The problem of dry hair is an object of concern for many these days. Hair becomes dry when they become deficient in moisture and the natural oils secreted by the oil glands at the base of hair follicles. These deficiencies cause the hair to lose their natural luster and even texture. Thus dry hair is coarse in texture, uneven, has split ends, frizz and is quite brittle. This often leads to hair fall. Dry hair resembles unwashed straw; it is thicker towards the scalp but has tapering ends. It is very difficult to run comb through dry hair as there can be several tangles. Combing of dry hair often leads to loss of hair.
