Like skin everybody has different hair type. Not all of us born with the same hair type. So different hair type need different type of hair care pattern. Hairs are normal where they have a balance of moister and dryness in the hair.
They appear different in the changed weather and climatic conditions. Dry have lack natural moister in them in need some extra care to provide essential moister to them and oily have produce more sebum like oily skin. They are sticky and need to be washed more often than normal and dry hair to remove the excess oil from them.
One can easily find out the kind of hair one has-the procedure is the same as knowing the skin type. After shampooing the hair one can put a tissue paper by putting it on the hairline behind the ears. If there is oil on the tissue even after washing the hair, then the hair is oily otherwise they are normal. If they are excessive dryness on your scalp and hair too us dry then the hair is dry. One can find out just after combing the hair only after wash, which type the hair one, has. Oily hair starts looking oily or greasy after 2 hours of wash though dry hair looks rough in texture and is not easy to manage.
When one knows the hair type one finds it easy to care and manage them in a better way accordingly. If you don't understand your hair type, you can spoil them by applying conditioner on oily hair or by not applying shampoo and conditioner specifically meant for dry hair. So for the better care its essential to know the hair type and buy the hair care products accordingly.
Usually people have the hair type same as their skin type because the body produces oil and sebum in the same proportion to go it to the skin and hair but some external factors do effect the skin and hair type too and in exceptions hair and skin type of the same person can have different characteristics.
Normal Hair-normal hairs have oil and dryness in equal combination. They have shine and softness to them and are manageable dry. They are non sticky though they appear rough or sticky when there is change in the weather. In humidity they can produce a little more oil than usual and they are a little drier in the winters. So you need to buy shampoo, conditioner and other hair care products as hair serum or oils keeping in mind your hair type. Normal hair usually doesn't require much care. They just need to be cleaned regularly. Massage is must for all hair types as it increases the blood circulation of the scalp and ads bounce and shine to the hair. Hair should be cut once in a month to prevent from spilt ends. It even helps them to grow finely.
Dry Hair-dry hair demands maximum maintenance. They are rough, get tangled easily and break off easily. They are not very easy to manage so one requires shampoos, which have extra moisturizer, and gives some extra care to the hairs to make them soft and smooth. You should buy shampoo, which are specifically meant for the dry hair type. Conditioning is must for the dry hair so you should always apply conditioner on your hair, which is the same brand as your shampoo.
Conditioner is applied on the hair after the shampoo. Instruction are written on the conditioner pack but the method is take needed amount of conditioner onto your palms and rub it, now apply it on the hair from beginning from the hairline to the end of the hair. Conditioners need not to be applied on the scalp. Ends of the hairs are drier than the scalp so you should apply a little more conditioner on the ends of the hair. Leave it on the hair for few minutes and wash it off.
For dry hair you should not use hot water, the water should be lukewarm otherwise it will make the hair brittle and excessive dry. Hair sebum should be applied on the dry hair to give them a smooth texture and it makes them more manageable. Dry hair should be massaged at least twice a week with good hair oil. Coconut oil is a good option. One can even use combination of olive and castor oil to fulfill the oil requirement of the dry hair. Deep conditioning is very good for dry hair. A professional hair care expert in a saloon can give it or one can take it at home at least once in 15 days. In deep conditioning you need to oil your hair, dip a towel in hot water, squeeze the water and wrap the hot towel on your head for at least 15 minutes. It will make the scalp and hair to absorb the oil and they will not be as dry as before. Same process can be applied after putting conditioner on the hair than hair oil.
Oily Hair-oily hair produce more hair. They need to be washed everyday with an oil controlling shampoo. Conditioner is not required for them, as they tend to become greasy and sticky. One should use lukewarm water to wash oily hair to remove the oil and always use non- greasy oil on your hair if you want to. They are easy to manage but have to be cleaned quite often. As people with oily hair use to wash their hair every time they have to go out otherwise their hair look sticky and greasy. Once a while you can rub lemon peel on your scalp and add lemon juice to your water, which you will use to shampoo your hair to get rid of excess oil from your hair.
