The way your hair looks can affect your mood and confidence. Having healthy hair is also important to avoid dandruff and hair loss.
There are many kinds of shampoos, conditioners and other hair care products to choose from. You can also go to the salon and pamper your hair with treatment. However, these products and treatments may be harmful to your hair and to the environment. Also, they can be expensive and time-consuming.
Imagine the time and money you can save if you can do a hair treatment by yourself at home. You can also be sure that the ingredients you use for your hair are all-natural. A simple hair treatment you can do at home is a hair mask. A hair mask is a deep conditioning treatment that helps to heal damaged hair. With frequent styling, coloring and staying under the sun, your hair becomes dry and damaged. At this point, the hair needs intense moisturizing and conditioning with the help of a hair mask. It is pretty simple to create your own hair mask. The most important part of a hair mask is the oil that you will use.
Argan oil is popularly used as a hair treatment. It is extracted from the kernels of the Moroccan argan tree. Also known as “liquid gold,” argan oil contains large amounts of vitamin E and fatty acids that make it an effective moisturizer, conditioner, and softener for skin and hair.
As a versatile oil, argan has many benefits when used on hair. It moisturizes the scalp to prevent dryness and dandruff. Argan oil also promotes hair growth. It can treat split ends and revitalize damaged hair.
Using argan oil as a hair mask maximizes its effects on hair. Argan oil can deeply condition, hydrate and restore your hair. More nutrients is absorbed by the hair and end up extra smooth, sleek and voluminous. This treatment is easy to do at home. Here’s how you should use argan oil as a hair mask.
1. Apply argan oil to your hair. The amount would depend on the length of your hair. For example, if you have medium-length hair, apply 6 to 8 drops of argan oil to saturate your hair from roots to ends. 2. Use your fingers to comb through your hair and distribute the oil evenly to every part. 3. Cover your head with a shower cap. The shower cap retains heat which is good for deeply conditioning your hair. The oil will also be absorbed deeper into the follicle as the heat activates the oil. 4. For best results, let the hair mask sit overnight. If you are in a hurry, leave it on for at least 30 minutes. However, for intense conditioning, sleep with the shower cap over your head. 5. Remove the excess oil from your hair by using shampoo and conditioner as you normally would in the shower. Then, rinse your hair thoroughly.Treating your hair with argan oil hair mask should be a part of your hair care routine. You can repeat this treatment once a week to replenish and revitalize your hair. With regular use, argan oil can help you have thicker, stronger and softer hair.
