Determining Your Hair Type:Shampoo your hair properly before a day you undertake this test.Take a tissue paper and press it on the center of the head and behind the ears. If you find traces of oil on the tissue paper then your hair is oily or else dry. If your head is oily and ends are dry, you have a combination hair. If your hair is non-greasy and is shiny, then it is dry. It is very important to know your hair type before you go ahead with nourishing it. Dry hair usually owes it's texture and dullness to raised cuticles on the hair shaft. In healthy hair, these cuticles lie flat, lending the hair a healthy sheen and making it smooth and manageable. These flat cuticles also help to keep moisture inside the hair. When cuticles are raised, the hair is more porous and moisture escapes relatively easily.
