Back in octoberish I started using jojoba oil and aloe Vera to moisturize my dry brittle hair. Used them maybe 3 or 4 times since and seems to be drying my hair out even more. I have noticed more of my dreads just hanging on by a few strands and 3 broke completely of at the roots. With the colder weather also playing a factor with the problem I'm now beginning to think about shaving my head after 2yrs natural. I don't know why my hair doesn't want the moisture. It's like repelling it or something! Any suggestions?

the bars should keep it healthy but try this every so often as needed 1/2 a dropper full of jojoba in 10 cups water pour on wait several min then only 1/2 rinse just to spread it around not rinse out completely
if you use aloe make sire theres nothing added only pure aloe no other ingredients some aloe has alcohol or preservatives that can dry it out
try using only the bars not liquid for awhile
also maybe do an acv rinse today maybe the ph is off?
