There are several products on the market that claim that they are able to rid you of dry, damaged hair. They may be right, but before you break the bank, check your kitchen or your herb garden. It might be even possible that a little vial of essential oil that you got in a gift basket that you have sitting at the back of your closet might be of some use. Point is, there is no need to panic; you can try these natural remedies as an option to store bought alternatives. Of course, you need to desist from doing what made your hair dry and damaged in the first place for you to see any long lasting results.
