When you have dry and damaged hair, it is typically caused by exposure to the sun, chemical processing or overuse of thermal-based styling products. To start repairing your hair, you should avoid these things. To restore moisture in the hair, specialty shampoos and conditioners made specifically for dry hair can be used on a daily basis.

Phyto Phytonectar Shampoo and Phytosesame Conditioner

Wash the hair daily with Phyto Phytonectar Ultra Nourishing Shampoo and Phyto Phytosesame Express Hydrating Conditioner with Sesame Oil for Dry Hair recommended by the Hair 101 website. At the very least, you should use the products every three days. Ingredients include sesame oil, witch hazel, orange blossom and soybeans. Place a dime-size amount of the shampoo on the hair and massage into the scalp. Leave in place for approximately two to three minutes before rinsing. Wring out extra moisture from the hair and then work the conditioner into the hair starting at the roots through to the ends. After three minutes, you can rinse out the conditioner. A weekly deep conditioning treatment and leave-in conditioner is available from Phyto Phytonectar if your hair is severely damaged.

Aussie Moist Shampoo and Conditioner

Aussie Moist was highly rated through the Total Beauty website. The Moist collection from Aussie not only includes a shampoo and conditioner, but also a two in one shampoo. The two in one not only cleans, but conditions the hair in one easy step. Ingredients used to restore moisture to dry and damage hair are jojoba oil, aloe and sea kelp. If you don't use the two in one, shampoo the hair as normal. Once all residue from the shampoo is removed, apply the conditioner to the entire mane. Leave on for approximately two to five minutes before rinsing thoroughly. Aim for daily application of the products to hydrate your locks.

Herbal Essences Hydralicious Shampoo and Conditioner

Hydralicious is the line of products from Herbal Essences formulated for individuals with dry and damaged hair and recommended by the Fashionable Gal website. The products restore moisture to the hair that is dry due to environmental and styling damage. An herbal blend that includes shea butter, algae and citric acid is used to restore hair. After using the Hydralicious Shampoo and rinsing from the hair, apply a generous amount of the conditioner with the help of a wide tooth comb. After approximately three minutes, rinse out all residue.
