Hair Series Part 3 - Care For Your Hair The Natural Way

Oily Hair :
Jojoba Oil :
Jojoba oil controls overactive sebaceous glands (cells that produces oil), so try this treatment:
Mix 20 drops of Tea Tree oil with 4 teaspoons of Jojoba oil. Apply the mixture to dry,unwashed hair working it in a downwards motion to keep the cuticles flat.Comb through and leave overnight. In the morning , shampoo it out , rinse and condition as usual. Repeat this every 10 days.



  

Honeydew Melon:
Honeydew melon has an astringent effect :
Mash 1/4 of a melon and run the juice through your hair. Leave for 10 minutes and shampoo out.
       









Dry Hair:
Banana Mask:
Mash a ripe banana with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and smooth it on your hair from the roots to the ends. Massage into your hair and scalp,wrap your hair in hot towel and leave for 15 minutes.Rinse and shampoo.





Normal Hair:
Avocado Mask :
Mash an avocado, massage it in to your hair and cover your head with a shower cap. Rinse out after 30 minutes , shampoo and condition.

Light Conditioner:
Normal hair can get away with a light conditioner : mix together 3 drops each of neroli,lavender, chamomile and rosemary essential oils.Smooth this blend over clean, towel-dried hair , but avoid the scalp. This penetrates immediately, so there's no need to rinse.
