The Ultimate Beauty Guide

Studies have shown some foods are very beneficial when actually applied to our hair to help moisturize, revitalize, nourish, and even to grow faster. The next time you have a free Saturday night and you want to pamper your hair, consider these foods to use for homemade hair treatments.

Egg Protein Hair Mask


Most of us have heard of the benefit of applying egg to our hair. Eggs are actually fabulous for our hair because the whites are perfect for deep cleansing due to enzymes while the yolks provide deep moisturizing due to the fats and proteins.Simply whip one to two eggs, depending on the length of your hair, and apply to your hair. Cover and allow it to sit for approximately 20 minutes. Please make sure to rinse thoroughly in cold water to prevent the egg mixture from solidifying in your hair. Then, just shampoo as normal. This will leave hair deeply cleansed and deeply moisturized.

Avocado Homeade Hair Treatments


The natural oils and proteins of avocado are superb for nourishing hair and conditioning it to prevent dryness, frizz, and damage. Consider mixing avocado with mayonnaise and apply to hair as a mask to repair damage and to add moisture.

Coconut Oil Hair Treatments


The wonders of coconut oil never cease! This oil is heavy, which is great for penetrating deep into the hair shaft, but use it sparingly, especially if you have fine or thin hair. Take a tablespoon of coconut oil and apply to the ends of damp hair. If the oil is solid just warm in the microwave until liquid before applying. Got really dry hair? Keep the oil on overnight and shampoo out in the morning.

Moisturizing Honey Hair Treatment


Ahh, the smell of honey is absolutely sublime. Not only sweet for our lips, honey is actually an amazing moisturizer for our hair because it is a natural humectant. This means that it naturally holds in moisture.

Simply treat freshly shampooed and damp hair with approximately ½ cup of honey and allow to sit in your hair for approximately 20 minutes. If the honey is too thick to apply, just add a small amount of olive oil to thin it out. Then, rinse all honey from of your hair with warm water and enjoy the softness and healthiness of your hair!

Not only are healthy foods essential for us to eat so that our hair can thrive, many foods are also wonderful nourishing agents when actually applied to our hair. In addition to choosing nutritious foods in your diet, consider purchasing one of these items for a homemade hair treatment and be prepared to be amazed at how they can leave your hair deeply cleansed, nourished, and revitalized to be simply breathtaking!
