Best Homemade Hair Masks For Dry Hair

 

Dry and Frizzy hair can be really troublesome for every single person out there!

There is no doubt that hair is the only feature that makes 90 percent of a person’s personality. Even if you have no makeup on, a good hair style can make you look 100 percent attractive.

Everyone wishes to have manageable, sleek and shiny hair regardless of the texture they have. It does not matter if you have curly, wavy or straight hair. If your hair is dry and frizzy, you do not only  lose your confidence but the hair start breaking and can sometime lead to alopecia as well (especially for those who wear hijab or buns on a daily basis).

 

Why does hair get frizzy?

There are numerous reasons for hair to get damaged. Constantly exposing your hair to sun, pollution can make your hair damaged and brittle. Stress and poor diet can also be a factor.

If you have already reached at a stage where your hair is already damaged, dry, dull and frizzy then the very first advice that I will lend you will be to make changes in your diet. Start eating healthy diet enriched with proteins plus make sure to intake eggs, milk and green vegetables on a daily basis.

Other than consuming a healthy diet, there are many products available in the market including various medical treatments that one can go for improving their hair health and we will dedicate a post to them separately in future.

But today in this blog post, I am going to enlist five best homemade hair masks that are not only natural but very inexpensive and healthy for your hair. By using these hair masks, you will not only revive the health, shine and thickness of your hair but your hair growth will also increase during this process.

Without wasting any time, let us just start reading about the five magic homemade hair masks that will help you get shiny, smooth, silky and thick healthy hair that will last longer because all these remedies are natural and do not include any chemicals unlike the store bought products!

 

1- Luke Warm Coconut Oil

No one can deny the benefits of coconut oil. It does not only absorb well in your hair, but enrich your hair with health and shine using the Vitamin E present in it. Other than having Vitamin E, this oil also contains UV protection, hence protects your hair from sun damage.

You may have used this oil already in different ways, but the way that works better is to always use Luke Warm Coconut Oil in your scalp. You can either make it warm by heating it in the microwave over for few seconds or heating it over the stove top directly or by keeping it inside a bowl with hot water to increase its temperature.

Once the oil is Luke warm, start applying it on your scalp in circular motions with light pressure. Keep massaging your scalp for 10 to 15 minutes or even more and then apply the left over oil to your ends.

Let this mask sit on your hair for at least two hours or overnight and then wash the next day with a mild shampoo. You can use this mask twice or thrice a week and the results will be awesome.

You can also do the inversion method whilst massaging this oil in your scalp, which will increase its benefits and help you with your hair growth as well.

 

2- Banana, Yogurt & Olive Oil

I call this mask the Magic Mask because it does not only make your hair shinny and frizz free but it also stop hair fall even with only first use of it.

There was a time when my hair was breaking badly. My hair would be everywhere on the floor and everyone would complain about that. Then one day whilst searching about this hair fall problem online, I found this recipe and fell in love with it after I used it on my scalp.

To prepare this mask add one or two bananas (if you have thick and long hair you may need more) into a blender, then add yogurt based on your hair length and thickness and then add in two to three table spoons of olive oil into the mixture and blend it well.

Once the mixture is prepared, apply it on your scalp and also on your whole hair length and let it sit for two to three hours. After three hours, wash your hair with mild shampoo and let your hair air dry.

You will see the results in your very first try. You can use this mask once a week.

 

3- Yogurt, Olive Oil & Egg Yolk

Your hair will love this combination. This protein and vitamins enriched mask will make your hair shiny, frizz free and healthy.  Egg yolk contains vitamins like Vitamins A, E and biotin that are needed by every hair type, whereas yogurt makes your hair hydrated. By combining egg yolk with yogurt and olive oil, you are giving your hair a whole new health regime that will make them sleek, soft, hydrated and healthy when used in the long run.

To make the mask mix one egg yolk into yogurt as per your length and thickness of hair and two to four table spoons of olive oil. Spread it evenly all over your scalp and hair length and then let it sit there for two to three hours. After two to three hours, wash your hair with cold water and mild shampoo and dry them without using any heating tools.

This mask can be used once a week and will change the shape of your hair when used regularly every week. Your hair health will be restored in the healthiest way possible and you will love running fingers through your hair all over again.

 

4- Coconut Oil, Olive Oil & Castor Oil

I just love this combination and this blend of oils is always present in my hair care section. I keep refilling my bottle whenever I run out of it. The easiest thing about this blend is that I can apply it almost daily if I want to and not having to keep it in my hair for long hours. But I still sometimes let it stay on my hair overnight.

You can combine Olive oil and coconut oil in equal amounts and then add half the amount of castor oil. Whilst the coconut and olive oils are known for hydrating the hair and making it healthier and thicker, the blend of castor oil makes both the oils do wonders by boosting the hair growth as well.

Castor oil is known to treat alopecia as well. You can use normal castor oil or Jamaican castor oil if available in your country.

You only have to apply this mixture on your scalp and hair length and then wash it after one hour. This can be done before taking a shower and is really effective and easy method to make your hair frizz and damage free.

 

5- Mustard Oil

Mustard oil is really underrated guys!

This oil single handedly can beat all the other masks and oils when it comes to giving health, shine and growth to the hair. It cannot only be applied to the hair but even is used to cook food in Asian households.

I just love this oil and I use it for my skin as well. It is the best cooking oil, best moisturizer for skin and the best hair mask one can ever get in such an inexpensive rate.

The only thing that you will need to do is applying in on your hair from scalp to hair length and then massage gently. Let it sit on your hair for an hour if you are in a hurry to wash your hair or let it sit overnight if it does not bother you.

You can use it almost every single day and it will change the game of your hair. Your hair will become shiny, the hair growth will double and the frizz will disappear forever when used regularly.
