So, what\u2019s a gray-haired girl to do? Not only should you look for the right products to give gray hair a moisture boost, and also consider the tone. \u201cShampoo or conditioner with a purple base<\/a> is best to keep hair from turning yellow,\u201d says Rivera. Just be sure to use a hydrating one. \u201cHair products should be changed to more moisturizing products,\u201d Rivera adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Paying more attention to a dry scalp<\/a> is also key. \u201cA lot of gray-tailored haircare products like tinted dry shampoos and spray-on root touchup products can cause buildup and even scalp irritation,\u201d cautions Dr. Mraz Robinson. \u201cTo keep the scalp moisturized, soothed and clear of buildup, I like to use a scalp scrub or scalp mask with exfoliating properties<\/a>.\u201d Look for a gentle and moisturizing formula to nourish gray heads of hair.\u00a0<\/p> Since the scalp isn\u2019t producing as much of its own oils, adding a hair oil to your haircare regimen is a smart move. The Prose hair oil<\/a> delivers exactly what your scalp needs. Each formula is custom created to target your specific goals, using sustainable and natural ingredients<\/a> such as cucumber oil<\/a> for hair health, Siberian pine nut oil<\/a> for shine, rosehip oil<\/a> for moisture, shea oil<\/a> for repair, and grape seed oil<\/a> for renewal, for example. The multitasking Prose hair oil can be used as a treatment prior to washing, to smooth frizz, and as a styling product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A natural solution to give gray hair an infusion of hydration is castor oil. \u201cCastor oil is great for moisture because it can help the circulation of the scalp,\u201d Rivera says. \u201cThe best way to apply it is after shampooing, apply the oil from the scalp to the ends and wrap hair in a warm towel for 10 minutes. Then rinse it out very well.\u201d Another option is when you\u2019re at the salon, Rivera recommends getting a gloss, which can make the hair shinier and help protect it for at least a few weeks.<\/p> Finally, there\u2019s always good old water to help hydrate dry, gray hair. Rivera says, \u201cDrinking water and certain food of course is an important part for the health of the hair, and to avoid stress<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\nFocus on your scalp <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
