in 3rd Trimester

Does anyone have some advise/at home remedies to try for extremely dry hair. I feel like over the last month during my pregnancy my hair has gotten so dry! I also want to make sure its baby friendly since i am 33 weeks pregnant!!!

I have already tried leaving my conditioner in my hair for an hour than washing it out. I have also been using leave in conditioner when i style my hair.

    Ok.... DON'T do THAT! It will actually make your scalp look greasy and do no extra good for your hair.

    What shampoo and conditioner do you use?

    How often do you wash your hair? 

    Do you blow dry your hair? 

    Curl or straighten your hair?

    If you blow dry or curl your hair, what do you use as a style cream/mousse etc? 

    Is it colored or highlighted?

    Are you taking a prenatal vitamin?

    I'd been battling really dry hair and skin, so I try to shower every other day instead of every day.  On non-shower days I take a washcloth to the pits to freshen them up, and that's helped my hair and skin a lot.

    What shampoo and conditioner do you use? I recommend Hello Hydration by Herbal Essences

    How often do you wash your hair? I recommend every other day

    If you want to leave your conditioner, then it should be a LEAVE IN conditioner like Long Term Relationship by Herbal Essences (only put on the middle and ends of your hair)

    Do you blow dry or curl your hair? Make sure you are using a hair styling product that takes the heat and protects your hair... never ever blow dry or curl your hair without a hair product on it.  

    Is it colored or highlighted? Those treatments dry your hair... lay off of them for a while if you are. 

    Are you taking a prenatal vitamin? Make sure you are eating well and taking a prenatal. It will only help.
