Using conditioner for dry hair can be difficult depending on the texture and length of the hair. First you need to buy the right conditioner, then you have to know how to use it. You may even need two different types of conditioner on one head of hair, especially with very long hair. This is because long hair has at least 3 different textures of hair. The hair at the scalp, middle and ends are all different and have different levels of porosity.
This means that the hair at the scalp is the healthy hair, so it isn't as porous as the hair in the middle; and the hair in the middle isn't as porous as the hair at the end. In other words, the oldest hair is the most damaged or dry, so it soaks up anything you put on it.
This is basic information that many people don't know and is why they continue to waste money and time using wrong products, the wrong way. Since the hair closest to the scalp is very healthy, it needs very little or no conditioner, yet that is exactly where most people put the majority of the hair conditioner.
The best way is to rub the conditioner in palm of hands, then run it through the hair from middle to ends combing the hair with fingers. Once this is done press conditioner into ends of the hair gently with fingertips. Using conditioner for dry hair correctly takes time and care.
If the hair is very damaged and dry, then you need to first detangle it, then comb conditioner through to the ends. Rinse and then spray a leave-in conditioner, especially if you use a blow dryer and curling iron. You should also use either mouse or gel as a styling aid as well for thermal protection of the hair.
When it comes to conditioner for dry hair, quality really does matter. This is true for shampoo as well, however the styling aids don't matter as much. I use GNatural's moisturizing Well-To-Do shampoo, and follow it up with the GNatural Breeze Conditioner (I love the peppermint tingle on my scalp!), and then the GNatural Deep N Conditioner, which detangles my hair and adds body and sheen. For thermal protection when I blow dry, my styling aid of choice is the GNatural Hair and Scalp conditioner. It protects my hair by sealing the moisture inside my hair shaft.
As mentioned above, long hair needs more care than shorter hair. Short hair doesn't get the chance to get old, it gets cut off, therefore, it's usually healthy, unless you do a lot of chemical damage, such as bleaching or double chemical services like perm and color.
The main reason I recommend professional shampoos and conditioners from GNatural is because I know and trust the quality. Many conditioners use wax to add shine to hair. Over time the wax build up makes hair heavy and lifeless. In addition, when you apply color or perm it's difficult to penetrate the wax and makes them less effective.
Even if you don't do chemical services who wants dull lifeless hair? It's also a good idea to alternate shampoos and conditioners as the hair gets used to them and doesn't respond anymore. That's why when people first use a new product their hair responds so well. The GNatural product line includes 6 different shampoos and 10 different conditioners.
If you use conditioner for dry hair every day then it's important that you know how to do it or else you pay by having bad hair days! From shampoo to deep conditioning, you're guaranteed to enjoy using GNatural herbal-based products no matter if your hair is dry, normal or oily.

The Dream
I get several calls every week from curious individuals who want information on "How to open an online beauty supply store". After speaking with some people, I can tell they are still just..... "thinking about it".
"It" is their DREAM, yet they are not ready to make it come true due to fear, lack of support from family, or a perceived lack of funds. How do you encourage someone who paralyzed by fear? My feedback is that the longer you wait,

Hair Breakage-1
Hair breakage is an extremely common problem. It is really unpleasant if you have long hair that you take time and trouble over. But there are a few standard causes for hair breakage.
One of the biggest mistakes we make is tying hair too tightly. If you have been doing this for a long time – and by a long time here we are speaking in terms of years as opposed to a few days – then your hair will get pulled from the roots. In all likelihood, the weakest point of the hair strand would be between the point where the rubber band is tied and the scalp, since this is where the maximum tension between the two points lies. So you would find that the hair has broken and has probably become frizzy as well.
This is also a normal thing, because when you break hair by pulling it, you are pushing it beyond its natural limit of elasticity, so as a result, the remainder of the hair strand will frizz up. You need to completely stop tying your hair---this is the only solution if you want to stop further breakage. Because the hair strands that have been broken half-way are weak, they may take more time than usual to grow back. And YES, you can be assured that they will definitely grow back, providing that you do not tie your hair back. This would be a preventive measure as well as the best treatment!

