Why does hair need moisture?

November 15, 2024

Think of your hair as a sponge. Just as a dried-out sponge becomes brittle and breaks easily, your hair becomes fragile and prone to breakage when it lacks moisture. Here are some common reasons why hair loses its natural moisture:

  • Overuse of heat styling tools: High heat dries out the hair and can cause damage.
  • Chemical treatments: Dyeing and bleaching strip the hair of its natural oils and moisture.
  • Weather effects: Sun, wind, and cold air can make your hair dry and lifeless.
  • Lack of the right products: If you don't use products that add and lock in moisture, your hair can quickly become dry.

How to Moisturize Your Hair – Step by Step

1. Clean gently

Many shampoos can be too drying, especially if they contain sulfates. Choose a mild, moisturizing shampoo that cleanses without stripping your hair of its natural oils.

  • Recommended product: Caring Shampoo from The Every enriched with hyaluronic acid and avocado oil to moisturize hair and scalp while being gentle on sensitive hair.

2. Use a moisturizing conditioner

After shampooing, it’s important to lock in the moisture with a good conditioner.

  • Recommended product: Caring Conditioner from The Every the same moisturizing ingredients as the shampoo, plus Piroctone Olamine to soothe the scalp and promote healthy hair growth.

3. Apply a deep-conditioning hair mask

Give your hair an extra moisture boost by using a hair mask once a week.

  • Recommended product: Caring Masque from The Every packed with shea butter and hyaluronic acid to help repair and moisturize even the driest hair.

4. Protect from heat

If you use heat styling tools, always apply a heat protectant to minimize damage and lock in moisture.

  • Recommended product: Nourishing Heat Protection provides both heat protection and hydration, thanks to ingredients like hyaluronic acid and provitamin B5.

5. Finish with a hair oil

Hair oil is perfect for taming frizz and giving your hair a silky finish.

  • Recommended product: Renewal Hair Oil is a lightweight, vegan hair oil from The Every contains argan oil and rosehip oil to provide deep nourishment and shine.

Tips for retaining moisture

  • Wash your hair less often: Washing your hair too often can dry it out. Wash it no more than 2–3 times a week.
  • Use a wide-toothed comb: It reduces breakage and keeps your hair soft.
  • Protect your hair while you sleep: Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction.
