Hair Conditioners - Homemade Hair Conditioner
As I have explained earlier, hair reflects one's general health.
Tension. overwork and iUnesscan effect your hair. Short
hair is normally healthier than long hair. Breaking hair
or hair which split at the ends has usually been badly
treated. This may have been caused by over-exposure to
sun, over-perming,amateur bleaching, too frequentand inexpert
use of tints, rinses or other colourants or too mucb
hair lacquer.
Begin by finding the - cause of the bad condition of
your hair and correct it. A good hair conditioner available
in the market will help you enormously. You may easily
makea conditioner yourself. This should be used after
shampoo and before the final rinse. Leave it on for
five minutes, combing it through the hair repeatedly, then
rinseand set. The best conditioner is massage. All the
recipes given below will show better results if well massaged
into the scalp.
