Absolutely essential before making a homemade hair mask

Determining What Type of Hair Grows on Your Unicorn Head

Before choosing a homemade mask recipe, you need to know the needs of your hair, that is to say, your scalp type.

If your hair gets greasy again quickly (a day or two after washing) and is dull, you probably have an oily scalp due to excessive sebum production (yuck). We will therefore recommend the mask for oily hair or the anti-dandruff mask if you have dandruff. (there are some that accumulate) Not very nice all that but hey you don't choose your hair!

If, on the contrary, your hair is fragile and brittle with slightly split ends (witch type) and you have difficulty detangling it, we recommend the mask for dry hair or the repair mask for damaged hair.

And if you don't fit into any of the above descriptions, congratulations, you are the happy owner of the classic / standard hair tuft more commonly called normal hair and we will then recommend the recipe for shiny hair (but not too much) or the softening mask .

If you fall into one of the first two categories and feel like crying before and after every shampoo: don't panic, nothing is permanent in the glittering kingdom of hair!

Paying a little more attention to your hair, skin, diet and well-being should also help you. Think gentleness, meditation and avoid unnecessary stress!

Making masks to repair your hair is good, the best thing is not to ruin it. To help you take care of your hair, we have developed the gentlest shampoo in the world, which foams like crazy and without any disgusting products in it. It is made in France and it is zero waste.

Applying a homemade hair mask to your mane in intensive care

The key to the success of a homemade hair mask is the break time of the druid mixture that you are going to spread on your hair. So for the recipes below to work at full speed, make sure to respect an application time of at least 30 minutes. And ideally, wrap your hair in a towel during the break because the heat of your bubbling unicorn skull will facilitate the opening of the hair scales and therefore the penetration of the mask deep into the fiber and that is good for you.

Please also note that with the exception of masks for oily and anti-dandruff hair , you should not put these masks on the roots.

1. Homemade hair mask for dry hair

Does your hair look like Kurt Cobain's peroxide-spiked mane? You have a surfer girl face, a sun-beaten face or you cultivate the grunge look to excess. Don't touch anything. Your unhealthy hair is an essential element of your look!

For the rest of you, those who want to get back on the straight and narrow path of healthy hair on a healthy body, grab a lawyer. Yes, yes, I swear you'll see.

The recipe for a mask for dry hair

1 avocado
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 egg yolk

The recipe for a mask for dry hair

First, mash the avocado. Then, beat the egg yolk and oil into a mayonnaise.

Be careful here, don't go making me this recipe with industrial mayonnaise eh!! I can already see the big lazy people thinking that making mayonnaise is boring. Yes it's true but hey, you're the one who wants to make a homemade mask, not me right?

Then add the mixture with the avocado puree and start spreading with your fingers and leave for 30 minutes. Rinse with clean water then head to the shower for a good shampoo.

It's not magic but it will help and at least you're only smearing good stuff on your hair. Nothing chemical, no petroleum-based compounds etc.

2. Homemade hair mask for oily hair

Heat the lemon water then gently pour the green clay into the water to obtain a homogeneous paste. Add the 2 drops of essential oils and spread, with your big sausage fingers, this preparation in a thick layer on all of your unicorn-type hair fallen into an oil bath, massaging gently. Let sit for 30 minutes then rinse. No need for shampoo afterwards which could be a duplication and therefore come to attack the scalp unnecessarily. You have in a way made a homemade dry shampoo. You have absorbed thanks to the green clay all the fat (the sebum) that your hair produces in excess.

3. Homemade repairing hair mask

Hair dryer, hat, sun and salt, repeated blow-drying, coloring, cold… Hair is a sensitive and fragile little thing. Having a healthy life by taking the health of your hair as a goal is not the best. So don't panic, if you have a rock star life but don't want the sex pistols haircut, follow the guide.

Ingredients for the mask that is good for your hair.

2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon of virgin coconut oil
1 teaspoon of honey

How to do your restorative hair treatment?

Melt the coconut oil over low heat. Add the 2 egg yolks. Add the honey, beat and serve cold on your damaged hair. Spread the restorative mixture on your hair and leave for about 30 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with clean water before shampooing.

4. Homemade anti-dandruff hair mask

When you shake your head, does it snow even in summer? Do you even have dandruff in your eyebrows? Do you only wear white tops to hide the perpetual snowfall on your anemic shoulders? Dandruff is taboo, we will all get over it! But actually no, it goes away, it comes back. This thing is really a pain. If you also have greasy hair and brittle ends, you've hit the jackpot: good old shitty hair that's just right. But don't worry, there's always worse than that, there's baldness, holes in the hair, bald spots, psoriasis, etc.

Right off the bat I'll tell you as I think it, never buy any anti-dandruff shampoo, it'll just strip your scalp and you'll end up with greasy hair as well as dandruff. Here's a little mixture that should do you some good.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon of aloe vera
1 tablespoon of liquid honey
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon of plain yogurt

The steps for preparing the miracle homemade anti-dandruff mask

Melt the honey in the microwave in a bowl. Add a tablespoon of aloe vera, a tablespoon of olive oil and a tablespoon of plain yogurt. Mix all these ingredients to obtain a good, pasty paste. Spread the thing on the scalp. Leave on for 20 to 30 minutes during which you can read this great blog that I write during the long winter evenings or you can just do nothing like 90% of civilized humans on this planet. Then rinse thoroughly with water, preferably drinking water because drinking water is useless and we have it in our dear country.
