Here are some tips and secrets to be the perfect diva that you can try at home,
without spending a fortune in the beauty parlors and wandering from beauty
clinics and saloons. Remember, they are not to be passed on to your friends:
* The hot tip to make your hair smell aromatic is to prepare your own hair
perfume at home. Mix 6 tablespoons of powdered charcoal, 5 tablespoons of
powdered myrrh and 1 tablespoon of powdered benzoin together and sieve it
thoroughly. Add 2-3 drops of bergamot oil and 2-3 drops of sandalwood oil, 1
tablespoon of potassium nitrate and mucilage of tragacanth to the mixture until
it acquires the consistency of a stiff paste. Heat the mixture over a water
bath. Shape it into little cones and dry them. Whenever you wash your hair,
light one of the cones while your hair is still damp and let them soak the smell
of the cone.
* A perfect way to get rid of dry, brittle, dull hair is to massage mayonnaise
into your hair thoroughly, starting from the roots to the hair ends. Then pile
your hair on top of your head and cover them fully with plastic food wrap. Wrap
the pre-heated towel around it and keep it on for 10 minutes. This will help in
deep-conditioning your hair. Now, replace the towel with another pre-heated
towel and leave it on for 10 minutes too. Now remove all the wraps and shampoo
your hair. This cholesterol treatment once a month for your hair is a boon that
will keep it soft and shiny.
* If you don't have time to shampoo your oily hair daily, you can try this out.
Pour some cornstarch into a dish and dip a clean, large blush brush into it.
Brush your scalp and hair roots thoroughly with the cornstarch and leave it on
for 10 minutes to soak off the oil. Then brush away the cornstarch flakes,
ridding your hair with all that unwanted greasiness.
* Make a mixture by adding ¼ cup of apple cider vinegar with 1 gallon of
distilled water and store it in the refrigerator. Once a fortnight, shampoo and
rinse your hair thoroughly and then pour 2 cups of the mixture over the scalp
and let it saturate the hair. Rinse your hair with cold water to get rid of all
the drab of hair styling products.
* A possible cure for your impossible dandruff is vinegar. Massage it into your
scalp and leave it to dry for a few minutes. Wash the hair thoroughly and repeat
the process daily. Dandruff usually disappears within a few days.
* The ancient Mayan women used avocados to keep their skin and hair healthy.
Here is their infallible hair mask that you can use too - Mix ½ ripe avocado, 1
tbsp. olive oil, ½ small banana and 1 egg yolk together and massage it into your
hair. Cover it with a plastic wrap and leave it on for one hour. Rinse the mask
with warm water and then shampoo your hair thoroughly.
* Say goodbye to your dandruff by dissolving 2 aspirins in your dandruff shampoo
before washing your hair with it. Moisturize your hair with a good conditioner
later.
* Powder your greasy hair by putting it a little at the root of your hair before
straying. For very oily hair, powder your hair heavily and keep it on for 15
minutes. Then wash the hair completely and condition lightly before making the
desired style.
* To bleach your hair naturally or just lighten their color, rub lemon juice on
them and wander out for a walk in natural sunlight.
