Dry, Damaged Hair Ruining Your Day? Worry No More

From lack of moisturization to overdoing heat styling, the reasons for ending up with dry, damaged hair could be many. Luckily, the options for treating lifeless hair are also several, and all-natural! Yes, some of your favorite fruits and ingredients lying in your kitchen could help you bring your hair back to life. Try these natural hair care treatments for hair that is beautiful from the outside and strong from the inside.

Oil massage

Improve blood circulation in your scalp and strengthen your hair strands by massaging your dry tresses with warm olive oil. Coat each strand with oil and cover your head with a warm towel or a shower cap. Let the oil work its magic for at least half an hour (better if you can keep it overnight). Wash off with a mild, natural shampoo and conditioner. Olive oil is loaded with antioxidants, fatty acids and vitamin E, which together help repair damaged hair. You can also mix some coconut oil with olive oil and apply it to your hair.

Smooth it with banana! 

Bananas are not just great for your health, but your hair as well. The fruit is rich in potassium and several vitamins, thereby providing nourishment to damaged hair and helping it become strong. Mash one or two ripe bananas (based on your hair length) with a few teaspoons of coconut, olive or almond oil. You can also add some yogurt to the mix, but make sure that the mask is free from banana chunks. It should be smooth. Wet your hair and then apply the mask, for easy application. Keep it for about 1-2 hours and wash off with a shampoo and conditioner.

Egg

Egg is a superfood for dry, damaged hair. Even a single application of an egg-based hair mask will do a lot to improve the quality of your hair. Egg yolk is full of protein, which damaged hair is always hungry for. Egg whites further help cleanse the scalp. Whisk 1-2 eggs, add 3 tablespoons of yoghurt to it and lastly mix a few drops of olive oil in it. Cover with a shower cap and place a hot towel over it. Let it sit for thirty minutes before washing it off with cold water. Never wash an egg hair mask with hot or lukewarm water.

Maintain a hair care routine, use natural products, be gentle on your hair, avoid heat treatments and eat right to see an improvement in your hair quality in no time.
