Everyone wants hair that looks fantastic, but you don't need to use man-made chemicals to improve the appearance of the hair on your head. Consider using these natural methods for increasing the amount of hair on your scalp along with ensuring that the hair strands are in the best condition.
Natural Secret 1: Eating A Nutritious Diet
One of the easiest ways to improve the condition of your hair is with your diet. If you aren't eating a balanced diet that includes an assortment of foods, then you can have a mineral or vitamin deficiency. Add more fresh fruits and vegetables to your daily menus, but also, make sure to eat enough protein so that your hair is healthier. Include whole-grain foods and low-fat dairy products in your meal plans.
Natural Secret 2: Drink More Water
When you aren't drinking enough water, your body begins to turn off certain functions. If you are dehydrated, then your organs must continue to function, but you can live without any hair on your scalp. Continual dehydration leads to dry or brittle hair, and also, you may notice that the loss of hair increases. Your hair follicles may become damaged too, leading to less new hair growth.
Natural Secret 3: Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse
While shopping at the supermarket, look for a bottle of apple cider vinegar to make a natural rinsing mixture for your hair and scalp. Mix equal portions of the vinegar and warm water in a bottle so that you can apply the substance to your hair while you are showering. This natural treatment can remove the buildup of hair products from your hair along with the excessive amounts of oil. Rinse your hair thoroughly to remove the odor from the vinegar. After your hair dries, you will notice that it feels cleaner and looks shinier than before.
Natural Secret 4: Vegetable Oil Treatment
If you have a dry scalp or hair, then you can moisturize naturally with vegetable oil. You can use olive or other types of vegetable oils by rubbing a small amount into your scalp or combing it through your hair. Wrap your head in a warm and moist towel to hold in the oil for a few minutes before washing your hair with a gentle shampoo. Use this method approximately once a week to reduce the dryness of your hair and scalp.
Natural Secret 5: Massaging Your Scalp
By increasing the blood circulation of your scalp, you can improve the appearance of your hair. This can also stimulate the hair follicles on your scalp to encourage the new growth of hair. You can massage your scalp with your fingers at anytime of the day, but many individuals like to do this while washing their hair in the shower.
Natural Secret 6: Banana Pack Treatment
Buy honey and bananas at the grocery store for this hair pack treatment. Mash the ripe bananas in a bowl before mixing in a small amount of honey. Wet your hair in the shower before applying this mixture to your hair. Place an old shower cap on your head so that the honey and banana mixture becomes warmer. After 30 minutes, you can wash and condition your hair before drying it.
Natural Secret 7: Egg Treatment
While shopping for food, look for eggs so that you can make an egg white hair mask. Crack the eggs to separate the yolk and the white portion. You can use the yolks for cooking, but the white portion is useful as a treatment for your hair. Apply this mixture to your damp hair while you are in the shower, and leave it on your hair for approximately 15 minutes. Rinse your hair and wash it normally after this treatment.
Choose the Proper Shampoo and Conditioner
Make sure to choose the proper shampoo and conditioner for your hair's type by reading the labels on the products carefully.
