20 Fabulous Homemade Hair Packs for Gorgeous Hair
Revitalising Elixir for Dry/Dull Hair:
Ever thought your pint of beer could be the missing ingredient for lustrous locks? Combine an egg yolk, 1 tbsp of beer, castor oil, and honey. Smooth this luxurious mix through your tresses, from the roots to the very tips. Pop on a shower cap and swaddle your head with a cosy towel. After a refreshing 30 minutes, wash it out and give it a final rinse with apple cider vinegar. For maximum radiance, indulge in this three times a week!
Strengthening Banana Bliss:
Take two ripe bananas and blend them to perfection. Stir in a dollop of mayonnaise, a hint of olive oil, and a few aromatic drops of lavender essential oil. Spread this creamy delight through your hair and let it work its magic for half an hour. When rinsing, lukewarm water does the trick. Oh, and if you make a bit too much? Pop it in the fridge for next time!
Potato Power Pack for Hair Loss:
Yes, you read that right! Start by grating a large potato and extract its juice. Whisk in a touch of aloe vera gel and honey until it’s perfectly blended. Give your roots a gentle massage with this concoction. Slide on a shower cap, top it off with a towel, and relax. In about 2 hours, it’s time for a warm water rinse. Twice a week, and you’ll be waving goodbye to hair loss.
Milk & Honey Hydrating Hug:
Merge the natural sweetness of honey with a glass of raw whole milk. Drench your locks with this hydrating hug, wait for around 25 minutes, then shampoo it off with lukewarm water. It’s as simple and delightful as it sounds.
Tropical Coconut Cream Caress for Dry Hair:
Dreaming of the tropics? Extract the creamy essence from the bottom of a fresh green coconut. Give it a brief warm-up in the microwave (just 7-8 seconds will do). Slowly work this tropical dream through your hair. Wrap up in a warm towel, dive into a book or some music, and after an hour, rinse out and let your hair air-dry. It’s a mini-holiday for your hair!
Banana & Almond Symphony:
Marry the rich creaminess of a ripe banana with the nourishing touch of almond oil. After a thorough mix, lavish your hair with this symphony of ingredients. Post a 25-minute serenade, a rinse with apple cider vinegar or flat beer is ideal.
Strawberry Surge for Hair Growth:
Got overripe strawberries? They’re perfect for a hair treat! Puree a cup of these red jewels, blend in an egg yolk and a splash of olive oil. Once you achieve a smooth texture, let your hair soak in this antioxidant-rich potion. A plastic cap ensures no drips. After a 20-minute treat, wash off with your favourite shampoo. Your hair will be singing praises in no time!
Ravishing Black Tea & Rum Hair Elixir:
Whip up an invigorating blend of 4 tbsp robust black tea and a dash of rum. Begin at your roots and let the mixture cascade down. Give it a solid hour to work its wonders, then rinse. A hint: it’s like a cocktail party for your hair!
Mayo-Avocado Embrace for Damaged Tresses:
Combine the creamy essence of avocado with luscious full-fat mayonnaise in a 1:2 dance. Lavishly spread from roots to ends and after a dreamy 30-minute wait, a cold-water rinse seals the deal.
Mystical Fenugreek Solution for Dandruff & Hair Fall:
Let fenugreek seeds (or as we lovingly call them, methi) soak overnight, unlocking their magic. Craft a paste the next morning and indulge your scalp. A 20-minute pause later, it’s wash time.
Gram Flour Protein Powerhouse:
Presoak 3 tbsp of black gram overnight. By dawn, blend into a paste or opt for gram flour. Stir in a whisked egg, lemon’s tang, and a dollop of full-fat yoghurt. Drizzle onto your locks and let it sit for 30 minutes, then rinse.
Electrifying Growth Stimulation Concoction:
Blend black pepper and lemon seeds in equal spirits. Brew dried rosemary until the essence is halved. Introduce your spicy blend into the cool brew. Add a touch of curd, smother onto your locks, then, after a zesty 15 minutes, give it a cold rinse. Note: if it starts to tingle too much, wash it out!
Voluminous Elixir for Oily & Limp Locks:
Squeeze a fresh orange and mix in the sweetness of honey, a hint of sandalwood oil, and dilute with water. Use this as a rinse post-shampoo, leaving it for 10 minutes. Finally, a cool water cascade to seal the deal.
Egg-Milk Shine Shower for Dull Locks:
Whisk two eggs into 3 tbsp of decadent full cream milk. Anoint your hair with this blend and after basking for 5-7 minutes, a white vinegar rinse will unveil a dazzling shine.
Frizz & Split-End Guardian:
Harmonise an egg yolk with olive oil, coconut oil, and the richness of vitamin E. Infuse rosemary essential oil’s charm and a touch of honey. Attend each strand, especially the rebellious ends. After a 30-minute pamper session, a thorough wash beckons.
Papaya Power Play for Split Ends:
Purée a seed-free ripe papaya. Mix with yoghurt, saturate each strand, and post a 30-minute relaxation, it’s rinse o’clock.
New Dawn Hair Elixir:
Soak black chana dal and fenugreek overnight. Blend with honey’s sweetness, castor oil’s depth, jojoba oil’s lustre, and zesty lemon oil. Smother from root to tip with extra love for the roots.
Hibiscus Bliss for Vulnerable Tresses:
Unwind the magic of two hibiscus flowers, soaking overnight alongside six of their delicate petals in water’s embrace. Morning comes, and a fusion with extra virgin olive oil and raw milk transforms this into a rejuvenating blend. Devote 20 minutes, letting it soothe from root to tip. A chilly rinse, and it’s as if your hair had its own refreshing spa day!
Curry Leaves’ Remedy for Greying Strands:
Embrace the power of 20 curry leaves, submerged overnight in crystal water. Alongside, let a stick of ratanjot bask in pure coconut oil’s glow. Come morning, the oil turns a mystic red, hinting at the alchemy within. Combine the robust curry leaves (water drained) with this captivating oil. The resulting paste, once massaged into your scalp, is nothing short of enchanting. Grant it an hour or so to weave its charm, then cleanse. Perhaps a lemon juice rinse? Or maybe a herbal shampoo, the choice is yours.
Henna’s Nourishing Embrace:
Let pure herbal henna powder slumber in an iron vessel, serenaded by black tea rather than plain water. Dawn sees the addition of a spoonful of your chosen oil (be it olive, coconut, or jojoba) and a splash of lemon. The morn also presents a choice: creamy yoghurt or a whisked egg to amplify the mix. Now, the commitment varies – a mere half-hour for conditioning, or perhaps an entire day for a deeper hue. Whichever path you choose, expect enhanced texture, spirited growth, and a shimmer that’s hard to ignore.
With these blends at your fingertips, the journey to dreamy, radiant hair is but a pamper session away. So, invite nature into your hair care routine, and watch your locks gleam with gratitude!
