Dry Hair and Oily Scalp
Most of you may had come across such multiple hair and head condition. If you treat oiliness it may create dryness. When try to avoid dryness it may create oiliness. Most of the time it is a very difficult situation to cope with. I receive several emails asking a perfect remedy for this.
Here you have to understand some basic things regarding hair and scalp. When you try to remove the oil condition of scalp and wash with shampoo very frequently, it is seen giving an adverse result. Why? It is a natural tendency of skin including scalp that when you wash more the oil glands under the skin may try to produce more oil. If it is the fact then what will an amicable solution? Avoid excessive washing with shampoo. Understand that shampooing is not the solution to face this situation. Then what is recommendable in this situation? Let us see this at the end part of this story.
Next let us think about extreme dryness. If the hair and scalp give dryness, naturally you may try to oil the hair. Nothing wrong. But before going for a head oil treatment consider this- did you have this dry hair problem long before? And did it produce dry flakes on the scalp. Is this situation because of excess shampooing? All these questions should be asked before deciding a solution. If there is flakes on the scalp and it is in excess, then oiling may cause dandruff. When you oil on the flaky scalp it may cause infection on the scalp. This may give itching on the scalp. In this situation you have to check that is there any dandruff or is this just a flaky scalp? Sometimes the flakes on the scalp may get confused as dandruff. Then dandruff treatment or dandruff shampoos may worsen the situation. If you find that that you have dandruff with excessive flakes then you have to use some mild dandruff shampoo or herbal products, keeping in mind that it is not causing any more dryness. After solving the dandruff you can treat the dryness by oiling. Here I recommend to go for any homemade hair packs. Definitely it will not produce more dryness or oiliness.
Whenever you face with the multiple condition of dry hair and oily scalp it is very difficult to treat it with a store bought product. Here you have to consider the situation very intelligently. To remove the dryness of hair if you put oil, gradually the oil from hair will be transferred to the scalp. If you try to solve the oily scalp by shampooing that will cause dryness on hair. Here you have to select a solution to give a medium remedy on both condition. Here comes the help as homemade or natural remedy. Here is a simple logic to face the situation. Avoid excess oil and excess washing. I am suggesting a mixture treatment of oil and orange pack.
Hair pack for oily scalp and dry hair
This treatment consists of two parts, oiling and orange massage. As you have dry hair you have to consider this first. So do a simple and light hot oil massage on the hair ONLY. And, take care to avoid two inches of hair from the scalp side. It is to avoid spreading the oil to the scalp. Only light oiling may do. Spread your favorite hair oil all over the hair. If the oil is warm that is very good. Do not put oil on the scalp. Wait for five min.
Now scalp treatment starts. Cut an orange into two halves. Try to remove the superficial seeds by pressing. Then rub the orange on scalp thoroughly. After applying the orange all over the scalp, start rubbing the scalp with fingers. Here you have to take care that your finger nails are not scratching the scalp skin. Just do gentle massage for three min. Then wait for 20 min. Then wash hair and scalp with water. Do not use any shampoo.
This you have do once in three days. While continuing this treatment for a week or two, you can apply a suitable hair pack once in a week. Avoid tomato or strawberries in the pack. Do and avocado hair pack. This homemade remedy can help you treating the multiple condition. After solving the problem through this one-course treatment you have to manage your head and hair cleverly. That means all your continued product usages have to solve the multiple condition. When you select shampoos and when you do hot oil treatment do this mildly. It is very recommended to apply suitable hair packs instead of shampooing and oiling. This can give a permanent solution by permanent and clever treating hair accordingly.

Chemically Treated Haircare
Processed Haircare
When you use hair color, perms and relaxer, the chemicals contained in these products alter the characteristics of hair shaft. This may cause the hair strands to break. In most of the cases the hair tips happen to split apart. The final condition of hair may be you get a frizzy hair. Most importantly the hair may look dull by making the surface of hair strands mat finish or less shiny.
Care for processed hair has to be taken very seriously. Because of the application of strong chemicals, the normal condition of hair might have changed. You hair was oily, but now it may be like combination hair. Most probably by the application of chemicals the tips of the hair and shafts may become more dry than the roots. So you have to treat your hair as a combination hair.
How to use shampoo on a chemically treated hair
If your hair is colored, choose an appropriate shampoo specially designed for colored hair. This shampoo may be more gentle and can protect the color. For a permed or relaxed hair choose moisturizing shampoo. Apply shampoo only on the roots and rub it well. Pour splash of water onto the root. The shampoo will run towards the shaft and give a gentle massage on the shaft to cleanse there. Then rinse the whole hair.
Using conditioner
The conditioner is mainly needed for the tips of hair. Use a rich conditioner. Apply the conditioner mainly on the tips. And gently and lightly apply the conditioner very little towards the shaft. Do not use it on the roots. Rinse well.
