Homemade Recipes for Hair Care
There is no need to spend a lot of money to have that beautiful, shiny, healthy head of hair. There are hair care solutions that you can make at home, with ingredients that can be found right in your kitchen and garden. Here are a few:
Olive oil - Olive oil is not only a good moisturizer for the skin, it is also good for the hair. To use as a hair tonic, apply olive oil to your hair and scalp. Let it stay for approximately thirty minutes and rinse with lukewarm water. If you are experiencing hair loss, olive oil can be a good remedy. You need to massage the oil on your scalp every evening and let it stay overnight. Although this could be quite inconvenient, it will be worth the effort when you start to observe new hair growing on your scalp.
Aloe Vera and Honey: Aloe vera is widely known to possess properties that thicken hair. When mixed with honey, the benefit to the hair is doubled because of the ability of honey to hold on to water molecules. This means that hair is more moisturized when applied with honey. This solution is made by mixing the flesh of the aloe leaf with honey and applying it to the scalp for twenty minutes.
Onion: Onion is an ingredient which we do not usually associate with hair care but because it contains sulfur, it is good for the hair and nails. Moreover, it has antifungal properties that prevent or fight against infections in the scalp. For healthier hair, chop an onion and add to your shampoo. Let this mixture stand for fifteen days and use the shampoo as you normally have done. Regular use of this solution will give your hair a brilliant shine. You can also mix in aloe to make the shampoo a more effective hair grower.

If you make this a daily habit, you will notice in a few weeks' time that your hair is longer and stronger.
