Happy hair day: top DIY treatments
1. Hair detox, scalp cleansing
This stage matters enormously. It gives you a chance to banish the dirt and product buildup that get on hair during the day – unfortunately they also affect the scalp. Clearing the strands and skin of oil is one of the key things.
Use a scalp scrub or simply reach for a clarifying shampoo. Note that micellar shampoo also works great since it makes a perfect pick for delicate hair and sensitive scalp.
2. Hair oil treatment
Oil treatment is a perfect way to care for the hair as well as the scalp. 5 ml of the oil is more than enough for the hair lengths and skin on the head. Gently massage the oil into the hair and scalp to increase the blood flow and stimulate hair follicles, making hair stronger. Oiling treatment provides essential ingredients: omega acids, vitamin, micronutrients and unique flavonoids and plant sterols that have a powerful beautifying and nourishing effect.
To do the treatment correctly, apply the oil on damp, shampooed hair (ideally use a clarifying shampoo to open the cuticles). In turn, the oil penetrates the hair structure more easily for deeper nourishing.
Leave the oil in the longest possible: watch a movie and wash the oil out after the closing credits. Remember to choose the right oil for your hair type. If you’re having problems, get an evergreen, perfectly-working argan oil or jojoba oil.
3. Hair mask
The mask and oil treatment ideally complement each other. It turns out that the mask neutralizes the greasy particles: apply the mask on oil-covered hair about five minutes before rinsing. While you wash out the mask, the oil comes off easily. Now, towel-dry the strands and use a spray leave-in.
If you’re looking for a recipe for the best natural hair mask, try the supermodels’ hit – the easiest mask in the world. You probably have the ingredients in the kitchen:
- egg yolk
- five spoons of beer
Mix the components and apply on the hair.
You can also make use of beer in a different way: for the final rinsing. Apple cider vinegar has a similar effect – it boosts the shine because it closes the cuticles.
4. Hair serum
Keep your hair ends safe because they’re the hair part that gets hurt the fastest. After shampooing, always rub a natural oil (2 drops will do) or serum into the tips of hair.
Are you searching for a natural hair-enhancing serum? Try the hair-junkie hit: flaxseed gel conditions the hair and adds the gloss not weighing strands down. Pour boiling water over the flax seeds and leave them for the night. Drain them and pour the resulting gel into a jar.
