Solve The Problem Of Damaged Hair With These Homemade Hair Masks

Blow dryers, flat irons, color treatments - looking great can be hard on hair. The things you do to make your hair presentable can leave strands dull, dry, and brittle.

Hair masks can help restore nutrients, moisture, and proteins to lifeless, dry hair. You can relieve tired tresses by making up your own, at-home treatments using coconut or olive oil, eggs, or honey.

Here are 5 nutritious hair masks for damaged hair:

• Olive Oil and Avocado Hair Mask

Olive oil is chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids. These acids play an important role in hair growth, shine, and strength. They're also full of antioxidants, which help fight off hair-aging free radicals.

• Blend ingredients and apply in small sections to clean, damp hair. Cover hair with a shower cap for 30 to 60 minutes. Shampoo out and condition as usual.

• Egg, Mayonnaise, Olive Oil, and Honey Hair Mask

Mayo isn't just for sandwiches. Lipids in mayonnaise help hair absorb moisture and fatty acids, nourishing hair follicles. Olive oil and honey provide antioxidant and moisturizing benefits. And egg protein helps strengthen hair.

• Coconut Oil and Honey Hair Mask

This mask is especially good for those with fine to medium hair. Coconut oil helps protect the natural proteins in hair. This is especially beneficial to those who lack protein in their hair follicles. Vitamin E in the coconut oil provides antioxidant benefits. And lauric acid helps the emollient properties of honey penetrate deep into the hair shaft.

• Blend ingredients and apply in small sections to clean, damp hair. Cover hair with a shower cap for 30 to 60 minutes. Shampoo out, and condition.

• Apple Cider Vinegar, Lemon, and Honey Mask

If you have oily hair this one's for you. Lemon juice absorbs excess oil. The apple cider vinegar balances pH restoring proper acidity to the scalp. The apple cider vinegar also cleanses without stripping away too much oil. Honey seals in moisture, for lustrous strands.
