Enrich your conditioner
Shop bought conditioner can be enriched by adding, for example, some vegetable oil, honey or mashed avocado just before use.
Conditioning hair mask
1 banana
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Mash the banana and mix in the oil. Spread into towel-dried hair and wrap in a towel. Leave it to work for about half an hour. Rinse out and wash as usual. Honey can also be added into this hair mask.
Nutritive hair mask
1 egg
Honey
Splash of vegetable oil
Gently warm the oil and add the honey. Break the egg’s consistency and add it into oil and honey. Spread the mixture into towel-dried hair and wrap in a towel. Leave it to work for about half an hour. Wash as usual. The honey can be substituted with water or natural yogurt.
Moisturizing hair mask
1 ripe avocado
Vegetable oil
Mash the avocado with a fork and mix in some vegetable oil. Spread the mixture into towel-dried hair, leave it to work for about half an hour and wash as usual. The oil can be substituted with coconut cream, whisked egg or mayonnaise.
Honey conditioner
Soft, runny honey
Vegetable oil
Egg whiteMassage the mixture into hair and leave to work under a towel wrap for half an hour. Rinse out and wash.
Nettle rinse
Dried or fresh nettles
Boiling water
Infuse the chopped nettles in hot water for about twenty minutes, strain and leave to cool. Use the nettle water in the final rinse or massage onto the scalp. The rinse adds shine and is good for the scalp. This is a good rinse for dark, oily hair. For fair hair, use brightening chamomile tea in the similar way.
Beer rinse
After washing, rinse the hair with beer. This adds shine and thickness. The scent of the beer will fade quickly.
Cold waterAfter washing, rinse the hair with cold water. This increases the blood circulation in the scalp and closes the hair follicles.
