In order to look beautiful our hair have to go through so much! But this can often lead to dryness and damage.First we need to analyse the problems of hair damage.It could be due to so many things , even the basic things like water and shampoos can damage our hair.For eg if we shampoo too frequently or use harsh shampoos often.Swimming in chlorinated water can also damage ur hair!Chemicals such as those present in hair colors,perm lotions and hair straighteners , electric curlers blow dryers can cause severe damage to your hair.
So now we have analysed the various causes and I would like to share some quick fix tips for damaged hair with you!
1) EGGS AND MAYONNAISE :
This one is my favorite.Hair experts recommend applying mayonnaise or egg honey mixture on damaged hair and leaving them for at least 20 mins or if u have time preferably overnight.Wash hair with mild shampoo afterwards.
2)COCONUT OIL:
I know u might have heard this like so many times before but trust me coconut oil does wonders for your hair. In this cold weather your hair are left feeling so dry.Just apply coconut oil by hand and leave it overnight. Wash it with mild shampoo and you will feel your nourished and so soft.(and dont forget to apply the oil on the hair tips also)
3)BEER:
Beer is also recommended for damaged hair.Spray beer from a pump sprayer onto freshly washed towel dried hair before blow drying.Beer gives a healthy shine to dull hair and also acts as a setting lotion.Hair does not retain its odor because it disappears quickly.
4)BANANA AND AVOCADO PUREE left on damaged hair for 15 minutes also helps a lot in treating damaged hair.
These are simple yet effective methods to treat hair damage. Just give them a try and I am sure they will surely be helpful.
