  • BOGUS! I like the ...

    BOGUS! I like the covering the hair advice. I recommend frequent washings a week. I use an organic moisturizing shampoo on my hair 2-3x a week. Every 2 weeks is doable depending on the person but that is the longest anyone should ever go without shampooing. Personally for me that's an ick factor. I trim my ends every 3-6 months. I oil my ends and the length of my hair with almond and castor oil. My hair is longer, stronger and healthier than its been in years. Protein deep conditioning is key.

    This chick is giving false info. You don't use tea tree for dryness, but for oily/flaky scalp like dandruff. Stylists have jacked up too many people to count. You should ALWAYS condition after you shampoo and it should be moisturizing conditioner.
