We all love to have nice hair. But given the fact that our hair is exposed to so much environmental elements, hair care products in the market rarely do the trick. Here are home remedies that can help, says ROSHANI DEVI
Given that our hair is exposed to sun and environmental elements, to have nice shiny hair is almost an impossible dream. Or is it? Here are a few simple things that one can follow:
First, use an egg. The only problem is that it stinks when you put in on. But the end result is worth all the smell. Mix one egg white and tablespoon of olive oil and honey into a paste. Apply this paste on damp hair and scalp. Leave it for 30 minutes. Wash your hair with shampoo and cool water. Follow this treatment once a week.
Apple cider vinegar is a great moisturiser for the hair. Mix one part of apple cider vinegar with one part of water. Wash your hair with shampoo and then pour the solution on the scalp. Leave it for a few minutes and then rinse it off with cold water.
Third, use aloe vera. Prepare a paste with four tablespoons of aloe vera gel, two tablespoons of coconut oil and three tablespoons of yogurt. Apply this paste on damp hair and leave it on for 30 minutes. Wash with lukewarm water.
Honey is good for shiny hair too. Mix two tablespoons of honey in two cups of warm water. Put the mixture in a spray bottle. After shampooing, spray this solution on your hair. Massage your scalp for five minutes and leave it on for 15 minutes. Rinse it out with warm water. Do this once a week.
