Hair Care

All you need to know!
Maintaining your hair is not an easy task, selecting the right products to use, from shampoos to Oils and conditioners can be very tricky. Knowing what type of hair you have is important in selecting products for hair. Hair is made of protein, so keeping a healthy diet is essential too. My post tells you about what you can do at home to get unbelievably beautiful hair! Also, it'll be guiding you about the right products you should be using.

For hair growth, may i present you the miracle mask! Trust me, this one's plain magic. I recently had my hair cut, Inverted bob, and not that i didn't like it or anything, but i wanted my hair to grow as fast as it can and with this mask, my hair happen to grow faster then ever! In like a month i noticed my hair growth was fast and my hair were thicker and fuller! You can see the difference in the picture below, two months later results. (p.s i know i gained weight in my second picture so ignore my fat face, haha)
Mask recipe is very simple, based on the fact that Mustard powder warms the skin of head and causes a rush of blood to the hair follicles.


Magic of Mustard powder.


Things you need:
2 tablespoons of dry Mustard powder
4 tblspns of hot water (not boiling)
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons of olive oil
2 teaspoons of sugar

Directions:
Add water to mustard powder till its smooth and mixed properly, add the yolk, mix, add oil and sugar and mix. Apply to the roots. You can use a thick brush to apply it evenly. Let the mask on for about an hour and then wash your hair with shampoo, twice to get every bit of the mask washed away. Do this twice every week and you'll be noticing the result in a month!

Next comes, Hair Repair Mask.
For softer, lighter hair, may i present you the hair repair mask that won't disappoint you, na-ah, it can't. I do this very often and this one's my favorite! It's very simple and has just three ingredients that you can easily find in your very own kitchen!


Things you need:
2 tbsp honey (organic)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Directions:
Mix all ingredients in a small bowl until they are well combined. On dry, unwashed hair, apply to the roots and through combing your hair distribute evenly. Clip you hair up and leave the mask on for an hour. Wash, shampoo well and use conditioner if you would like. Happy healthy hair!

1- A little Olive oil plus a little honey can make a good hair mask too. For beautiful, SOFT, manageable hair.
2- Maple syrup plus coconut Oil is perfect too for soft shiny hair, leave the mask on for an hour, wash, shampoo and yaay!

You can now make your own leave-in-conditioner for damp hair with just three things!