Hair Breakage 2
In our previous post, Hair Breakage-1, we discussed one of the main causes of hair breakage--too much pulling. Another standard cause of hair breakage is excessive heat.
Using curling irons and dryers are a surefire way of ensuring that your hair strands are so weak that they simply snap into two. Once again, you would need to go easy on using these. If possible, try avoiding high-heat styling tools for a few months. You will find this helpful in restoring the natural structure of the hair.
Alongside these measures, which are more preventive than anything else, you can also soothe your broken hair strands by regular warm oil applications to them. GNatural Herbal Hair Oil is excellent as it is light and full of healing herbs that immediately begin to penetrate the inner hair shaft. This herbal hair oil delivers nutrients to the scalp and stimulates hair growth. The restorative properties will help to put your hair in better shape. GNatural Herbal Hair Oil is also a highly nourishing oil, and your hair will need all the nourishment it can get since it has been weakened considerably over time. A combination of these methods will be helpful when allowed time to work.

Dry Hair Answers
Frizzy hair is a common problem characterized by dry and unmanageable hair. Hair that is frizzy tends to get tangled easily, leading to several other related hair problems like split ends, hair breakage, hair loss and sometimes a dry and itchy scalp. Hair that is frizzy suffers from an inability to retain moisture or, a lack of sufficient moisture. This results in weak and brittle hair that is easily prone to damage. Frizzy hair is primarily the result of improper hair care and a lack of nutrition.
You can treat frizzy hair at home with the help of a few simple hair care tips. Keep in mind that dry and frizzy hair is most often the results of improper hair care. First, make sure that you don’t shampoo your hair too often as this will strip your hair of essential moisture, thereby making it dry and frizzy.
Second, choose your hair care products like shampoo carefully as they often contain ingredients that may be too harsh for your hair type. For instance, you should avoid buying shampoos that are very strongly perfumed as they may contain harmful chemicals that strip your hair of essential moisture. Choose a shampoo that is mild and suited for your hair type and don’t wash your hair more than twice a week. This will help your hair retain some of its naturally produced moisture.
Third, make sure that you condition your hair regularly to avoid dry and frizzy hair. Your hair grooming routine should account for the fact that your hair is dry and frizzy. Therefore, you should ensure that you avoid styling techniques and products that use excessive heat---this includes hair straightening irons, hair curlers and blow driers. If you do blow dry your hair, then you've got to make sure that the dryer is set to a cooler setting and keep moving it around to avoid heating up only one section of the hair. Avoid keeping the blow drier too close to the hair as this may also aggravate your hair even more!
Most important is to choose your hair grooming products well to keep your hair from drying out and becoming frizzy. Use a wide toothed comb to disentangle your hair or just use your fingers to help keep your hair damage free. After washing your hair, to help retain moisture, gently squeeze the excess moisture and pat dry with a towel. Don’t rub your hair with the towel to dry it as this generates friction and damages the hair.

The Basics
Welcome to the Dolle House GNatural-Pro Healthy Hair site. If you are concerned about having strong, thick and beautiful hair, then you are in for a pleasant surprise.
GNatural Herbal Products is a line of herbal-based, healthy products for highly-textured hair of all ethnicities.
Did you know that only the roots of hair are actually alive, while the visible part (hair shaft) is really just dead tissue? (After all, it never hurts when you have your hair cut, does it?)
Our natural hair care products have been carefully formulated to restore--and maintain--- moisture in the hair shaft, and to pamper and condition hair that is dry from chemical treatments or, simply too much heat.
The GNatural Herbal Product company has recently addressed concerns about hair loss as a result of "internal" conditions. Contrary to popular belief, hair doesn't get thinner or fall out just because of "external" factors. As a matter of fact, more than 90 percent of the hair's health is due to what happens inside the body, including nutritional habits and hormonal environment.
That's one reason why we're so excited about the results of our colon cleansing product, GoGo Naturals. This cleanser gets rid of all the toxic build-up of waste material that may have been stuck in the folds of your digestive system for years. Our formula not only keeps your colon clean, it also keeps all waste matter moving efficiently and rapidly out of your body.
GoGo Naturals is more than just a routine colon cleaner. The ingredients--19 herbs and vitamins--all work together to give you overall increased energy and promotes better health by:
