Money-Saving Homemade Hair Treatments













Money-Saving Homemade Hair Treatments 

Every woman aspires to look her best. Be it their skin or hair, they are always on their toes to ensure that everything is just perfect. Especially when it comes to their hair, nowadays women are opting for natural treatments. These homemade therapies are a great alternative to the time consuming and expensive salon treatments.

1. Protein mask
For those suffering from delicate and fragile hair, here is a very effective homemade mask. Apply a protein smoothie made up of two ripe bananas, two egg yolks, and three tablespoons of honey and olive oil each. Blend all the ingredients together. Apply it all over your head including the scalp and the hair strands, and leave it for half an hour. Wash it off with cold water for thicker and bouncier strands.

2. Curl enhancer
If you are suffering from unmanageable curly hair, try the following hair pack instead of going for any pricey salon. Take half a cup of maple syrup, two bananas, four tablespoons of lemon juice, quarter cup of olive oil, and two tablespoons of all-purpose flour (maida). Mix all the ingredients well, remove any lumps and warm over a stove. Apply this 'super-hydrating' mask all over your head and cover it with a shower cap for 45 minutes. Rinse it off and see your curls becoming softer and manageable like never before.

3. Moistening mask
Wedding preparations and shopping can make your hair dull and lifeless. So to add a little shine and moisture, try this simple avocado mask at home. Mash half avocado and add a few drops of your favourite essential oil to it. Firstly, shampoo your hair properly and then apply this mask. Rinse off after 15 minutes, and you will experience the super soft tresses. If your hair quality is considered as something called extra dry, you can add egg yolk or yoghurt to your mask.

4. Anti-dryness treatment
The age-old secret for great hair is an overnight massage of coconut oil. Heat up the quantity of coconut oil, which would be sufficient for you, and apply it all over your scalp with the help of your fingertips. Rub a little oil along the hair strands. Leave it overnight and shampoo off in the morning. This is one of the easiest treatments to nourish dry hair.

5. Shine enhancer
Another secret for shiny hair is a treatment with apple cider vinegar. It smoothens and clarifies hair cuticles, hence giving you healthy and shiny tresses. Dilute a tablespoon of vinegar with half a cup of water. Pour this solution over wet hair, and comb through. Let it rest for five minutes before rinsing off and see the results. If you want, you can add few drops of essential oil for fragrance.

6. Treating oily hair
Dealing with oily hair is a battle in itself. Try a simple home treatment that will help you to get rid of all the extra oil. Mix five tablespoons of curd with one tablespoon of lemon juice and one tablespoon of baking soda. Apply this mixture on your hair. Let it sit for half an hour and then rinse it off . Apply the mask once a week for best results.
So, now you know how to get rid of that excess oil from your hair.

7. Mayonnaise mask
Thanks to the pollution and harsh sun, almost every bride complains of dry and brittle hair. Try this extremely simple and effective homemade mask for soft and smooth hair in no time. Mix half a cup of mayonnaise with two tablespoons of honey and apply it evenly all over your head. Cover the hairs with a shower cap for an hour and wash it off with a shampoo. Mayonnaise and honey will deeply condition your hair making them soft to touch and easy to manage.
