Homemade Therapy for your Hair

Everyone desires strong and lustrous hair, but with the rise in pollution and increasing stress in people’s lives, hair becomes weak and begins to fall easily. Now a person need not go to a hair expert for hair loss or dull hair. Not only it leads to loss of one’s precious dollars but also it subjects the hair to a lot of chemicals.

There are lots of homemade therapies that will help you get that luster back in your hair and make them stronger. These therapies use regular foods that most will likely have in their kitchen. These hair treatment therapies use ingredients that are both natural and affordable and will cause fewer side effects than the chemical-loaded hair treatment options that are available in the market.

Therapy for Hair

Here are six homemade treatments that will help combat hair problems without the use of chemicals:

Eggs

Eggs are helpful for every type of hair whether it dull, dry, frizzy etc. This is because egg yolk is rich in proteins and fats, which are moisturizing agents. The egg whites contain healthy bacteria which eliminates unwanted oils. Egg albumen is better for oily hair. Egg yolk mixture is more suitable for brittle and dry hair.

Use half a cup of whichever mixture is suitable and apply it on moist hair. Use more if the hair is not fully coated. Keep it for 20 minutes and wash with cool water and then shampoo your hair. Yolk treatment can be done monthly while albumen technique can be done once every two weeks.

Avocado

It will not only strengthen your heart but your hair too. It is usually suggested for frizzy hair. It has proteins and oils which will help to moisturize your hair without causing hair fall. Add few drops of peppermint essential oil to a mashed half avocado. To begin with wash your hair with a shampoo, then squeeze the water out and apply it. Keep it on for 15 minutes and then wash it. The hair will become very soft. You can increase moisture in the hair by adding a couple of tablespoons of yoghurt, egg yolk or oil. You can use this technique once every two weeks.

Yogurt or Sour Cream

Many chemical products may cause your hair to lose its shine and become dull. Yogurt and/or sour cream are dairy products that will help to get back that luster.
