How to do a hair spa at home
There should be one beauty regime that you could do yourself at home and at the same time feel pampered like you feel at your favorite salon. How about a relaxing and cost effective hair spa at home? Hair spa helps you retain the natural moisture present in your hair and nourishes your scalp from within, softening the hair and strengthening the follicles.
To pamper yourself with a relaxing hair spa, follow the steps below:
• Grease your hair with some essential hair oil: Take a good amount of olive oil or coconut oil in your palm and massage your scalp gently. You could also mix a few drops of lemon in the oil if you are suffering from dandruff. Lemon helps you get rid of dandruff or any kind of fungal infection present on your scalp. Apply this oil & lemon mixture on your scalp area by putting light pressure over your scalp and massaging gently. Slide down the hair length to apply the oil evenly.
• Steam and let the pores absorb enough oil within: Take warm water and dip cotton or a towel into it. Squeeze excess water and wrap the wet towel on your head. Don’t tighten the cloth too much as it might lead to headache. In case the towel cools down you could repeat this procedure twice/thrice. Keep the towel on for about 15 minutes.
• Wash your hair with a nourishing shampoo: Once your hair has absorbed the essential oils, wash off the oil by using a mild shampoo, followed by a conditioner. Do not forget to condition your hair. Conditioner helps lock the hair moisture and thus protects your hair from getting frizzy and dry.
• Apply a hair mask to seal the nourishment and hair protein: Take a bowl and mix two eggs with some honey and mashed bananas. Apply this mask all over your hair and leave it for about 20 minutes. Then, again rinse your hair using a mild shampoo, followed by conditioner.
Follow this hair spa routine for about 3 months to get salon-like hair and secure natural proteins and vitamins present in the hair. Regular hair spa also helps you fight hair damages caused by pollution and UV rays. For better results, always apply good hair serum whenever you step out of your house.
