Natural Conditioning Treatments For Hair

Once a week treat hair to a deep conditioning treatment with nourishing oils
and masks that impart useful nutrients for hair and scalp health.
For extra dry and brittle hair, use oil treatments twice a week
until you see results.

Fresh Hair Mask: This age-old treat for the hair should be used with
tepid water (hot water might lead to a curdled, scrambled egg effect).

1 egg yolk, beaten
3 tbsp natural yogurt
1 tsp avocado oil
4 drops essential oil of carrot seed

* Combine the oils with the beaten egg and natural yogurt in a large
bowl. Whisk until a smooth, runny paste is formed.
* After shampooing, massage into wet hair from roots down. Rinse very
well with cool, then tepid water. Finish with a blast of cold water.

Dandruff Scrub: Use this as a replacement for conventional antidandruff
shampoos.

2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tbsp runny honey
1 tbsp dried mint
1 tsp very finely ground black pepper
1 drop each essential oils of black pepper and peppermint

Mix together the oil and honey. Next, stir in the mint, pepper, and
the essential oils. Apply to dry hair and massage deeply into the scalp
for 10 minutes, feeling the skin move over the underlying bone.
Rinse well with warm water to get rid of any bits before shampooing.

Herbs For Shine: Following the final rinse, pour a pot of cooled herbal
tea over your hair. Sage tea for shine.

Rinse Well: After shampooing you can’t rinse hair enough. Using plenty
of clean water and gradually taking the temperature as cold as you can
to create shine.
