In our time, there is not a single girl who would not dream of a perfect appearance: a slim figure, a healthy face and beautiful, well-groomed hair. It is the latter that brings a lot of trouble. Endless shopping trips in search of the perfect cosmetic product again end with an unsatisfactory result. All these masks, shampoos, balms have the same composition, only the difference in names, price and good advertising.
The secret of our mothers and grandmothers is simple: for hair care, they used products that everyone has nowadays.
There are many grandmother’s recipes for hair care, which have become the calling cards of many famous cosmetologists and hairdressers. But if you do not have the money or time to go to the professionals, you can prepare these miracle remedies at home. To achieve a good result, you need to apply them in courses. They have many advantages: cost-effective, affordable, proven, do not contain carcinogens and harmful substances that cause hair loss and disrupt their structure. You can name at least 100 such masks. But today we will talk about the most affordable ones.
Kefir mask
To prepare it, you will need home-made or store-bought kefir. The amount of this drink depends on the length of your hair. It is very important that it is not cold: to do this, heat it in a water bath to room temperature.
Apply to wet hair, massaging the scalp, and spread over the entire length. Then cover with polyethylene, and on top with a towel for insulation and leave the mask for 1-2 hours, then rinse with plenty of warm water and wash your hair with shampoo. The effect is amazing: the hair is soft, moisturized and shiny, and the procedure itself will not take you much time. Many cosmetologists recommend using this mask once a week for 2-3 months.
Egg Yolk Mask
The recipe is as follows: mix 2 egg yolks with water, strain through cheesecloth, apply to wet hair. After an hour, the mask should be washed off with water. It is used for thin and emaciated hair, prevents the appearance of dandruff.
Burdock Mask
Burdock oil can be purchased in many pharmacies and cosmetics stores. Rub it into the hair roots once a week, leaving it for 1-2 hours, then rinse with plenty of water and shampoo. It is used, like all the others, in courses – 2-3 months. Helps to get rid of split ends, hair loss and breakage, as well as dandruff.
Mayonnaise mask
To prepare this mask, you will need natural mayonnaise (without preservatives, dyes and modified starch). It is quite easy to recognize it: the shelf life of natural mayonnaise does not exceed 2 months. Apply it from the roots to the ends of the hair for 15-20 minutes, then rinse with plenty of water and shampoo. Most often, this mask is used in the cold season. Mayonnaise very well nourishes the scalp and moisturizes the hair. It is recommended to use no more than 1 time a week to avoid the appearance of an ugly greasy shine.
To make your hair not only beautiful, but also healthy, we recommend that you follow a few of our tips:
- To prevent the appearance of brittleness and dryness, you need to hide your hair under a hat, scarf or hood. Due to temperature changes, especially in winter, our hair loses its beauty, healthy shine and strength. After that, no masks at home or trips to the professionals will not help.
- In the summer, it is better to hide your hair under a hat. This precaution will help to avoid brittle hair and its fading.
- The split ends should be regularly trimmed to make the hair thicker and easier to comb.
- When combing the hair, it is better to use a massage brush, it is useful not only for the hair-it stimulates its growth, but also for the scalp.
- Do not wash your hair with very hot water – this can damage it. Wash your hair twice, leaving a little shampoo each time: so it will better dissolve the dirt, the hair will become smoother and will stay clean longer.
- Minimize the use of a hair dryer to avoid breakage.
- Do not brush your hair immediately after washing, as this can damage its structure.
- And, of course, do not limit your imagination in the use of various folk hair care products.
In conclusion, I would like to wish you to have such hair that anyone would envy their beauty and health. Let them be your pride, not your humility.
