DIY Homemade Treatment For Healthy Hair

Helloooo my lovely friends! How have you been lately??? I am sure life is pretty good....well atleast mine is :P :P. Off late I have been experimenting with few DIY treatments and in the next few days I'm gonna share those that yield the best results. So today I am going to write about one such DIY treatment for hair.
    Basically this treatment is for dry hair, in case you have normal hair that is not dry then also you can do this treatment. But those of you who have oily scalp and hair I would suggest not to go for it.
   This one is super easy to make and you will find all those ingredients in your home (that's the best part of DIY treatment right?). You will need only 3 ingredients.

• AMLA OIL
• GLYCERINE
• ALMONDS

In this treatment I have used Dabur Amla Hair oil and Dabur Gulabari Glycerine.

 

Now coming to the ingredients........

• AMLA OIL : This strengthens hair and helps prevent greys. I have used Dabur Amla Oil. It has 50% amla oil and 40% mineral oil. Mineral oil helps in conditioning and smoothening the hair shaft.

 

• GLYCERINE : It adds moisture. It heals dry and brittle ends.
• ALMONDS : Strengthens hair.

In short, blending the goodness of all these ingredients you will get a hair rejuvenating treatment. When your hair looks dull and lifeless, you'll know its the time to use this one!

   Take a steel bowl. The base of this treatment is Amla Oil. So take Amla oil as per your hair length and thickness. To it add around 1-2 teaspoons of glycerine. Chop the almonds and add it too. Now put the bowl on low flame and heat it. You will notice that the almonds are getting fried in it. Let it simmer that way for a minute. Put off the flame and let it cool down a little. Pick out the almond pieces. Now that's the oil that you are going to apply on your hair. Apply it in your hair and make sure the oil is still warm. Leave it that way.

   I kept it overnight since my hair is too much dry and curly and frizzy. It's recommended that you keep it in your hair atleast for 2hrs minimum. Then shampoo and condition as usual.

   Okay, now a mild shampoo wont take out the oil so use a thick shampoo. I used Sunsilk Black.

This treatment left my hair soft and manageable. I have only used it once and have seen much less frizz. I'm planning to use this every alternate weekend. Don't use it every week as the glycerine might leave your hair heavy. 

After all of this, all I can say is this treatment is a must for them who have dull and dry hair. Try it out. I'm sure you'll love it. :) 

   

Keya Seth Shine & Silk Spa Shampoo Review

Hello lovely people, how are you'll doing???? Great I'm sure!!! Well, here I am with my second post. I am sure most of you haven't heard of this brand (or whatever) it is but its quite famous here in Kolkata. Keya Seth is into aromatherapy and she launched this shampoo quite a long time back now but I just got hold of this, the last week.

    I have extremely dull, dry hair. My hair feels soft when I touch it but is not at all manageable and frizz prone. So, I face bad hair day almost everyday. At one point of my life I totally gave up on it. At that time it looked like copper wires. Then after prolong oiling and few home-made hair packs, my hair is relatively softer. Oh! I forgot to tell. I even coloured my hair and that made it damaged too.
    For a long time I have been using Dove shampoo (the Intense Repair one) and its conditioner does absolute wonders to my hair. I was just coming back home one day, when I saw this product on the window of a shop, and I don't know what got into me, but I went ahead and brought it. This is how the bottle looks.

                          

The bottle is almost cone shaped. The shampoo inside is ocean green in colour. For the list of ingredients, check out the next picture :)

I am giving here again the list of the ingredients. It has blend of essential oils like lavender, rosemary and tea tree along with lemon and honey. It also has ritha, methi, tea leaf, milk protein extracts. Now lavender and rosemary are known for softening coarse hair. Tea tree oil controls oil secretion. Ritha and methi they clean hair. Milk protein softens the hair and makes it manageable. And we definitely know lemon and honey are good conditioners for hair. And all these are infused in a shampoo base that has no paraben and very less sulphur. Its a total herbal shampoo and extremely mild.

   Now coming back to myself, this is a miracle product for me. It did wonders to my hair in just one was. This shampoo doesn't lather up much (in case you have oiled your hair, don't use this shampoo as it won't remove oil totally and you would end up emptying the bottle). This product is reasonable too. And I never expected a shampoo to smell sooooo good like this one. It has a lemony+flowery kind of smell that lingers and trust me you'd love it. For people who can't bear strong fragrances, this one is a must try.
   What I totally love about this product is its ability to control frizz even upto 4 days. It made my hair manageable and gave it an unbelievable shine.

Okay, now, how to use it!
   You have to lather up your hair and keep it like that for 5 minutes and then wash it off.
You would instantly see your hair shining. By shining I mean MIRROR SHINE.

I would really recommend this shampoo to everyone who faces bad hair days. Trust me guys, THIS IS IT!

PROS :

•  Its reasonable. you get 200ml for Rs. 130. 
•  It won't create build up in your hair even if you use daily. The bottle says it should be used twice or thrice a week, but if you want you can use daily. But I gurantee you, that won't be required.
• It leaves your hair silky and shiny.
• Its all herbal, so no side-effects and definitely no harsh chemicals. Its gentle on your hair.

CONS :

•  Its not available everywhere in India.
• If you have oiled your hair, then sadly it won't remove the oil.
• It doesn't lather in your hair much. For some it may be a drawback but for me its perfectly okay! :)

Now, its RATING TIME...........!!!!!
   I would rate this product 4.7/5.

Trust me guys, its a must try. I have never been this GAGA over a product. This range also comes with a conditioner. I am thinking to buy that too. Would come back soon to you guys! Till then, take care and be happy :))
