Try the following home remedies to take care of your dry brittle hair and bring back shine and bounce to your hair -

  • Massage 2 beaten eggs on the scalp and hair. Leave it for a while and rinse it off thoroughly with warm water. Egg would have its typical odor to get rid of it you can make the last rinse using a mild shampoo that suits your hair type.


  • To get shine in your hair rinse your hair with beer or diluted vinegar.
  • Split ends can also give hair a dry and brittle look. If you have any then consider trimming them off every 2-3 months.


  • Deep conditions your hair once or twice in a week on regular basis; conditioner should be applied only on the hair and never on the scalp.
  • Massage your hair with warm olive oil with your finger tips for 15-20 minutes, then wrap a hot towel on your head and leave it for 30 minutes. This will help to improve your hair quality. 
  • Avoid use of harsh chemicals, styling products, blow drier, and heat iron as it can further damage your hair quality.
  • Preferably carry an umbrella or use a hat when you step out in sun to protect your hair from ultra violet rays.
