    in between shampoos, if you need to wash your hair,pretend to "shampoo" just use conditioner, and at the same time, use your fingers to clean your scalp. then rinse. shampoo every other day or every 2 days, depending on how dry your hair gets.

    you can also deep condition your hair with aussie 3 minute miracle deeeep conditioner. works great.

    or use olive oil or coconut oil to moisturize ur hair once a week. coat your hair in whichever u choose. then let it sit in your hair for about an hour. then rinse. rinse twice if necessary. this will def help out. hope i could help. good luck!!

    Hair gel is the worst for a dry scalp. Shampooing your hair every day also dries out your scalp and hair. Try using a hot oil treatment such as argan or macadamia but oil because natural is better. Use conditioner daily and shampoo every other day or less often if you can. Using hair wax is much better than gel and is available almost anywhere that gel is. It works just as well.

    Try to avoid washing your hair everyday. Once every other day is fine, you aren't letting your hair's natural oils to absorb which is why you have dry scalp! Good luck!

    Morroccan Oil. And stop washing your hair everyday...It's proven to be unhealthy for your hair because it does remove the natural oil.
