7 moisture-rich hydrating products to combat dry hair and scalp in 2022

Dry hair can manifest as breakage where hair is brittle, dehydrated and has a “crunchy” feel to the touch. A dry scalp will give way to dandruff and dry patches. When combating dry hair, it’s essential to look for products that are liquids and gels infused with proteins, oils, and of course hydrators. These will ensure that once hair is has restored its nourishment, the moisture is locked in and hair hydration can be maintained for longer. Our Beauty pros have selected the best products for each stage of the cleansing routine. The wash and conditioning stage are all about getting your hair into water to clean and provide a clean slate for the conditioner to add and restore the new nutrients balance. The moisturising is the final stage to maintain hydration gained through washing and conditioning once hair starts to dry off.

Washing:

This is the stage where dry hair can benefit most due to direct contact with water. A great shampoo for dry can should work to deeply cleanse the hair by removing product buildup and blockage, as this allows water particles easier access into your scalp. Here are our top picks:
