To improve dry hair, let’s apply the “Daifuku Theory.” When making daifuku, the outside is coated with powder to prevent the filling from drying out. Let’s take this idea and apply it to hair care. 

First, when washing your hair, use a gentle shampoo. Harsh cleansing agents can strip away the protective “powder” from your hair, leading to dryness. After shampooing, use conditioner to replenish the “powder” to restore moisture to your hair. In this way, you are protecting your hair just as the outer layer of the daifuku protects the filling. 

When drying your hair, allow it to air dry whenever possible, or use a hairdryer on a cool setting to gently dry it. Excessive heat will rob your hair of moisture, similar to exposing a daifuku to direct sunlight.  

Your diet is key as well. Eating nutrient-dense foods that are good for your hair is like filling your daifuku with the finest red beans, making it healthy from the inside. Be mindful to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals. 

Lastly, don’t forget to protect your hair from dryness and UV rays by wearing a hat or scarf when going outside. This is akin to storing daifuku in a box or bag to maintain its freshness. 

Just as the daifuku maintains its freshness and delicious flavor, with proper care,  you can protect your hair from dryness and keep it healthy.
