The Coconut Oil Mask Your Tired Hair will LOVE.
Perhaps you have already heard of the benefits of coconut oil for hair.
Well this morning, I decided to give myself a gift, a little something just for me !
I named : THE revitalizing hair mask coconut oil based! This is not the kind of care that I do very often.
But there you have it: this time, I told myself that it was really time to try a new recipe for revitalize my tired hair.
So I took some time to find an effective trick to help my poor straight and tangled hair :-)
And I admit that at first, applying this mask is a little strange feeling… but I simply have to-do-re the result!
Let me warn you right away: trying this hair conditioner is adopt it for life !
And in addition, this recipe is super simple: only 3 small ingredients to mix, and voila! Look :
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons of organic coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon of organic jojoba oil
- 3 drops of essential oil of your choice (personally, I used peppermint essential oil and it smells SUPER good !!!)
How to do
1. Before you start, make sure all the ingredients are ambient temperature (especially coconut oil, which should have a thick and creamy texture).
2. Put two tablespoons of coconut oil in a bowl and start mixing. The heat generated by the movement will make the coconut oil smoother and more malleable.
3. Add a tablespoon of jojoba oil and continue mixing, until the jojoba oil is fully incorporated with coconut oil.
4. Add the 3 drops of essential oil of your choice.
5. Continue to mix the three ingredients until you get a mixture thick and oily.
How to use this mask
1. To use your conditioning mask, apply the mixture directly to your hair, starting from the hairline towards the ends.
2. take care of cover all the driest areas well of your hair.
3. Then, secure your hair with a clip.
4. Cover your hair with a shower cap, ideally a self-heating shower cap.
If you don't have a shower cap, that's fine. You can also use a plastic bag. But I warn you: it's much less glamorous ;-)
5. Keep your hair covered for 15-30 min.
For a better result, use a hair dryer to warm your hair during the first 5-10 min.
6. Once the treatment is finished, wash your hair with your usual shampoo and conditioner.
To make the most of all its benefits, do this treatment 1 time per week.
Homemade detangling with coconut oil
Wait, it's not over! :-)
Now that you've got your conditioning hair mask ready, try this homemade detangling treatment! You just need to add a little water!
And trust me, this care makes pure wonders on the hair.
Ingredients
- 1 volume of coconut oil revitalizing mask (easy, you just made it!)
- 10 volumes of water.
- 1 spray bottle
How to do
1. Put one part of the conditioning mask and ten parts of water in a spray bottle.
2. Shake vigorously.
3. After your shampoo, spray some of this conditioner on your wet hair, while combing it.
4. For an ideal result, I recommend using a comb with large teeth.
Results
FYI, after trying these two treatments and washing my hair, I didn't immediately notice a difference.
It was because my hair was still wet. After I dried them, I clearly saw a real difference.
Now my hair is softer, smoother and brighter. I can't help but run my fingers through my hair :-)
This treatment is therefore perfect for straightening hair and for frizzy hair. Obviously, this treatment is effective on any hair color (blond, brown and chestnut).
Precaution
This recipe calls for a few drops of essential oil. Therefore, do a test on your own skin before applying this treatment to your hair.
To do this, simply apply 1 to 2 drops of essential oil to a small area of your skin, in order toavoid an allergic reaction. This is a good precaution to take - especially if you have children :-)
