Aloe vera and oil pack

It's a known fact that aloe vera aids hair growth and if you mix half a cup of aloe vera with half a cup of coconut oil, you can bid goodbye to your frizzy hair, at least temporarily. Apply this oil mix to your hair and let it stay for an hour. Now wash your hair off with your favourite shampoo.
4/6

Apple cider vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is known to be a natural cleanser and if applied to hair it not only helps in getting rid of the dirt but also smoothens hair down. Dilute 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in two cups of water. Now, shampoo your hair with a mild shampoo and rinse your washed hair with the apple cider solution. Doing this once a week will considerably straighten your hair.