Dry your hair naturally. Do not use hair dryer that may make your hair dry. Do not rub vigorously with towel. This can create tangles. Do not wash a processed hair very frequently. On the same time take care to minimize the oily roots. Avoid over sun exposure of hair. Sometimes dry flakes may appear on the scalp. It is not dandruff. It is due to the over dryness there, because the shampoo may be too strong or due to the action of the strong chemicals from hair processing. If the tips are split apart, do trimming the split ends.
To rejuvenate and recondition your damaged hair, instead of using store bought products, you can go for natural and home made hair packs.

Dry flakes on the scalp
I received an email from a reader that she is having flaky scalp. This flakes cause boils on the fore head. She used so many remedies but no result. This is a common condition especially during winter. When this occurs everybody try so many things. Some may go for dandruff treatment. Some may go for pimple treatment. Some may try hot oil treatment. Why this confusion? Because no body is trying to find out the reason for this condition. Secondly they fail to recognize the problem. In all the skin problems, either on face or scalp, you have to see your skin type. Check whether you have a dry or oily or combination skin. Accordingly you have to face the problem.
If you have dry skin or dry scalp then always you have to take care for not getting severe dryness. How you understand that you have severe dry scalp? Check is there any formation of flaky scalp. Flakes are due to dead cells coming out in large quantity. The outer layer of cells in the skin is becoming dead and it causes flaky cells. Normally when you find this condition certainly you will go for hot oil head massage. Yes it is good. But before jumping into that remedy, just give few minutes to think. If there is lot of flaky cells on the scalp and this condition prevailed long before then oiling is not recommended. Why? Along with dead cells there will be dirt accumulated. When you apply oil that may create a very damp scalp which can produce bacterial infection on the scalp. This leads to dandruff. But if there is very little flakes and it started very recently then oiling can help.
Sometimes this dead cells on the scalp can be interpreted or suspected as dandruff. Then what you do? You use dandruff shampoo. This may cause excess dryness. So do not get confused with dryness and dandruff.
When the flakes are dropped on the forehead it causes to produce small pimple like bumps on the forehead. There is no need to go for a pimple treatment. Take care of the flakes then the pimples will run away.
Instead of using oil on the scalp just use oil (very lightly) on hair only, avoiding two inches from the scalp side. Continue this for few days. At the same time take bath or head washing without using shampoo. And towel dry scalp very lightly. Do not scratch on the scalp but gently rub with fingers. This will drop out the flakes gradually. After a week or two you can see the flakes are diminishing. The oiling on the hair keep the scalp not getting more dryness. After removing the fakes you can oil the scalp also. After this you have to take care doing oiling once in a week.
If you do not use oil then try suitable hair packs.(search in this site for "hair packs") Wash hair thoroughly in water and do rub with fingers then wash again. Do not use hard shampoo. Towel dry hair and use hair pack. This will definitely solve the problem.
The mail which I received tells that she has sinus problem, so she cannot use oil or hair packs. What is a solution in this situation. Simple, your aim should be to remove the flakes first. Wash hair in water without using hard shampoo. Use green gram powder to wash the scalp if you want. Rub on the scalp with fingers while doing washing. Then towel try hair and scalp. After few days of removing the flakes use mild herbal hair conditioner. This will keep hair moisturized and this will help the scalp to become normal.
So please read the above post three times and choose a suitable remedy. Good luck.

General Hair Care Tips
Hair Care
A healthy hair is depended mainly on a healthy diet, good exercise and proper care. Head hair is located underneath of scalp skin. Hair is produced from the hair follicles. The necessary protein for hair growth is supplied through blood circulation in the scalp area. Here we can understand that the food we eat also decides hair growth. Pertinacious food helps the hair growth. Fish, meat, milk, butter and food grains contains protein. Fresh fruits also help in this. Also eat green leafy vegetables that can increase the iron content in the blood. The iron in the blood can stimulate oxygenation in the body.
If your hair is too dry you have to oil once in a week. But do not keep hair so oily. If the hair is oily then you have to shampoo once n a week. Always take care to keep hair not too oily or too dry. Hair must be in a medium or combination level. Normally the oil glands under the scalp can produce the required oil. There is no need to put oil externally. But sometimes the oil glands may work up normally. It may produce excess oil or it may not produce enough oil. In this condition you have to mange it by adjusting your diet. But if the oil production is not becoming normal then you have to go for shampooing or oil massage.
Another main and important matter I have to mention is about over shampooing. If the hair and scalp is extremely oily then there will be a tendency to wash hair very frequently. This is not a proper method. If you wash away total oil by over shampooing then the oil glands on the scalp may try to produce more oil. As you wash more the glands tends to produce more oil. Do not over wash, that will not solve the problem. First of all try to solve the problem by food control. Next use mild shampoos that only reduce the oil very little. Do not use any shampoo that may make hair very dry. Instead of using shampoo you can try a suitable homemade hair pack.
