The wealth of any girl is not in material values, but in her attractiveness. Smooth and delicate skin, a thin flexible mill, and most importantly - a cascade of well-groomed hair. But not always our appearance corresponds to our expectations or the expectations of others. Skin requires regular care, a figure is the result of a healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition.
Hair is also not a 100% gift from nature. Any girl can “make” herself a luxurious head of hair by proper care. If hair is like straw, what to do in this case? In a post we will talk about how to properly care for your hair.
What is the cause of dryness?
If your hair is like straw, what to do? But before we answer this question, let's figure out what leads to such a quality of hair. In fact, there may be several reasons. One of the most common is the harmful effects of sunlight. There is no enemy more sophisticated for skin and hair than the sun, or rather useless ultraviolet rays. If you want to keep youth and health, be sure to use sunscreens in the hot season and wear a hat. In recent years, women's hats have become fashionable again, and wide caps and baseball caps for young ladies have never gone out of style.
Nutrition
Strange as it may seem, but in fact, what we eat is the basis of how we look and how we feel. Those people who eat fully and absorb a sufficient amount of amino acids (and they are found in foods rich in proteins) look fit and well-groomed. If you like flour and sweets (and these are useless fast carbohydrates with fats), then you doom yourself to an unattractive appearance.
Dry hair like straw signals that it is time to change the diet. Include cottage cheese, eggs, chicken and red fish in your food, but it’s better to give the bread, tasty rolls and sweets to the enemy.
Excessive hair care
Strange as it may seem, those ladies who care too much about their hair can also have dry hair. If a hair dryer or hair straightener is your best friend, then do not be surprised at the poor condition of your hair. Dry hot air and thermal effects in large quantities are no less harmful than the sun. Try to let your hair dry at least several times a week, and use the iron only if necessary. If you simply have to use a hairdryer often, then turn on blowing with cool air.
Frequent dyeing also dries hair
As a rule, those girls who often dye their hair can “brag” of dry hair. After highlighting like straw, curls can become, even if the procedure is performed correctly. Dry curls also affect girls who are painted in light colors - a strong brightener not only kills the dark pigment, but also takes away all the moisture that is contained in the hair.
How to bring back beauty?
If you think that shampoos and balms can work a miracle and restore shine to your hair, then you are mistaken. Even the most expensive shampoo or hair mask is a chemical product containing aggressive sodium lauryl sulfate and other non-useful components.
Hair can be cured in a more effective way, and almost for free. Make masks that have been tested for decades, which are made up of natural ingredients.
Mask recipes
The most popular mask recipe is a mixture of egg yolk and cognac, if your hair is like straw. What to do to get such a mask? Take 50 grams of any brandy and mix it with the yolk of one egg. Apply the mixture to your hair, put on a shower cap and warm your head with a towel. After half an hour, you can wash off the mask from the hair and dry it in the traditional way. Repeat the procedure once every four days for a month.
The second recipe may not appeal to ladies because of the onion smell after application, but believe me, the result will surprise and please you. So, hair, like straw - what to do? All that is needed for such a mask is three tablespoons of onion juice, one tablespoon of honey, one egg yolk, one tablespoon of burdock oil and one tablespoon of sodium lauryl sulfate-free shampoo.
Combine all ingredients and apply to dry hair. Leave the mask for an hour, then rinse off. While the mask interacts with the hair, warm your head well with polyethylene and a towel.
Mask or oil?
It is not necessary to bother making masks if your hair is like straw. What if you do not want to mix different components and conjure over a mask? You can use oil to nourish your hair with strength and moisture. Of course, burdock oil is the most popular, but do not dwell solely on it. Try castor, coconut and even the usual olive. To prevent your hair from being dry, lubricate your scalp with a little oil and rinse off after half an hour with shampoo water. Shampoo can be anything, but it is best used without sodium lauryl sulfate.
Following these simple tips, you can make your hairstyle beautiful, and your hair shiny, healthy both outside and inside.
