Home remedies : Deep conditioning for dry damaged hair!

This particular post is requested by one of my friend, Manmeet, so here it goes!! Long before the stores were full of medicines and products to fix our daily problems, people used home remedies to make their lives better. Today, home remedies are still used to treat everything from the common cold to frizzy hair. There are many home remedies for frizzy hair.Here are some that i think worked well..

#1 Home Remedy Frizzy Hair – Olive Oil

Very few of us are blessed with the full, shiny hair we see on shampoo commercials. Rather, to achieve this kind of hair, we have to work daily to maintain healthy follicles. The first of the home remedies for hair care is olive oil. The health benefits of olive oil have been researched for many years. Recently, it was discovered olive oil could also create healthier, stronger hair. If you need help for thin, frizzy hair, simply apply a few drops of olive throughout your hair once daily. Additionally, you should add warm olive oil to your hair for at least 30 minutes, once a week. This hot oil treatment will prevent your hair from becoming frizzy and unmanageable.

#2 Home Remedy Frizzy Hair – Mayonnaise

Mayonnaise is one of the most inexpensive, yet highly effective, home remedies for frizzy hair. If you’re wondering how to fix frizzy hair, simply condition your scalp with mayonnaise on a regular basis. Your hair will be healthier, shinier, and frizz-free. When you condition your hair with the mayonnaise, make sure you let it set on your scalp for at least 15 minutes. This allows the key ingredients to soak into your hair to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment.

Home Remedies for Frizzy Hair: Final Word

While these frizzy hair home remedies are incredibly cheap, they may weigh down your hair. Especially if you are prone to oily hair, you should invest in a frizzy hair products with light ingredients like jojoba extract. Try to avoid silicon based frizzy and damaged hair products, as it will build up on your hair, making it heavy and oily looking. Look for a light, leave-in frizzy hair product.
