Dry hair does not produce much sebum and consequently tends
to be coarse and brittle - a condition that worsens with age. Sun, sea water,
chemical dyes and perms cause further damage and result in split ends. Trimming
the damaged hair is sometimes the only remedy.
But hair need not become too dry. With the right
conditioning treatment, even dry, straw-like hair can become manageable again.
Apply repair treatments regularly to tone your hair and
prevent the strands from becoming brittle and tangled. The weaker the hair, the
more important this is.
You can make your own natural products based on traditional
recipes, of which the following one is shared with you:
Egg Shampoo
This shampoo will protect dry hair. Products containing eggs
are most effective when used immediately.
Ingredients
1 egg white
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon honey
1 tablespoon olive oil
Juice of one lemon
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed Bulbine juice
Whisk the egg white and fold in the yolks. Stir in the
honey, olive oil, lemon juice and Bulbine juice.
Massage the shampoo into the scalp and thoroughly coat the
hair. Leave for a few minutes and rinse the hair, using plenty of water until
all the shampoo has gone.
