You can help nature along with the "wonder vitamin": E. It's great for spot-treating dryness. Simply puncture a 400 I.U. capsule and rub the oil (you can substitute wheat germ oil) into any dry spots before going to bed. Leave on until morning, then wash it out in the course of your regular shampoo.
When your whole scalp is dry, or has been abused by sun, swimming, perms, or coloring, you might want to try this heavy-duty treatment:
The Vitamin E Cure
Puncture one 400 I.U. vitamin E capsule and squeeze contents into a small cup. Add 3 tablespoons of avocado or sunflower oil. Mix well and comb through hair.
Wearing rubber gloves, soak an old towel in hot water. Wring it out and then wrap it, still steaming, around your head. Leave the towel on until it cools. Repeat wrap and steam 7-10 times. With diluted shampoo, shampoo hair 3-4 times to get rid of all the oil.
