Apply this aloe serum over your hair and scalp, also in the split ends. Leave on for an hour and wash off with your regular shampoo. Shiny soft hair is all yours! :) When followed weekly, this homemade aloe hair serum does miracles to your hair.

CONDITIONING

Do you all know ? Conditioning is the main process which moisturizes hair and gives the shine. Every time we shampoo our hair, our hair loses moisture and becomes dry. To prevent this, use a good branded conditioner. Using conditioner every time after shampooing makes your hair really really soft as it moisturizes. So, never ever forget to condition if you want soft shiny hair. I use Dove, Garnier and L'Oreal conditioners :) They're quite good!

I have already mentioned the OILING PROCESS in my previous post, It also moisturizes your hair well and strengthens it from deeper to give you a wonderful, beautiful and mainly SHINY SOFT hair! Click HERE to read it!

Hope this post will be useful to you all. Leave your comments! Have a nice time! :)

How to Make Your Hair Wash Cream at Home - Photo Tutorial

As soon as summer begins, our hair starts getting damaged by the harmful UV rays and heat. Due to this, daily hair wash becomes necessary in every person's hair care routine. We face split ends, oiliness, dandruff, sweating and many other hair ailments due to regular shampooing. Today, I am going to show you the steps of making your own hair wash cream at home easily. In this recipe, shika is used as a base. Shika is a natural made hair wash powder, widely used in India. You can make your own at home or get a ready made pack from your nearest shop. This hair wash cream is suitable for all hair types, however a little alteration would be needed to make it suit your hair. Usage of this hair cream instead of your regular shampoo not only acts as a natural side effect free hair cleaner, but also adds a perfect shine and smoothness to your hair. Let us move on to the recipe now.

Things you will need:

1. Shika Powder - 2 teaspoons
2. Curd - Required
3. Hair oil - 3 drops

Instructions

Step 1

Take a small clean bowl and add 2 teaspoons of  homemade or store bought shika powder into it. I am using the Meera herbal hair wash powder here.

Step 2

Pour required curd to the shika powder. Curd acts as a natural hair conditioner and adds shine to dull hair, hence you can skip your conditioner.

Step 3

Blend well to form a thick paste.

Step 4

Now add 3 drops of any light hair oil to this paste for a nourishing effect on your hair. Make sure to avoid thick oils like castor oil and go for thin filtered oils, because they may weigh down your hair. I have used a thin hair oil from Garnier. If your hair type is extremely oily, then skip this step and add few drops of lemon juice to the cream.

Step  5

Now mix all the ingredients well and keep the bowl inside your refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes. This process allows the ingredients to mix well together and gives a smooth soaked shika hair cream.

That's all. Your homemade hair wash cream is ready for use now. You can apply it on your wet hair soon after taking out from the refrigerator for a cooling and relaxing effect. This hair wash cream cools down your body, refreshes your eyes and prevents summer acne. However, allow it to warm in room temperature before using if you have cold body type.

The texture of the cream should be normal to runny for a perfect application. This doesn't lather much as your shampoo but thoroughly cleanses out all the dirt and oiliness. Plenty of water should be used to wash out the cream thoroughly. Make sure to choose a fine shika powder to avoid residues.

Texture of the Homemade Hair Wash Cream

 I have been using this homemade hair wash for ages and it gives great results on my hair every time. My hair turns visibly shinier and smoother after every usage. I can also feel my hair growth faster than before as there is less hair loss. This above preparation is made for my sister and I will be washing my hair tomorrow with this homemade hair wash cream.

Best Home Treatment for Hair Loss

Many of our visitors asked me to write a post which gives natural and herbal remedies for thinning and falling hair. Hair loss is caused when your hair strands get weak and fall out. There are many causes for hair loss such as..

• Vitamin deficiency
• Loss of good night sleep
• Mental stress
• Improper maintenance
• Hard water hair wash
• Particular medicines
• Pollution and dust

There are also other reasons like harsh combing, avoiding hair oils which nourishes hair which prevents dryness and breakage and usage of chemical cosmetics such as hair straighteners and hair sprays.

So, what can we do to promote healthy hair growth and prevent further hair loss or damage? Do we need to search for branded hair oils or run behind chemical lotions which claims faster hair growth? Do you think they will work? There is a great risk of losing your hair by using scented chemical hair products and cosmetics.

The best thing to do in your home to prevent hair loss and promote regrowth of hair is few natural and organic treatments, which causes no side effects. They keep your hair nourished and prevents hair loss in a very natural way, thus your hair grows healthier, softer and stronger. Let me explain in this post about a Castor oil Hot oil massage home treatment which works very effectively in preventing hair loss.

Castor oil is a vegetable oil which is extracted from the Castor bean. It's very thick in consistency and has a bit uncomfortable smell, but yet it acts as a best natural hair tonic which has lots and lots of hair repairing and nourishing properties. Get pure Castor oil from your nearest grocery shop and store it in a cool dry place.

