Is your hair thirsty?

Ever thought of your hair as a garden?? I have, as a matter of fact, I am convinced that my head now, this is inclusive of the hair strands down to its roots, is a garden. The hair strands that grow out of my scalp are the many pretty little blossoming flowers.

So is it safe to say that just as flowers in a garden need water to blossom so does my hair, absolutely? Hair can not grow and be healthy without water. It is all good and well that I put oils onto my hair and roots but do these oils quench the thirst of my hair, no. So why not give the hair what they need? Water, yes water. Lots, and lots of water both internally and externally. What do I mean, I mean drink plenty of water and spray your hair to the roots with water. If you have high porosity hair as I do, you will find that your hair soaks up water in a matter of seconds, your hair will thank you in the long run if you only gave it what it really needs.

What happens when all you do is put creams and oils to your hair and no water? Very simple, imagine you have a plant and all you do is ensure it gets plenty of sunshine and no water. Yep, you guessed it. Your hair starts to dry up and becomes very susceptible to breakages.

Products are amazing for our hair but, use them as an addition to the water. Water should never be a "do I need too?" yes, yes you need too. If you love your hair then water them down.
