My hair is neither dry or greasy. Why would I want a product for damaged hair To me, that is over dyed hair that has become brittle. My skin nowadays probably leans towards dryness but I wouldn't necessarily want a product for dry skin as it may be too rich for my skin. Wokeness again denying that there are all sorts of types.

	I heard this and at the time I thought that 'normal' would probably become 'regular'.

	Ordinary old hair, just sort of average.

	Perhaps they should be honest and replace 'Normal' with 'Bog standard' :-D In reality. what is 'Dry' hair? My hair is dry when it's not wet. Surely they mean those with spit ends?

	I think dry means not particularly oily/greasy.

	You can't feed your hair because it is dead, you can only leave some products on it to make it look good.
