6 Easy Homemade Hair Masks For Healthy & Gorgeous Hair

Let’s be honest, we all want great hair but we don’t always take care of it. Salons may have haircare solutions such as hair spas but they’re most likely with a few chemicals, and last only 3 days. So, why not try DIY hair masks that are organic, inexpensive and have results that last way longer? The best part is that you can make these nourishing hair masks at home with ingredients that are already available in your kitchen. Here are 6 DIY hair masks that you will give you hair like Rapunzel.

1. Yogurt & Honey Hair Mask

This hair mask works wonders for dry and damaged hair. Yogurt consists of lactic acids and protein that help cleanse the scalp and promote hair growth. Honey aids in adding moisture and shine to dry hair.

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1/2 cup full-fat yogurt
• 2 tbsp honey

What you need to do:

Take 1/2 cup of yogurt and put it into a bowl. Add 2 tbsp of honey and stir. Apply this concoction to your scalp and hair and let it sit for at least 20 minutes. Wash and shampoo as usual.

2. Egg Hair Mask

Egg in your hair? It sounds weird, we know. Eggs work amazingly well as conditioners for our hair. They help restore shine and help in improving its texture. If the smell of eggs bothers you, don’t worry. Adding a few drops of lemon juice takes away the pungent smell and also keeps an oily scalp in check.

Here’s what you need:

• 1 egg with the yolk removed
• Lemon juice

What you need to do:

Take the egg white and add a few drops of lemon juice. Mix it well and add to your hair and scalp. Let it sit for 30 minutes to an hour and then wash and shampoo like usual.

3. Coconut Oil & Banana Hair Mask

Coconut oil has always been an age-old remedy for dry and brittle hair. Bananas have great hydrating qualities that nourish and protect our hair. Together they make a simple but powerful hair mask.

Here’s what you need:

• A ripe banana
• 2 tbsp of virgin coconut oil

What you need to do:

Blend a ripe banana and add 2 tbsp of coconut oil. Apply it to your hair and scalp and let it sit for at least 30 minutes before you shampoo your hair.

4. Aloe Vera Hair Mask

Aloe vera is a powerful plant whose gel has a countless number of benefits. It is especially great for flaky scalps, dandruff and irritation with its pH balancing and anti-fungal properties.

Here’s what you need:

• 1/2 cup organic aloe vera gel

What you need to do:

Take the aloe vera gel and apply it on your scalp and on your ends. Leave it on for an hour and wash and shampoo as usual.

5. Mayonnaise Hair Mask

Before you get grossed out, mayonnaise consists of eggs, vinegar, and oil that will give your hair incredible shine and luster. It also makes the simplest hair mask ever.

Here’s what you need:

• Full-fat mayonnaise (with egg)

What you need to do:

Take enough mayonnaise to cover the ends of your hair. Apply it on your hair the same way you would apply a conditioner. Let it sit in your hair for up to 30 minutes and shampoo as usual.

6. Green Tea Hair Mask

Green tea is rich in antioxidants and aids in reducing hair fall. It makes a great hair mask when combined with honey and coconut oil.

Here’s what you need:

• Green tea
• Coconut oil
• Honey

What you need to do:

Boil 2-3 tbsp of green tea in a cup of water. Add a tbsp of honey and virgin coconut oil and apply it to your scalp and hair. Leave it on for at least 30 minutes and then wash and shampoo as usual.
