    Is your hair dry all over or just at the ends? Is it dry as a result of coloring or perming or heat damage, or just dry naturally?

    Biotin is a great vitamin for hair. I use olive oil, heat it, and apply it to my ends ( a couple inches up) then wash out after I've let it sit as long as I want to. I try to do it on days I don't have plans because sometimes it takes a bit to get the oil out.

    Look into coconut oil as well, if the issue is dryness.

    "P.S." on the coconut oil...it's great as a leave-in moisturizer, but I should have suggested an amount to use; it weighs down terrible-greasy if it's over-used. Just dip the tip of two of your fingers into coconut oil, that is a solid at room temperature (it melts at slightly higher temps). Rub that tiny amount all over your hands/palms so that you have just a bit of a greasy-hands thing going, then run your hands through your hair. Rub the remainder into your hands/arms as a skin moisturizer. If you try to use any more than the tippy-tips of your two fingers, you'll look like a character from Grease, or George Cloony's character with his Dippity-Doo obsession in "Oh Brother Where Art Thou."

    It's an amazing oil to use because of its ability to penetrate the hair shaft, ya just have to go VERY easy on it.
