my mom, her hair fell out and I mixed up some ingredients olive oil, lecithin, vitamin e, and honey heat it up not hot but warm and keep on your hair as long as you like its also great for shine but really its a hot oil treatment to me, and my mothers hair is down to mid back till this day this stuff works. also I usually mix a conditioner with mayo, eggs. honey. vitamin e. olive. and blend in some mint to wake up the scalp, sometimes I use different plants like aloe, and green tea also for waking up the scalp. also ginseng all of them a fam recipe. i use on my clients and i get superb results

 
one thing i use is 1 part mouthwash 3 part water i wash my hair, pour it and massage it, then i wash again... it shines sooo much, it last for days too

 
i love adding mashed avocado with a few tablespoons of olive oil into my hair for about 30 minutes. after it is rinsed out, my hair is luxuriously soft and shiny!!
