Your Guide to Using a Hair Mask at Home and Benefits
Who among us does not want to have radiant and luxurious curls? To achieve such beautiful hair can be thanks to regular care and constant work on them.
Now on the Internet, you can find many recipes for homemade masks for hair. Probably, there is no girl who at least once did not try to make such a mask on their own. And why not – because if all the ingredients are natural, the harm will not be, but the question – is there really a benefit from such masks? Let’s work it out together.
Of course, natural hair masks are better than the express products offered to us by the mass market. Chemistry and parabens with silicones for the first time can perform their task, of course. Give shine, create visible volume. But most often, it is temporary effects, after which there is a reckoning for inattention to your own hair.
Hair loss, split tips, dryness, brittleness, lifeless appearance – all this easily returns and can add new problems: dander, scalp irritation, itching, and allergies.
So, to help come recipes from the Internet, advice girlfriends, and sometimes your own imagination.
Which home masks are the most popular?
Nutritional hair masks at home can certainly be made, but are they really effective? After all, the Internet will tolerate everything – and untested recipes, incorrect proportions, and illiterately selected ingredients.
Masks against hair loss at home are prepared most often based on onions, yolk, honey, and black bread. By themselves, these natural products, of course, are useful. But after such masks, the result you do not guarantee, but the specific smell of onions, with which the shampoo will not be able to cope – just will be provided. And reading reviews of those who try such masks, often you can stumble upon the negative – and the hair becomes confused, and they are difficult to comb, and it is difficult to wash off the mask with shampoo.
Black bread, for example, thanks to the group of vitamins B for hair, is useful – there is no dispute. But to affect, its concentration must be very high. Is it worth spending so much effort to prepare such masks, and how long to wait for the real result?
The alternative is a series of Natura Siberica masks, which contain all the most useful properties of natural ingredients. Experts have long taken care to give our hair the right nutrition and hydration. A high concentration of beneficial vitamins will make the effect faster and more tangible than homemade masks.
Masks for hair density at home
Such ingredients will necessarily have olive oil, turnip oil, castor oil, red pepper, aloe juice, or sea salt. Perhaps, by themselves, all the ingredients are safe and not harmful. But red pepper and sea salt in the wrong proportions can really damage the scalp, cause itching and unpleasant sensations.
A mask with mustard for hair growth, in general, can cause a serious burn. After all, “specialists” advise wrapping the head with cellophane film and tolerating the effect of “baking.”
Such “treatment” is no longer suitable. After such procedures, hair can begin to fall out because it is not difficult to damage bulbous hair. Even worse – beer masks for hair growth. Unfortunately, the beer, which is made in Russia and inside it is not necessary to use, and let alone put on the hair – and even more so we would not advise. You can’t talk about the smell from such a mask.
The alternative is bio-masks with well-chosen ingredients that will not harm hair, and the benefits will certainly give more. In addition to the useful sea salt, the photonic bio-mask contains useful extracts of herbs. Aroma Jazz’s oily hair extract contains the right amount of red pepper and mustard and will not cause a burn, and coconut oil and herbal extracts will absorb well and nourish the hair and scalp. The extract of beer yeast in the Organic People will strengthen the hair and promote its growth, and the extract of hop cones will restore the structure.
Egg mask
An egg mask for hair is undoubtedly useful. After all, the egg contains protein, lecithin, and many vitamins necessary for hair. But such a mask is tough to wash off the hair, and from hot water, eggs can curl up, and small lumps when drying such a mask remain on the hair and terribly confused, not allowing to comb normally. And to walk with such a mask on his head is not very pleasant, admit it.
Is it necessary to make your hair suffer if there are beautiful ready-made bio-masks, which in their composition, among other things, contain useful oils and vitamin complexes, smell nice, and easily washed off?
Masks on mayonnaise
Another recent panacea – hair masks on mayonnaise. But it’s not serious at all. Shop mayonnaise contains preservatives, amplifiers, emulsifiers, and vinegar. What will be the benefit of hair from such composition? In the role of other ingredients are most often powders identical to natural. It is better to eat a little salad with mayonnaise. It, after all, is designed for this purpose.
Recently, all the sites with hair care tip gelatinous hair masks. This natural alternative to salon lamination gained popularity quite rapidly. Indeed, gelatin is a natural protein product that has collagen, so necessary for our hair. But, unfortunately, the improperly cooked and too thick gelatin mask can lead to the fact that the hair, over time, will become rigid and dim. There will l be a feeling of fatness and stale hair. Such a mask can aggravate the hair and cause broken tips and sometimes even hair loss.
Alternative – natural hair masks with keratin and collagen
The effect of lamination will give serum and mask from Skinlite. High collagen content is in black caviar, based on how the masks Natura Siberica and Caviar are developed.
Home care problems
Of course, we will not argue that positive reviews about home masks can be found a lot. But to achieve the effect, you need to carefully check the recipes, spend a lot of time on their preparation and wait a long time for the result. In addition, you will have to face problems such as bad smell, matted hair, and irritation of the scalp. Well-prepared masks may well be generally strengthening, but they, frankly, do not fit for hair treatment.
Ready-made hair masks better than homemade?
The advertised masks offered to us by the mass market often contain silicones, which have only a temporary visible effect, and with regular use, lead only to a negative result. And useful extracts, if they are at all, are at the end of the composition, and therefore, there – as drops in the sea. But when it comes to natural and organic cosmetics, such masks are undoubtedly the best solution for hair care.
So, the arguments for ready-made natural masks.
- A high concentration of nutrients and extracts that cannot be achieved at home;
- The ingredients used in such masks are more expensive to buy separately, and some are difficult to find;
- All prescriptions and technologies undergo clinical trials and are certified with international quality certificates;
- Masks are easily washed off the hair, do not cause confusion, irritation, and allergies;
- No need to waste time cooking on dubious recipes from the Internet;
- A noticeable effect of regular use – hair looks well-groomed and healthy;
- Experts have chosen the ideal components and proportions for this or that mask, which means that the result will be first-class.
You are unlikely to mix the northern powder, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and vitamins A, C, E, and PP in your own kitchen. And not always at hand will be wild juniper, Indian jasmine, or Greek figs.
Bio-masks, serums, and intensive care programs do not contain carcinogens, preservatives, or allergens, only environmentally friendly concentrates, vitamins, trace elements, and beneficial acids.
Natural hair masks, which you can find on our website, will be the best helpers to achieve the desired shine, volume, and health. Systematic use of ready-made natural masks works wonders even with the most lifeless and dry hair.
Such masks really restore the damaged structure of hair, nourish the scalp, give silkiness, shine, and volume, and protect the hair from external aggressive sources.
Of course, the choice is yours – to prepare masks yourself or trust experts-beauticians. We hope that our arguments will help to determine the choice.
