Guest guest Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Hi, where I live it is a very DRY climate. Worse in the winter with the furnace being on so much. I know our humidifier works wonders! I even use one in my bedroom & can sure tell the difference.

This is our first winter here and are not used to it yet. My daughter (13) has very dry scalp, which we are not used to. We have never had this problem before. We are wondering what, if any, home remedies there may be for this condition. They wat $4.00 a bottle for dry scalp shampoo at the store, and she has VERY long hair, so she uses more shampoo than the rest of us do.Thank you in advance for any advice you may have.**************************************************WWW.PEACEFULMIND.COM Sponsors Alternative Answers-HEALING NATURALLY- this is the premise of HOLISTIC HEALTH.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 a little trick a friend of mine( she worked in a hair salon and had her own business) taught me yrs ago is to dilute shampoo with water , half and half.( she told me that most shampoos are nothing but detergent and very drying to hair and scalp)..I had very long hair too , (I could sit on mine when she taught me this)and always had dry scalp due to heat ( lived in NH , woodstove and forced hot air heat, long heating seasons up there) ...also dont use a hair dryer if possible , that is very drying to the scalp and hair ...a rinse with vinegar is good too , helps with the itch of dry scalp....mix vinegar half with water , pour in hair and on scalp...leave in...smell will go away when dry...also if you have any Lavendar oil add some to the shampoo , great for the hair and scalp. hope this helps some ....Lisa , " dragonmajesticka <slb725d> " <slb725d> wrote: > We live in a trailer with forced air.
