Hi lovelies!
In the previous post we have read
about causes and remedy for dry and damaged hair.
Let me take you through the beauty page of my blog of how hair masks
help repair
Damaged hair and some of the DIY masks you can
try home.
How
hair masks work?
Masks can help
remove oil and dirt from your hair and give it a shot of moisture, making it
shinier and more manageable. They also serve as a deep conditioner.
You can use a hair mask as often as once a week, although for many people once
a month is enough.
It’s easy to make your own masks at home as you can control the
ingredients, modifying the mask for your hair’s needs and ensuring your mask
doesn’t contain any unwanted chemicals. Masks are great choices for gently
counteracting the damaging effects of hair coloring, blow drying etc, and are
very relaxing.
DIY hair masks:
I have personally tried most of the masks mentioned below and I
have definitely noticed a difference!
NOTE: Once you’ve applied any of these
masks to your hair, wrap your head in plastic wrap or
wear
a shower cap for at least 20-30 minutes — your body’s
heat will help the mask work.
After the time is up, rinse out the
mask and wash your hair with a gentle shampoo.
1)
Coconut mask: Massage coconut cream directly
into the scalp (sold in cans at grocery stores).
2)
Egg+ yogurt mask: Mix one egg with two tablespoon
of yogurt and work through your hair.
3)
Banana mask: Blend one banana, one egg, three tablespoons honey, three
tablespoons milk, and five tablespoons olive oil or almond oil. Spread the
mixture through your hair.
4)
Avocado mask: Mix one avocado, one tablespoon honey, and two tablespoons
olive oil. For dry hair and dandruff,
blend the avocado with one tablespoon each of lemon juice and aloe gel, and one
teaspoon sea salt.
5)
Olive oil mask: Blend two tablespoons olive oil with one egg. Olive oil is
extremely moisturizing while egg will add shine to your hair.
6)
Mayonnaise mask: one egg+ 2 tablespoon of olive oil+ 2 tablespoon of vinegar. Mix
well and massage slowy into the scalp.
7)
Honey mask: 2 tablespoon of honey+ 2 tablespoon
of castor oil+ one egg. Blend well and apply evenly from hair roots to tips.
8)
Fenugreek mask: Take ½ cup of fenugreek seeds and
soak in water overnight. Blend well to make a paste, the next morning, and
massage into the scalp.
9)
Herbal Henna: This is a well know traditional
remedy to all the hair problems. Soak 1-2 cups of henna (depending on hair
length) overnight. Apply to the hair the next day.
That’s all for now!
Have fun! See you all soon!!!
