Monsoons and weather that is hot and humid are the worst season for your hair. They get frizzy, look damaged, and don't stay put as the way you unsuccessfully tried to style them.
Apart from keeping them clean and free of dirt, grime, and sweat, the most important thing you can and must do for your hair is regularly condition them. Every time you wash your hair as well as with a leave-in conditioner, especially during the rainy weather as that will help fight the frizz.
Here we are sharing with you some of the best and long time proven natural hair conditioners that will make your hair softer, smoother, and manageable.
Eggs
Eggs are one of the best natural hair conditioners. Added benefit, they are as cheap as it can get. Yolk (the yellow part) is essentially all fat, so separate and use that to condition your hair if they're dry and need moisture. Egg yolk will make them smoother and add some weight to make them look straighter.
Use egg whites with yoghurt to treat lifeless and thin hair. Egg whites are made up of proteins and so is yoghurt, just like your hair. If your hair is limp and dull, a boost of protein is just what it needs. Yoghurt is also a smoothening agent.
Surely, the smell of eggs on your hair will bother you. We suggest you give them a rinse with lemon juice diluted with water to get rid of the eggy smell. If you have dandruff, this is especially good for your hair. Let the lemon water rinse cleanse your scalp as well. If you don't have dandruff, only rinse your hair and not the scalp.
Now since the hair packs are semi-solid in nature, they are sure to drip a little. Wear a plastic shower cap to avoid making a mess, as well as keeping all the goodness of the hair pack intact. Let it stay on your hair for about 20 minutes before washing it off.
You should put this about once a week.
Honey
Another amazing natural hair conditioner is honey. Although you cant be too sure about the honey that is packaged and sold in the supermarkets. They usually mix colors and sugar to alter the appearance and taste. So be sure to buy organic honey from trusted sources.
Mix honey with a couple of tea spoons of almond or olive oil for maximum result. It's going to be sticky yes, so make sure you cover your hair after applying. Let it stay for 30 minutes then wash it off.
Honey and oil mix is really good to give your hair that coveted shine and luster.
Avocados and bananas Fruit packs are amazing for your skin as well as hair. Rich and creamy fruits like avocados and bananas work well for your hair because they give a boost to dull hair. Plus, your hair smells divine afterwards.
Mash and mix some avocados or bananas with honey and yoghurt. Apply it in your hair and leave it in for about 15 minutes. Make sure this mixture doesn't touch your scalp but coats each strand of hair evenly. Wash it off and instantly experience smooth and soft hair.
Shea butter
Just like cocoa butter for your skin, a pack made with shea butter and glycerin will nourish and moisturize dry hair like nothing else. Best used when your hair is extremely damaged, tangled, and need deep conditioning.
Mix Shea butter with glycerine in a ratio of 3:1 and apply it on your hair, leaving it on for 20 minutes. Wash it off and notice the gorgeous change in your tresses.
Beer rinse
You've heard a lot about how beer is great for your hair. There are reputed hair care brands that have come out with a range of beer shampoos as well. But there is a secret to use beer to condition your hair that makes all the difference.
First, you need to use flat beer and not a freshly opened bottle or can. Open the beer one night before and let it sit overnight to lose its bubbles. Use the flat beer for post shampoo rinse as a conditioner. Needless to say, give your regular good old conditioner a miss when you use beer.
Don't put it in the roots of your hair. Let the beer run down your tresses.
Leave-in conditioners
Leave-in conditioners are just as important to curb dryness and frizzy hair as post shampoo conditioners. Many believe that leave-in conditioners make your hair oily and limp looking but that's not true. You need to use the right product in right quantity and method.
Argan Oil : Moroccan argan oil is the latest new rage in hair care products. It's a miracle worker. Use 3-4 drops of argan oil on wet hair post washing your hair and spread it evenly along the length of your hair covering each strand. Your hair won't feel oily, rather it will make them shiny and manageable, and ready to be styled in any way you wish.
Apple cider Vinegar : Dilute apple cider vinegar with water in a ratio of 1:5 in a spray bottle. Spray 5-6 squirts over dry hair to instantly soothe down frizziness and give your hair a smooth texture. (Image: Thinkstock)
