Hair spa is a wonderful way of nourishing your
hair and with the popularity of natural hair products, it has become all the
more desirable. So how can you hair spa at home. Here's the trick. Check out
the procedure of how to do natural hair spa at home:
Oiling
Massage the scalp
nicely with warm olive oil to relax for about 15-20 minutes. Once you are done
with oiling, just wrap a towel dipped in warm water around your head. The idea
is to provide steam to your hair. Make sure the towel is well squeezed with no
dripping water droplets. The steam provided to hair helps in penetrating the
oil within the scalp.
Shampooing
Shampooing
The next step in this
hair spa procedure is shampooing. It is better if the first step is done at
night and the oil is left as it is overnight. Though in case you don't want to
keep the oiled hair overnight just shampoo them well with a mild natural
shampoo after 2-3 hours. Try not to rub the scalp with shampoo and make sure
you use luke warm water to wash the hair. The hair needs to be rinsed well with
lots of water.
Conditioning
Next condition the
hair with a suitable conditioner. It would be better to use a herbal hair
conditioner than a chemical laden one. Rinse the conditioner well till the
excess of slipperiness is gone. To make sure that every hair strand is
conditioned, make small sections of hair to apply conditioner.
Applying Hair Mask
Applying Hair Mask
Now in the last step
you would need to apply hair mask for nourishing the hair. There are numerous
herbal hair masks available in market these days. Though, you can make hair
masks at home too. Check out some of the hair masks here:
Egg and Oil Hair Mask
Make a well beaten mixture of 2 eggs and 6 spoonfuls of coconut
oil. Whisk it thoroughly to get a smooth mixture. Apply this mixture on scalp
with the help of fingers. The heat produced by the friction of fingers while
massaging would help the oil penetrate deep into the scalp thus, nourishing the
hair. Cover the hair after applying it evenly all over the head rinse it off with
a herbal shampoo after 20 minutes.
Banana and Milk Hair
Mask
Mix one mashed banana
with one beaten egg, 2 tablespoons of honey, 3 tablespoons of milk and 5
tablespoons of olive oil. Mix all together thoroughly to get a smooth mixture.
Apply it evenly all over the head and wash it thoroughly with a herbal shampoo
after half an hour. What you'll get is a shiny and healthy mane!
Mayonnaise and Honey Hair Mask
Mayonnaise and Honey Hair Mask
Take half a cup of mayonnaise and mix it well with two
tablespoons of honey. Use a blender to whip itinto a smooth cream like form.
Apply generously all over the head and than wash it off using a mild shampoo.
This one is a wonderful hair mask conditioner.
There are many alternatives to make our hair shiny and smooth but, would it be better if you will target the root cause of unhealthy hair? From what I read from articles of Tulsi, it is our own body's overall wellness that will affect everything. A healthy hair may also improve by eating healthy and stimulating your body by a good exercise too.
