13 Dry Hair Treatments From Your Kitchen

We all love to flaunt healthy and shiny tresses, right? While that’s true, it’s also quite true that not everyone is blessed with lustrous and beautiful locks. Some of us are born with hair that is dull, dry and frizzy by nature. For others, who were lucky to be born with beautiful hair, sunlight, pollution, blow drying, artificial products and chemical treatments end up making hair lifeless, shine-less and brittle.
If you have dry hair, you may have been trying to find out the best ways to treat dryness and restore its natural moisture. A good place to start is to look around in your kitchen where you can find some cost-effective as well as safe remedies. These will not only soothe your dry hair problems, but also bring back life into your locks.
