In my extensive search for beauty tips and tricks over the past year, I have been discovering tonnes of new things that of course after trying every single one of them, I am happy to share the ones that actually work perfectly! However, I have been playing around with things you can find at home and of course PANTRY (the boo says I empty the house's food supply and grocery shop for my face and hair HA!) and have put together some really effective recipes for both hair and facial purposes!
Today, I must share my 4 part MIRACLE HAIR MASK (sitting here running my hands through my so-amazing-I-think-the hair-fairy-stopped-by-last-night hair!) and hope that you too can bask in the new found hair glory that's only an hour away! This mask is super excellent for dry, damaged and colour treated hair; or for a quick shine! Note that the order of application steps are crucial to the outcome of the mask, so relax and pamper yourself!
You will need:
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp castor oil
- 1 tbsp aloe vera gel (raw)
- 1 tsp honey
It's magic time:
- Start with dry hair (it does not matter whether it's clean, flat ironed or anything at all).
- Warm the coconut oil and distribute evenly throughout entire head.
- Massage castor oil with fingertips only at the roots (else you'll end up looking like a frizz ball, noooo!).
- Apply aloe vera gel starting from the roots and end off completely saturating the ends of your hair.
- Finally, coat as much of the hair as possible with the honey, which acts as a sealant to let the magic take place.
- If you're in a rush, opt for a shower cap or plastic wrap and keep the mask on for an hour and rinse with shampoo and warm water, and end off with a good conditioner and a cold rinse.
- However, if you want a deep conditioning, you can leave the mask on overnight, before your regular wash the next day.
Here's hoping you too can enjoy the wonderful, smooth, soft and heavenly hair that I am currently being distracted by!
... Love and beauty, Virmala
