It can be difficult to manage damaged hair. There are many reasons why people have bad days with their hair, and identifying the factors causing this may help solve the problem. Weather usually causes keratin damage in hair strands in humid climates. As creatine enlargement occurs, which may cause hair to frizz. During the winter months when dry outdoor air is combined with indoor dry heating, this causes constant problems as frizzy curls become difficult to style. Braiding or bun styling can solve the problem temporarily, but this is not a permanent solution.

Hair may become difficult to style with more hair products, such as exposure to large amounts of hairspray or mousse. Routine bleaching or dyeing of hair may also lose moisture. Trying to treat dryness by adding the wrong oils or too much conditioner has the opposite effects: Hair can look dirty or greasy, as the products clump and cling to curls. Besides, the compounds are usually resistant to shampoo.

Stress is another thing that we take into consideration. Stress results in hormones and other chemical reactions that affect hair. Also, the monthly production of estrogen in women increases oil production, which can make hair look dull, weak and lifeless.

However, there are some ways to help keep your hair healthy. From eating better food to treating hair with a homemade mask, a little nourishment from the right ingredients can add life and shine to your hair.

Nutritional solutions for damaged hair

Poor eating habits contribute to difficult hair loss and loss of health over time. Eggs, curd, bananas, guava and spinach are all nutrient-rich foods that help stimulate the hair growth cycle and keep curls strong and lustrous. The proper nutrition system strengthens the outer layer of the hair, making it shiny and healthy looking. Consider making changes to your diet now. However, it may take up to 3-6 weeks for you to see results. Remember, hair grows about half an inch per month. The hair is constantly renewed.

Some types of hair have their own problems that need more than just a change in diet to address them.

Natural curly hair treatment

The composition of the hair varies according to its surface type or the outer layer of different hair types. Under a microscope, the outer layer of hair appears like layers arranged on top of each strand of hair. When all the layers are flat, the hair looks silky and smooth. But in curly hair, the layers are uneven, and this causes it to feel rough, but it looks thicker. A homemade mask for curly hair can improve the overall texture of your hair, leave you feeling hydrated, and provide the correct nutrients.

Curly hair mask

Ingredients:

  • An egg
  • Two tablespoons of mayonnaise
  • Tablespoon olive oil Bakr
  • A tablespoon of pure honey

Double the amount for long hair.

How to prepare:

  1. Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix or put them in a blender and mash.
  2. Mix it well.
  3. Wet your hair and apply the mask all over it evenly.
  4. Cover your hair with plastic wrap or a shower cap for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Wash your hair with shampoo.

Use the mask weekly if needed.

Symptoms of damaged hair

Brittle, dry, and excessive porosity and coarse braids are visible signs of damaged hair. Problems arise when strands of hair become damaged or too long. Smoothing the layers of braids protects hair from damage and improves its appearance.

Under normal circumstances, hair has the ability to stretch up to 150% more than its normal length without breaking. Loss of elasticity appears as broken ends or many short hairs. Analyze the problem by looking at the hairbrush. If the hair is full length, then it has just fallen off to make way for new hair to grow. But if the hairs are shorter, breakage may be the cause. Other signs of hair damage include feeling soggy when wet, not absorbing water, or not maintaining color. Treating hair regularly with a suitable mask may help avoid and treat many of the symptoms.

  • One egg yolk
  • Two tablespoons of coconut oil
  • A tablespoon of pure honey

  2. Wet your hair.
  3. Apply the mask to all hair with your fingertips.

  5. Wash it with shampoo.
  6. Reapply the mask weekly as needed.

Treat frizzy hair with homemade products

The hair becomes frizzy due to the higher outer layers of the curls. As a result, the hair appears dry and frizzy and does not comb well. Curly (natural) hair tends to curl more easily due to moisture loss. But loose hair can get frizzy for the same reason. Curly hair is naturally drier, and this makes it more prone to frizz. Also, brushing with curly hair makes curls rise and cause frizz.

Not many people are aware that there are three types of wrinkles. Surface frizz occurs on the visible outermost layer of the hair. The wrinkle aura occurs around the crown area only. Frizz in (natural) curls of hair eliminates the look of fine frizz, as the problem extends all over the curl. Try this homemade mask recipe specifically designed to reduce all three types of wrinkles.

  • One banana, mashed or chopped

  2. Wet your hair.
  3. Apply the mask all over the hair.

  5. Wash it with shampoo.
  6. Use the mask weekly as needed.

Problems specific to natural hair

Natural hair tends to be drier and curls more flat. The susceptibility to dryness makes natural hair more susceptible to breakage. When you notice hair becoming brittle, you should avoid ironing, dyes, and straighteners that make the problem more complicated. Be careful when stretching your hair after braiding or curling it, and avoid making the style too tight. These hairstyles destroy fragile hair. Keep your hair hydrated and nourished by using a mask designed for natural hair.

  • Half a mashed avocado
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • Two tablespoons of coconut oil
  • A tablespoon of pure honey

  1. Put the ingredients in a blender and mash or beat in a bowl until well combined.
  2. Wet your hair well.
  3. Apply the mask to the hair and scalp.
  4. Cover your hair and let the mask absorb for 30 minutes.
  5. Wash it with shampoo.  
  6. Use a strong conditioner.
  7. Re-use the mask weekly.

Home solutions for oily hair

The sebaceous glands secrete sebum, a naturally occurring wax-like substance that protects the hair shaft. For various reasons, the glands may secrete a lot of sebum, which causes the hair to become oily. People with fine hair tend to have thicker hair. And thicker hair means more sebaceous glands and more oil production. Hormonal problems can stimulate the glands to overproduce. This occurs especially during puberty, menstrual periods and pregnancy. There are some other factors, which include genetics and the frequent use of wrong hair care products.

Cases of greasy hair also differ. Some suffer from greasy hair from the roots to the tips . Others may notice that the hair is more oily at the scalp and roots, while the legs and ends remain dry. Special products containing natural ingredients or homemade hair masks can treat this problem.

  4. Cover your hair and leave the mask on for 30 minutes.
  5. Wash it well.
  6. Wash it with shampoo.  
  7. Reapply the mask weekly as needed.