Another important thing is over oiling. If your hair is too dry there will be tendency to oil hair. Oiling is good but do not put more oil. It may produce dandruff. If you are in a habit of oil the hair once in a week that is good. You can put enough oil on hair and scalp. After half an hour remove the excess oil by using a suitable shampoo. If you don't like shampoo again homemade hair packs are good.
For a healthy scalp and hair it is highly advisable to do a head massage, with oil or without, once in a week at least. That will increase the blood circulation in scalp area.
Chick pea powder or green gram powder can be used to wash hair. Apply oil before using this. Hibiscus leaves can be used as shampoo and conditioner.
Beauty Consciousness
Psychology of beauty consciousness and related problems
Beauty consciousness is a positive thing especially in this modern world. Of course it is! Each of us have our own independent and unique beauty awareness. This varies depending upon the various conscious levels. No one can calculate accurately the different states of this beauty consciousness, because it is of numerous types. Beauty or something else, whatever it may be, that is not comprehensible. That is the reason there are numerous beauty concepts available in the beauty business. When it comes to the beauty products it is with tremendous number of products. Just like in life, humans do not have a correct or accurate awareness regarding how to live a life , here in beauty consciousness there is no correct and accurate way of pursuing our own beauty. The main reason for this is lack of knowledge about correct beauty ideas and products.
For example think that there is a new product in the market for hair straightening. Get some awareness about this product. The very first point to see is this is a factory product and not a natural product. So that may be either totally of chemical ingredients or a mixture of chemicals and natural ingredients. Most probably the natural ingredient is added because to give a false impression that totally it is a natural product. The main active ingredient may be a chemical. But the chemical ingredients are not totally unsafe if it is processed well. But unfortunately, the chemical ingredients are very strong and it is done to increase the effectiveness of the product. Manufacturers are with the opinion that most the buyers are looking for instant result. This aspect is also because of the improper awareness about beauty concepts. From this fact we can understand one thing that all the improper practices in the beauty market is popping up because of the customers' lack of knowledge. Manufacturers say that they give out what the customers ask. So we as customers have to know what to ask. Let us take the case of hair straightening product. The customer want to make hair straight instantly. This idea of straightening the hair comes from an infatuation. There is no fault in it. But together with that customer must give time to study things behind hair straightening and related products. In against this, most of the time when an idea popes out to straighten the hair, then straight away runs to the store and ask for some product. Simultaneously put forward one demand that please give some effective product. What is meant by effective?
In the first place we have to understand that the curly nature of hair is hair's behavioral pattern. It cannot be changed naturally and permanently. If we go for some natural methods it might be temporary that is why it is without much damage. But if we aim for a permanent solution then think that it will be possible through unnatural means. So have a concrete idea that the straightening products are doing its work through chemically synthesized ingredients. If the ingredient is mild then the result also may be mild. If the result is unbelievable then think that the ingredients are strong. What is wrong in it? Nothing wrong in the manufacturer's side but in your hair. The result is instant and it makes you happy. But after few weeks surely you will be invited for a protein treatment to escape from unavoidable damage of hair. Alas! you are in between Sky-la and Carib-dis. It is a point of no return. So you accepts the invitation and takes the protein treatment. No product can give instant escape from hair damage. This time you may be thinking that if I could know about this loss I might not have gone for hair straightening. Who cares? If this is your attitude then go ahead. But that is your temporary notion. You want to make your hair fascinating but at the same time how can you afford to destroy your total hair. If you loves hair style then you must love your hair also. Other wise there will be no good hair and so there would not be good style. So choose products with great care. Compromise on infatuation and know it is for your good. Good luck and have nice hair experience!

Simultaneously put forward one demand that please give some effective product. What is meant by effective?
In the first place we have to understand that the curly nature of hair is hair's behavioral pattern. It cannot be changed naturally and permanently. If we go for some natural methods it might be temporary that is why it is without much damage. But if we aim for a permanent solution then think that it will be possible through unnatural means. So have a concrete idea that the straightening products are doing its work through chemically synthesized ingredients. If the ingredient is mild then the result also may be mild. If the result is unbelievable then think that the ingredients are strong. What is wrong in it? Nothing wrong in the manufacturer's side but in your hair. The result is instant and it makes you happy. But after few weeks surely you will be invited for a protein treatment to escape from unavoidable damage of hair. Alas! you are in between Sky-la and Carib-dis. It is a point of no return. So you accepts the invitation and takes the protein treatment. No product can give instant escape from hair damage. This time you may be thinking that if I could know about this loss I might not have gone for hair straightening. Who cares? If this is your attitude then go ahead. But that is your temporary notion. You want to make your hair fascinating but at the same time how can you afford to destroy your total hair. If you loves hair style then you must love your hair also. Other wise there will be no good hair and so there would not be good style. So choose products with great care. Compromise on infatuation and know it is for your good. Good luck and have nice hair experience!
