Here are some great fully natural things you can use in your hair as you relax and treat yourself.
1. Avocado
Avocado has so many benefits for your hair and scalp! The fats are not only healthy for your insides, they’re good for your hair too. Vitamins including A, D, E, and biotin are in there. Biotin is great for your hair and can help it to grow! Beyond growth benefits they hydrate, strengthen, and add shine. We had an avocado tree in our backyard growing up and our dog would steal them off tree, eat the skin and fruit and spit out the seeds. while he did get a little chunky, his fur was AMAZING! So soft, silky, and shiny!
How to:
Smash up 1 avocado and mix it with a tablespoon of honey and a tablespoon of olive oil. Work it though damp haid and let it sit for 20-30 minutes before you rise it with warm water.
2. Honey
Honey is great for moisture and preventing different bacterial and fungal growths. If your hair is dry or damaged, it can help retain moisture and add shine and softness.
How to U:
Combine 2 tablespoons of honey with 1 tablespoon of olive oil or coconut oil. Apply to damp hair starting at the ends, if there is more, move your way up toward your scalp, and leave it for 15-20 minutes, rinse with warm water.
3. Aloe Vera
Scalps can get dry no matter where you live. But espeically id you live in a dry climate, especially in the winter months, you NEED this one. Akloe vera cools and soothes. It is full of vitamins A, C, E, and B12, these promote hair growth and treat and prevent dandruff.
How to:
Put fresh Aloe vera gel directly onto your scalp and leave it there for 20 minutes and wash it out.
