Hair Spa At Home For Beautiful Hair

Hair spa at a salon is not only expensive,but also damages the hair in the long run due to usage of harsh chemicals and tools unless you visit a herbal/ayurvedic or a hair spa that uses 100% natural ingredients.

Hair spa can now be done at the comfort of your home,saves money and is rewarding in the long run as its chemical free!

Here are the 5 essential steps of a good hair spa treatment
1.Scalp massage Mix equal amount of coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil in a bowl and warm it.Gently massage the scalp using this oil with your finger tips for 15-20 mins.You could simply use any other luke warmed hair oil of your choice instead of the above combo.

2.Steam your scalp Dip a towel in hot water and squeeze the excess water out.Wrap the luke warmed towel around your head.Leave for 15-20 mins or overnight.This allows the oil to penetrate deep into the scalp.Follow steps 3,4 and 5 or steps 4 and 5.

3.Hair Pack Apply a hair pack according to your hair type,leave it on 20-30 mins and follow steps 4 and 5.

Here are a few home made hair packs.
Egg hair packs
Apply beaten egg yolk(s) for dry damaged hair.Apply beaten egg white(s) for oily hair.For normal hair use a mixture of whole egg(s),little honey, little coconut oil.You can also add a ripe banana pulp which is a hair softener.You can also use olive oil instead of coconut oil.To cut down the egg odor add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to your hair pack.Leave the pack on for 20 minutes.

Aloe vera hair pack treatment for oily scalp
Simply massage freshly extracted aloe vera gel into your scalp,leave it on for 30 mins.This also promotes hair growth.

Jasmine hair pack for nourishing dull,dry and frizzy strands
Grind 1 cup fresh jasmine flowers,1 cup curds,1 tbsp coconut oil into a smooth paste.Wear a shower cap or wrap your head with plastic film.Apply to unwashed hair and leave it on for 30 minutes.This hair pack results in smooth,sleek and glossy strands with regular use.

Mayonnaise split end and frizzy hair treatment
Work sufficient amount of mayonnaise according to your hair length and density (1/2 tsp is enough for slightly longer than shoulder length hair),with special attention to the ends and minimal attention to the scalp.Leave the mayonnaise on for 30 mins.Using too much will result in your hair becoming quite oily,needing several shampoos and rinses to get back to normal.

Anti dandruff hair pack
Mix freshly extracted aloe vera gel with your regular hair oil and massage into the scalp,leave for 30 mins.

Avocado banana hair pack for shiny hair
Mash 1 ripe avocado and 1 ripe banana into a pulp and mix with 2 tbsp coconut oil into a thick paste.Apply to scalp and hair.Leave for 30 minutes.

4.Head bath Use a mild shampoo (sulfate and paraben free shampoo) or a home made herbal shampoo such as reeta juice/shikakai juice and luke warm water for head bath.

5.Conditioning Soon after shampooing apply a natural conditioner to the hair and wash after 5 minutes.
