No matter how trendy your hairstyle is, if the texture looks worn-out and dull, it all falls flat. We style it over and over again, with chemical based products and heated tools, not realising the hair-damage being caused. For those dry, frizzy strands, treat your tresses with an option, more effective and less harsh. A mask of apple cider vinegar, eggs and olive oil could transform damaged hair into healthy, lustrous locks.
A thorough rinse with apple cider vinegar deep cleanses your hair, removing all product buildup and helps balance the pH level as well. Importantly, it seals the hair cuticle, which works on maintaining the needed moisture for healthy hair growth, keeping them from excessive dryness. Similarly, eggs are a key ingredient for any hair issue. The fatty acids, it contains, provide nourishment to the hair follicles and the nutrients coming from proteins, vitamins, and antioxidants repair damaged hair effectively. Olive oil too is rich in minerals, antioxidants and fatty acids, and when used with eggs, boosts the volume and shine in your hair.
Steps:
- Take 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar with 2 tbsp olive oil and 3 egg whites. Blend these into a smooth paste.
- Apply and rub the mix on your scalp and hair.
- Leave it on for ½ an hour and use a shower cap to keep it covered.
- When washing, use a mild shampoo, preferably.
