DIY Hair Masks to Make Your Hair Fabulous
A woman’s mane is her pride, and most of us do not hesitate to spend hundreds of dollars at the salon trying to make it glow. Going to the salon is great for your hair and lets the professionals do their job, but most of the products and styling methods used in the salon increase stress and damage to your hair.
The solution is to indulge yourself in some basic hair pampering and quality control routine using DIY hair masks. Hair masks are invaluable because they are quick and easy to use with ingredients that come straight out of your kitchen. These natural ingredients are super effective and necessary to maintain healthy, lustrous, damage-free hair. Remember to use these hair masks regularly for best results.
EggÂ
Eggs are indispensable in a list of natural items to groom healthy hair. They contain protein, amino acids, and vitamin D. These nutrients help to strengthen hair follicles, lock in moisture, and promote growth.
Blend 2 egg yolks with 2 tablespoons of olive oil or coconut oil and water. Massage the final mixture into clean but damp hair. Cover with a shower cap and leave to sit for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse out and wash the hair with a mild shampoo. You can condition lightly too.
BananaÂ
Banana hair masks are rich and greatly beneficial to damaged or brittle hair. It helps to prevent split ends, breakage, or hair aging. So, if you want to keep your strands youthful and thick, get started with a banana hair mask. Mash one ripe banana or more depending on the volume of your hair, add 1 tablespoon honey and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Blend the ingredients into a smooth paste and apply in small sections to clean damp hair. Cover with a shower cap for 30 to 60 minutes, then shampoo and condition.
All-in-oneÂ
This hair mask is everything you ever wanted and can make your home feel like a spa. In a blender add 1 avocado, 1 egg, 1 banana, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Blend into a smooth paste and massage gently into your hair. Leave it in for a few minutes and rinse out.
Next, mix apple cider vinegar with water. Apply on the rinsed hair and rinse thoroughly out after a few minutes.
These ingredients work together to clean out dirt, prevent dandruff, and moisturize the hair and scalp. They promote healthy hair growth, leaving you with fuller, shinier hair.
Coconut oil and honeyÂ
If you have fine or medium hair, this hair mask is ideal to nourish your hair follicles and protect the natural hair proteins. Mix 2 to 4 tablespoons of coconut oil with 1 tablespoon of honey. Wash your hair and apply the mixture in sections while the hair is damp. Cover with a shower cap for 30 minutes or more and rinse out.
Avocado, coconut milk, and honeyÂ
Do you feel like your hair has lost its vibrant look? Combine avocado, coconut milk, and olive oil in a blender and slather on your hair. Tie the hair into a bun and leave to sit this way for about one hour. Rinse and enjoy soft, bouncy, vibrant hair.
