What I do from time to time is
Sealing ends of my hair with EVOO- Coconut Oil, shea butter and or Moisturizer. Then putting my hair in a ponytail then placing a plastic bag over it. I will try to find you some examples.

What do you all mean by sealing your ends? and how do you do it? and what is baggy? ALL THESE TERMS!!!

When I baggy my choice is either baggy my ends, or a whole-head baggy. To do a whole head baggy, I simply spritz my hair with whatever wet leave-in I have, the I apply my creamy leave-in. Then I cover my head with a cheap plastic shower cap, and then I tie the head down with my silk/satin scarf. In the morning, my head is completely moist from root to tip, beacuse none of the moisturizers were able to evaporate thru the plastic cap. I then put my hair into my daily bun, and go!! For me its a great solution if my hair is feeling exceptionally dry for whatever reason. However, I don't do this back to back, and I don't do it too often either for fear of over moisturizing my hair into a gummy, strechy mess.

When I baggy my ends only, I like to use ORS Carrol Oil. Its great for preventing dry, split ends. I start with parting the hair into 5 sections. I simply spritz my hair with my wet leave-in first...( I like Giovanni VitaPro Fusion, or DooGro Leave-In growth treatment..), then I apply ORS carrot oil to the length of my hair. I then take each section and put an ouchless/snagless band around it. Then I get a sandwich bag...those cheap ones that you can get 500 in a box for $1.99, & the have the plastic flap to seal your sandwich....I take one of those for each section, I put the ends of the hair into the sandwich bag & wrap that the best way I can. After all sections are done, I tie down with a silk/satin scarf.

the next day, the ends are so very moist, and not dry at all. Its also something I do when I feel the ends of my hair needs special TLC.

Finally, when I seal my ends, I simply apply a heavier oil over the moisturizer that I have put on. It "seals" the moisture in, and slows down the air from vaporizing the moisture out of the hair.

I know others have their own methods of accomplishing the same thing, so hope this helps.
