​10 natural ways to get great hair

Spending too much on expensive shampoos, but not getting the desired results? Instead of spending on those branded shampoos and conditioners, you can indulge in home remedies for hair. Follow these easy and simple beauty tips for hair to give that lustre and shine, and flaunt your hair like the models do...

2/11

Egg treatment

If you have dry or brittle hair, use egg whites to moisturize your hair. Use ½ cup of any egg mixture (egg white, entire egg) and apply to clean damp hair. Leave it for 20 minutes and rinse with cool water. Repeat this process once a week for better results.

3/11

Avoid hot water

Skip hot water showers, because hot water will make your hair dry and brittle as it strips protective oils from your hair. Thus, prefer a temperature which is just a bit warmer than your body temperature.

4/11

Bottle gourd treatment

Extract some bottle gourd juice and apply it to your hair. Keep this solution for 30 mins and wash it off thoroughly.

5/11

​​Baking soda therapy

Make a mixture of 3 tbsp of baking soda and some water. Rinse your hair with this solution after shampooing. Let it be for at least 5 minutes before the final rinse. This therapy will help remove the excess shampoo and styling product from your hair.

6/11

​Don't wash your hair frequently

Wash your hair every 2-3 days, for proper regulation of natural hair oils. Washing your hair less often will also help regain your hair's natural body and lustre.

7/11

Make your conditioner

For a protein packed conditioner, mix eggs and yoghurt, and apply the mixture to your scalp. Leave on for five or 10 minutes, and then wash it off completely.

8/11

​For strong hair

Use almond oil to treat dry and damaged hair. Pour some almond oil into a bowl and heat it for 40 seconds. Then evenly distribute on your hair. Leave it on for 30 minutes and then rinse normally with shampoo and conditioner using cold water.

9/11

​Hairbrush technique

Avoid using a comb with plastic bristles to prevent hair breakage from static electricity. The best way to brush your hair is by first brushing the ends to remove tangles and then take the long strokes from the roots of the hair to the ends. This technique will help in properly spreading natural hair oil and thus, prevent breakage.

10/11

​Do not brush wet hair

Wet hair is three times weaker and is more likely to break. After washing your hair, towel dry your hair first and then gently detangle your hair using a wide tooth comb.
