How to Achieve Smooth and Shiny Hair


They say that your hair is your crowning glory. Many people are more inclined to care for their skin but sometimes forget about their hair. We think that shampooing and conditioning it every so often is just enough. But there are ways to achieve even better looking hair with little effort.

  • For brittle and dull hair, all you need to do is massage olive or coconut oil onto your roots for 15 minutes. When you are done, leave the oil in your hair for about an hour. These oils make your hair shiny and strong.
  • You may employ the first method and then wrap a warm towel on your head. Leave the towel on your hair for about five to 10 minutes.
  • If you are going to use coconut oil for your hair treatment, you can preheat it in a pan. Get a vitamin E capsule and open it. Mix the coconut oil and the Vitamin E together. Put this mixture on your hair and leave it on for about 20 minutes. Vitamin E is good for your hair.

        • If ever you have a dandruff problem, mix together yogurt, two teaspoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice and two teaspoon of honey. Apply this mixture to your hair and scalp and leave it on for 15 minutes. After a one-quarter hour, you can rinse your hair with shampoo. This will take care of your dandruff problem.
        • You can also treat your hair with cooled tea water. This is very good for conditioning your hair.
        • Get a banana and mash it. Apply it to your hair and leave it on for about 30 minutes. Afterwards, rinse your hair and shampoo it. Bananas can make your hair twice as healthy, and the fruit is a great source of magnesium.
        • Mix together two egg yolks and a teaspoon of lemon juice, then beat the mixture until everything is well blended. Apply the mixture to your scalp and leave it on for 20 minutes. Then wash your hair with shampoo. This may smell, but it is one of the best ways to increase volume and achieve that healthy shine for your hair. This method is highly recommended.
        • For instant shiny hair, you can apply mayonnaise directly to your hair. Massage it gently and leave the mayonnaise on for about 15 minutes. Afterwards, rinse your hair and shampoo it. Make sure you have thoroughly rinsed it; otherwise, it may become extra greasy. This method is the best if you want to achieve instantly shiny hair.

                  Tips and Warning

                  • Massage gently to avoid hair breakage.
                  • Do a second wash if you are using the egg and mayonnaise treatment to completely remove any kind of smell.
