Homemade Hair Care Cosmetics

There are many hair care products in stores, so why you should go natural? First of all, this way you will know what exactly do you use for your hair. Regular shampoos usually contain a lot of synthetic additives that can harm you. If your conditioner is called ‘honey dream', it probably only smells that way, but it doesn't have the healing properties of honey.

The other reason to try homemade cosmetics is the better effect. Why should you use a shampoo that contains coconut oil if you can use the coconut oil itself? The natural materials are much more efficient as they are pure, while cosmetics only contain natural things as additives.

What products are good for keeping your hair strong and beautiful? If your hair is poor and tends to fall out, wash your hair and apply egg white or coconut oil on your scalp gently. Leave it there for 15 minutes and then wash it off. This mask will keep your scalp nourished and healthy.

Hair suffers from the damaging influence of sun, cold, polluted air and other factors of everyday environment. A good nourishing mask can restore natural strength and make hair more damage-resistant. How to make a nourishing hair mask at home? Take a few spoons of mayonnaise or yogurt for the base of mask. Low fat yogurt is not suitable for this, you need to choose plain yogurt. Mix the mayonnaise or yogurt with fruit or vegetable pulp. You should choose additives by your hair type. If you got normal hair, mash some peaches; if your hair is dry, choose mashed avocado pulp. Watermelon or cucumber is the best for oily hair treatment. After you've cooked the hair mask, shampoo your hair and wash them well. Gently massage the mask into your scalp and apply it on hair. Make sure that all the hair is covered with paste. Rinse the mask after 15 minutes and repeat this delicious ritual once in a week or two. This natural hair mask has nourishing and softening effects so you don't need to use any additional hair mask or hair conditioner.

If your hair is damaged by coloring or a chemical hairdo, you will need stronger remedy to strengthen it and prevent split ends. Hot oil treatment can help you in this case. Pour a few teaspoons of any vegetable oil into small pot and the place it into a bigger pot with boiling water. Leave the oil to warm up for several minutes, but don't wait too much. The oil has to be warm, but you should still be able to pour it on your hands. Apply the warm oil on your hair and brush it with comb for better distribution. If you have scalp problems, apply the oil few inches away from scalp. Put a plastic bag on you hair and wrap it with towel for keeping the oil warm. Wait for a half of hour for the best results and then wash it away with shampoo. If the oil makes your hair too heavy, you can pour a half of cup of vinegar into a pot of warm water and rinse your hair with this mixture.
