Dry Hair and Dry Scalp Type. Dry type of scalp usually goes together with dry dandruff. How to take care of such type of scalp? First of all, shampoo should be done a special way. Hair must be protected from water pressure on the inside paries of the hair – during shampooing water gets inside layers of hair and push it from inside, as a result hair loses its texture, swells, they become hard to brush. Bloodies and people with dry hair and split ends knows what does it feels like.

There are two main ways to protect hair from this situation. First is putting hair mask on dirty and dry hair before shampooing. Mask can be applied with hands as usually or with hair coloring brush. During first shampooing you will wash away dust and styling products remains from hair, do not do scalp massage while first shampooing so that dust will not get inside of your skin. Second protection and caring way is applying mask for dry hair and scalp after shampooing.

Scalp massage is highly recommended for dry type scalp.

How to Make Your Own Beauty Products from Scratch - Lifestyle. Let's keep things simple this week. When it comes to personal-care products, we are big believers in streamlining what you use—see "Eight Products You Think You Need But Don't" for a refresher—buying less in general, and getting creative. We have both always loved experimenting in our kitchens and our bathrooms, checking ingredients in products we love, isolating the main ones, and then trying them on their own. Sometimes it works: A favorite hair leave-in contained aloe, for example, so one day we tried aloe alone and found that, lo and behold, it worked just fine on its own. And sometimes it didn't.

Be sure you are not making one of these five common mistakes that can make you look old before your time. 1.) Forgetting about Your Neck Most people think of the face when you mention anti-aging products, but neglecting your neck is a sure-fire way to show your age before you're ready.

In addition to topical creams and serums, the optimum anti-aging skin care regimen includes nourishing the skin from within. 3.) You've heard it many times before: no single product can do more to prevent the signs of aging than sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. 4.)

Next to your face, your hands are probably the most visible parts of your body and will show the earliest signs of aging. 5.)
