Homemade Deep Conditioning Treatment For Your Weak And Dull Hair

The hair requires constant care. Neglect can lead to hair fall, dryness and dullness. Hair begins to appear rough and dull when it lacks moisture. It is important to avoid using harsh shampoos that contain high levels of chemicals. Blow dryers, straightening irons and chemical treatments could cause damage to the hair and lead to dryness and brittleness. Environmental factors could also result in damage to the hair. Increased sun exposure and hot and humid weather could result in rough hair. Poor nutrition and nutritional deficiencies also cause the hair to become dull and lifeless. The hair roots obtain nourishment from the food we eat, and hence if the body does not receive essential nutrients, the hair will get affected. Certain illnesses may also be an underlying cause of hair problems.
