HOW TO TREAT YOUR HAIR NATURALLY WITH FOOD

You don't need to spends hundreds of dollars at a hair salon buying product that will take care of your mane! Plenty of items in your pantry or fridge can be used to treat hair naturally and keep it healthy.

Yogurt: Yogurt has long been known to be a great hair conditioner, and has been used to replace hair conditioners all together. You can buy a bottle of hair conditioner that has ingredients meant to imitate the results yogurt gives you, or you can just apply yogurt instead. Purchase plain yogurt, the normal full fat kind, and run it through your hair in the same way you would a rinse out conditioner. Your hair will be baby soft and have a great shine.

Avocado: Avocado does wonder on limp, lifeless hair and treats problems like split ends naturally. If you need to treat lifeless hair that lacks luster, mash an avocado with a tablespoon of lemon juice. Apply the paste to your hair and tie it up for twenty minutes. When the time is up, rinse the paste completely out of your hair and enjoy the new volume!

If split ends are your issue a quick avocado fix will straighten your problem out until you get yourself into the salon. Mash an entire avocado and add a cup of coconut milk, apply the paste to the tips of your hair and let it do its magic for fifteen minutes. Your split ends will no longer be noticeable when you rinse out the paste and the temporary fix will last about a week.

Cornstarch: Perpetually greasy looking roots could use a quick cornstarch treatment to help absorb an excess of oil in your hair. Rub some cornstarch into the roots of your hair before washing and just rinse out in the shower. Wash and blow dry your greasy hair problems away.

Honey: Honey is a great moisturizer for both skin and hair, and especially coarse hair is quickly softened with a honey-based treatment. For shoulder length hair combine two tablespoons of honey will a quarter cup of olive oil (double the ingredients for longer hair). Apply the mixture to your hair and cover with a shower cap or in a bun on the top of your head. After twenty minutes rinse out the treatment and towel dry hair.
