Current hair care routine

Current hair care routine

Like most women I adore my hair and try my absolute best to take great care of it. 
I was blessed with poker straight, thick hair. I don't own a G.H.D or a straightener of any type
and rarely curl or crimp my hair. The odd time I might braid it and sleep on it overnight to give it a little cute beach wave. I don't claim to be an expert on hair because I am not, I just enjoy learning new things and trying out new hair masks, D.I.Y recipes,
then sharing about how they have worked for me. 

This simple D.I.Y mask is my fave.
I like to treat my long locks to a protein rich mask treatment that literally takes seconds to apply.
This mask is so effective and so inexpensive to make, which is what most of us woman want.

What you need: eggs

Normal hair- Entire egg to condition hair.
Oily hair-Egg whites only to remove excess unwanted oils.
Dry hair- Egg yolk only to moisturise dry, brital hair.

* Use 1/2 cup of whichever egg mixture is appropriate for you and apply it to clean, damp hair
* Leave on for 20 minutes, rinse with cool water to prevent the egg from “cooking” and shampoo your hair as normal.

Whole egg and yolk treatments can be applied once a month
Whites only treatment can be applied every two weeks.












My next holy grail for hair care is coconut oil. This can be purchased in any health shops and most stores such as Tesco, Aldi, Lidl etc.
Studies say that coconut oil is hands down, one of the most effective hair treatments. It is said that coconut oil actually works better than any man-made treatments on the market, and because it's 100% natural it's free of silicone, alcohols, and other chemicals that can irritate sensitive skin and hair.

It works unbelievably well for repairing my damaged ends, I love to use this as a hot treatment conditioner every 2-3 days. I melt it in the microwave, apply it while its still hot and leave it in for up to 10 minutes then rinse with warm water. Sometimes I leave it on over night and braid my hair, depending on how dry its feeling, but WOW does this work!














Ladies have a go of either one of these and see how they work for your hair, I am not claiming to be an expert by no means, but these have worked wonders on my hair and are so inexpensive and easy to use. Its also an excuse to pamper yourself, so get to it ladies, you'll have that shiny silky smooth hair in a matter of minutes.
