Dry hair treatment

There are several remedies to make dry hair shine with life and vitality. The most effective is conditioning it with henna or mehndi. Mix about 100 grams of henna with one whole egg, a teaspoon of lavender oil and a tablespoon of fresh cream.


Whip well and apply to hair. Wash this off with a mild herbal shampoo after two hours. This remedy can be used every other week.

For a weekly routine, add enough gram flour to a cup of coconut milk to make a smooth paste and rub into hair. Rinse after half hour with a mild herbal shampoo. A warm oil massage and hot water fomentation of the scalp is also a very effective way of nourishing dry hair down to the roots. After the massage, soak and squeeze out a towel in hot water and cover the hair with it. Repeat this at least twice, and then wash hair with warm water and a mild shampoo. You can use coconut, olive, lavender, almond or indian gooseberry (Indian gooseberry) oil for this massage. You can leave the oil in your hair overnight and wash it off after fomentation the next morning. This procedure followed at least twice a week will make the hair soft and shiny.
