i have extremely thick, dry, coarse hair naturally. i've tried everything to make it resemble "normal" hair but nothing worked properly. i then started reading about Moroccan oil in beauty forums and beauty blogs and decided to try it as i was pretty desperate.
i got this one: http://www.hqhair.com/moroccanoil-or.../10387664.html which seems pretty expensive, but i wasn't too bothered since i have probably spent hundreds over the years on different products that didn't work. you can buy cheaper brands of Moroccan oil as well i think if you scour the internet. my hair is amazing now and has been from the first time i used it. i don't even recognise my hair, it's literally like somebody elses. edit: you use this after you have washed your hair, when it's damp. i also apply it when my hair is dry, mostly on the ends which tended to get reeeeally dry/brittle. it doesn't leave hair greasy and it smells pretty pleasant - i had previously tried washing my hair with olive oil but it is a nightmare trying to get it all out and didn't smell great, i'd end up with tonnes of residue and start blow drying my hair and realise it wasn't all out/my hair was awful and greasy. and now i use moroccan oil i don't need to use ANYTHING else (well besides normal shampoo/conditioner). before my routine was crazy, i'd use expensive anti frizz moisturising shampoo, triple strength moisturising conditioning mask, serums you put in when damp, blow drying spray, hair straightener heat defence spray and then follow with ~frizz serums when my hair was dry. now i just use this one thing. |

I have heard that Moroccanoil makes the hair especially coloured hair go red, haven't see it for sure though.

If the morrocan oil does make my hair go red then it doesn't really matter because I was thinking of colouring my hair red anyway lol. Thanks again everyone! xxx. |

Im not very good at applying it.. keeps making my hair super greasy.... ![]() i shall prevail... ![]() I have shoulder length dyed dark blonde from brown hair which has a lot of natural grey in it too. It is a bit over treated and over washed although I'm not a fan of the straighteners. I wash and condition my hair as normal then I take a blob of oil - only about the size of a penny - and put it in the palm of my hand and then rub my palms together. I then stroke it over the surface of my hair and finally underneath. It doesn't make my hair greasy and my hair is very fine and has a tendancy to go greasy. Perhaps you are using a bit too much? |

Another sufferer of dry hair here! I find that the Body Shop Olive (now Rainforest) range is the only thing that works for me. I've tried Ojon and Kerastace, a couple of other expensive brands from SpaceNK like Fekkai (good serum) and all the cheaper ones from Boots and my hair just reacts the best to the BS one. They claim it doesn't contain silicones, sulphates, parabens or colourants...

Try mixing the almond oil, advocat oil, olive oil and use them as a mask on your hair after washing it and then wash it, your hair will be very nice.

First and foremost try and always use professional hair care products for the best results.
Secondly, use products which are specifically designed for dry hair. 1. Shampoo your hair less frequently (if you wash it everyday) and always follow with a conditioner. 2. Deep condition your hair at least once a week and preferably leave it in overnight before rinsing out. 3. Apply a small amount of oil/creme/serum to the lengths of your towel dried hair to seal in the moisture before styling. 4. Limit the use of hot tools (hairdryer, flat irons etc...) |

I have really dry and curly hair. I deep condition it once a week and try not to use the flat iron or hair dryer on it too much. A good deep conditioner is Neutrogena Triple Moisture Deep Recovery Hair Mask. This treatment really locks in the moisture leaving hair soft and shiny.
I also always condition my hair after shampooing. Just with a normal conditioner. I leave it in for a minute or two and then rinse it out. I have also had a professional hydrating treatment done at a salon. This really made a difference to the softness of my hair. These can be pretty expensive but if you look around you can find one for a reasonable price. I found it here . |

Have the same problem. You should change your shampoo and conditioner. I prefer to use only organic and natural hair products. If your hair is dry it is better to make a short haircut. I have thin and dry shoulder-length hair. When I want to change my hairstyle I just use hair extensions with natural hair. And in a few seconds I have long shiny hair. Very convenient. I also like coconut oil mask (I make it three times a week) and I take vitamins. Now my hair looks incredible.
PS of course, you should avoid to use hair dryer. |

Try Aussie shampoo and conditioner.
This is currently the shop I get my shampoos and conditioners from. I highly recommend Clineral if you're suffering from dry, itchy scalp and dandruff. But if it's just dryness, go for Grown Alchemist. Also, being exposed to too much sunlight or taking too long of a hot shower could add to the dryness of your hair. You might want to limit your exposure to those too. |

Did you know there's a home remedy for oily scalp.
Applying onion juice mixed with a pinch of lemon juice and leaving it on for an hour does wonders to the quality of your hair, and even prevents hairfall. |

Another vote for Ojon here. Sorted my hair out with one treatment when it was frazzled by 2 weeks in a highly-polluted city, hotel aircon, 17 hour flights there and back and lack of sleep.