USES OF CASTOR OIL IN HAIRCARE

• Nourishes hair and prevents dryness.
• Makes your hair says goodbye to split ends :))
• It's antioxidants prevents scalp infection which causes hair fall.
• Improves blood circulation in your scalp and strengthens hair roots.
• Promotes faster hair growth that you can visibly see the difference.
• Eliminates dandruff and leaves hair silky soft for sure :D
• Thickens hair and makes it shinier with regular use.

HOT OIL MASSAGE WITH CASTOR OIL

• Take required Castor oil in a small bowl.
• Extract oil from 2 Vitamin E capsules and mix with the Castor oil (I use Evion Vitamin E capsules :) )
• Blend this oil mixture well and heat it.
• After the oil mixture warms down, apply it over your hair and scalp covering the entire hair surface in bearable heat.
• Use finger tips and palms to massage your scalp gently. Rub the oil gently over split ends too.
• Now wear a plastic cap over your head and cover it up with a clean towel and leave the oil to penetrate and work on your hair for at least 30 minutes. You can also leave this oil overnight on your hair for better results :)
• After that, rinse out your hair completely with plenty of fresh water and your regular shampoo without any oil residue.
• Silky soft and smooth hair which even beats peacock feather is all yours! :D Believe me, I have tried it. Following this hair care routine at least once in a week gives best results within 5 uses, as I listed in the uses of Castor oil above.

NOTE : You can also add some grape seed, almond or any other essential oil with this oil mixture to reduce the thickness of the Castor oil and a little bit uncomfortable smell :P.

Do you still think about the parlor products and chemical lotions to reduce hair loss? :D I hope you all would have started loving Castor oil which gives you a beautiful hair after reading this post! :) Good luck. Leave your comments!

Hair Care Regime for Soft and Strong Hair

Beautiful hair beautifies a person. Maintaining your hair soft, supple and shiny is not a hardest thing. A few simple tips make a good hair care regimen which protects and develops the beauty of your hair. Till the age of 12, I never cared about my hair. It was very long that it was about to touch my knees. Because of improper maintenance and diet my hair got dry and started appearing like brush. Seeing this my mom took me to the parlor and had cut my long hair.. :( Now I am 16 and having a super supple hair because of my good maintenance. Most of my friends are jealous of my soft hair :) Today I am going to share with you, my simple hair care regimen which made me get my lovely hair.

1. OILING... OILING... OILING is the first and best tip for healthy hair.

BENEFITS OF OILING HAIR

a) Nourishes hair and scalp by moisturizing it.

b) Improves blood circulation in the scalp and makes hair roots strong.

c) Cool downs the body and relax us from stress.

d) Cures dandruff and adds shine to hair.
e) Strengthens weak and brittle hair

  I oil my hair twice a week two hours before washing my hair because I don't like to leave the oil in my hair. You can leave the oil overnight if you are comfortable with it. Coconut oil, Olive oil and other good branded oil works best on hair. We can make our own hair oil at home which provides great hair growth and softness.

HOMEMADE HAIR OIL

Ingredients

1. Amla powder (Gooseberry)

2. Tulsi podwder ( Holy basil)

3. Coconut or Castor oil

Method

• Mix the ingredients with oil and heat it. Filter the oil and store it in a clean bottle and keep it in a clean, dry place.
• Take a little amount of oil and heat it whenever needed. Massage your hair and scalp with this hot oil and leave for a while before washing. By this hot oil massage, the oil penetrates deeper into the scalp and nourishes it well.

2. The second thing I have done to get my healthy hair is CONDITIONING..!! Yes. Conditioning my hair does the trick. After you shampoo  your hair, it loses the moisture, natural oils and become dry, which easily leads into breakage of hair. Dry and thin hair breaks easily, so you have to condition your hair to nourish it and prevent hair breakage. You can buy any branded conditioner like Dove, L'Oreal Paris or Garnier. I have tried these three products and three of them were really good. If you don't want to buy, you can make your own conditioner at home. It is very easy and natural. Here's how..

Homemade Hair Conditioner

Mix Curd with lemon juice and apply over your hair and scalp after shampooing. Leave for 5 minutes and rinse thoroughly with plenty of clean water without leaving any residue. (This surely doesn't make your hair smells odd. I have tried it). By using this conditioner your hair shines like silk and you would love to run your fingers through your soft hair all the time.

3. VITAMINS AND MINERALS

Inner health is more important than the outer maintenance for strong and supple healthy hair. I take a folic acid pill, Vitamin b3 pill and Vitamin A, C, E pills everyday to maintain good hair health. If you're not lazy like me, you can get these vitamins by natural food intake like Egg, milk, greens and vegetables.

That's all friends.. Follow these 3 procedures without fail to have really HEALTHY, SUPER SOFT, DANDRUFF FREE, STRONG and LONG HAIR :). Within a week, you will start to see astonishing results.
