If your hair is truly dry try the following:
- Warm / lukewarm water
- Deep condition before shampoo with Coconut Oil (Keep on for 30 minutes then add shampoo)
- No [sham]'poo'/ low [sham] 'poo'
Rec(s) :
* ACV Rinse
* Honey Shampoo Wash (check humidity)
* Clay washes (Bentonite/Rhassoul)
* Any silicone/sulfate free conditioner
- Rinse out cleaning agent and either:
* add a moisturizing oil, then leave in conditioner /butter /cream
or
* condition right after rinsing out the shampoo, add oil, then butter or cream again
(essentially the LOC or LCOB method)
- If your hair is extremely dry you might have to do the oiling method at night to help it along the week, until the hair is able to move oil along the shaft efficiently.
- Deep conditioning overnight can weaken the hair strands
- also Coconut milk + Raw Honey + Olive Oil, is a good nourishing protein treatment. A protein treatment should probably be done at least once a month to keep the curls at bay.

I realized that this may end up making your hair too oily, so you might want to focus on lighter products (ie..water based leave ins , water based conditioners, light oils like jojoba or macademia ) so you don't end up with soppy hair. It's about balance. I'd say people with tighter curls seem to do better with heavier products and vice versa.
