Parts of my hair have been bleached to high hell for over a year, so it needs TLC. These are the bottles currently sitting in my tub. The formulations are nourishing and I never come away from a wash feeling like my hair is overly squeaky and stripped. Aveda's products always have a calming hippie fragrance (this product combines bergamot, lavender, and ginger lily notes); I always feel like I'm at a day spa when I use them.- Estelle Tang, Culture Editor

Olive Oil

Olive oil is the most popular home remedy for dry hair. The rich vitamin E and antioxidant content present in olive oil help heal damaged hair by sealing the cuticle, or outer layer, with moisture. Olive oil can be used as a hot oil hair treatment to strengthen, add shine and restore moisture to very dry hair.

Put enough olive oil for the length of your hair in a cup or bowl and slightly warm it in a microwave.
Apply the warm oil thoroughly over your scalp and hair shafts. Massage your scalp gently for five to 10 minutes.
Cover your hair with a warm towel and leave the oil on overnight, or at least for 30 minutes.
Finally, shampoo and condition your hair with products suited to your hair type.
Do this at least once a week to give your hair much-needed nourishment and care.

Tea

You may think of tea as a sore throat remedy, but you can also use it to give hair a natural shine. use a quart of warm, unsweetened tea (freshly brewed or instant) as a final rinse after your regular shampoo. Tea can enhance hair color, so make sure to use a tea that works with your hair color. Blondes should use chamomile tea; black tea may darken their tresses. Brunettes should use black tea to enhance shine and enrich color.
