An important feature of kefir
And experts say, and reviews: a hair mask made from kefir and eggs has a brightening effect. If the hair is natural, it will become lighter and lighter over and over again, and the difference will be noticeable immediately after the first application. For joy, we note that the color will turn out to be good, beautiful, not faded. But if you dye your hair, everything will be just the opposite. Kefir will wash the dye, and since we know that our natural hair does not hide under the paint, because the chemistry deforms the pigment and it becomes brown, gradually the color of your hair will become just that. The upper shell of the paint is washed off, an incomprehensible shade will remain. Therefore, in such cases, it is recommended to refrain from all subsequent recipes or to use kefir very rarely - once every two to three months.
Now we will consider the most effective hair masks from kefir and eggs, as well as from other components that will have one or another effect on the hair.
Classic recipe
This is the simplest and most common hair mask made from kefir and eggs, based on only two of these products. Proportions are determined by length. On curls of medium length you will need a glass of kefir and three eggs. There are several secrets here, and they need to be studied in order for you to get the most pleasant result.
- You can mix a pure egg with kefir only if your hair is normal and you make a mask in order to restore their shine, silkiness, etc.
- If the curls are dry, mix the yolks with kefir.
- In the case when the hair is oily, proteins are mixed with kefir.
- Another pitfall. Kefir washes not only hair dye, but also silicones. Therefore, if for a long time you used exactly these means, after several procedures with kefir, your hair will become a little drier, begin to fluff. A natural product will wash away the chemistry, and when it completely copes with this task, it will begin to nourish every hair.
Keep a classic kefir mask for about an hour. So she will have time to soak the hair with useful components and will not greatly affect their shade.
Moisturize dry hair
Such a mask will be useful if you apply it on curls once a week for two months. After that, we take a break and restore the course of treatment again. So, here is the recipe for a hair mask from kefir, eggs and oil.
- Kefir - must be fat, from 3.5% - 1 cup.
- Eggs - take only the yolks - 3 pcs.
- Oil: avocado, almond, coconut, cocoa, linseed, burdock. Choose any - 2 tbsp. spoons.
All ingredients are mixed and slightly warmed so as not to be applied to the hair in a cold form. We distribute the mixture on the roots and the entire length and keep it on the hair for an hour. It is advisable to wear a hat so that the beneficial components are more firmly fixed on the hairs under the influence of heat.
Treat oily hair
This is not an order if you have to wash long curls every day. Moreover, if in the morning you wash them, and in the evening they already turn into icicles. There is a way out, and this is a simple and affordable hair mask for kefir, eggs, honey and mustard. How to cook it?
- We take kefir fat-free, a maximum of 1%, a little more than half a glass.
- We separate only the squirrels from the eggs and slightly beat them - 2 pcs.
- Honey - 1 tablespoon.
- Mustard - 1 tablespoon of dry powder.
The mask is beautiful not only with its drying effect, but also with growth stimulation. If you initially rub the mixture into the roots, and only then distribute it along the entire length, then it will burn a little, that's right. So, she intensified blood circulation in the scalp, and soon you will notice that the hair will become thicker and their growth will accelerate.
Next, we will present masks that are suitable exclusively for brunettes and brown-haired women.
Dominated by chocolate
If you thought that you would have to heat a bar of chocolate to make this recipe, you were mistaken. We will use the raw material from which this product is made - cocoa. A hair mask with kefir and egg, seasoned with cocoa powder, is an excellent therapy for thin and lifeless hair that has lost its shine, shade and strength.
- Half a cup of kefir (the percentage of fat content is chosen depending on the tendency of your hair).
- Eggs (protein or yolk, depending on the type of hair) - 1 pc.
- Cocoa - 2 tbsp. spoons.
The proportions may increase or decrease depending on the length. Mix everything thoroughly and apply to the hair with a brush, alternately sorting out the strands. Wrap in a bun and put on a hat for 2 hours.
Coffee motifs
Another hair mask, which also has not only a healing, but also a coloring effect. It is easy to prepare, but washed off for a long time: coffee grains are strongly clogged between the hairs. Ingredients:
- Half a glass of kefir.
- 1 egg
- A tablespoon of coffee grounds.
- Burdock oil - 1 tbsp. a spoon.
First we work with the scalp - we massage it with this mask. You will get a kind of peeling that will exfoliate the stratum corneum of the skin, and new hair follicles will awaken, your hair will become thicker over time. Then we distribute the rest of the mask over wet hair, wrap them and hide under a hat for 1.5 hours. It will take a long time to rinse, but the result is worth it.
Well, now the masks that are suitable for blondes and those who want to become.
For dry and fair hair
Lightening hair is always accompanied by their drying out, because we actually burn out the color, therefore, we must be ready for “burns” in the form of brittleness, cross-section and other defects. To make them lighter, but not dry even more, it’s worthwhile to properly prepare the mask. For her you will need:
- 1 cup of very fat yogurt.
- 2 yolks.
- 3 tablespoons of oil - coconut, almonds, shea.
- Ground cinnamon - 2 tablespoons.
- Prepare a chamomile broth in advance, in which add a few drops of ylang-ylang oil.
So, apply the mask along the entire length with a brush so that everything is evenly distributed. Keep it on your hair for about 3 hours, then rinse and rinse with a decoction of chamomile with essential oil. Chamomile will enhance the lightening effect, and ylang-ylang will give hair shine and aroma.
