In today's tight financial situation, going to the salon for expensive hair care treatments can be a pain in the pocket.
I have a great idea of a homemade hair remedy for a shinier hair with consistent use.
The first home remedy for your hair is vinegar.
The use of vinegar as a rinse, combined with essential oils, for shiny hair was practiced since the Roman times.
The vinegar removes the residue in the hair shafts.
The residue in the hair shafts is the coat that causes the hair to appear dull.
Thus, removing the residue will give the hair more shine.
The good thing about vinegar is its tonic action.
Thus, it promotes better blood circulation in the scalp.
The vinegar will likewise close the hair cuticles.
Closing the hair cuticles will allow the hair to slide easily for smoother appearance.
This will result in fewer tangles.
Closing the hair cuticles keeps it in good shape.
When the layers of the cuticle are in good shape and knit together tightly, the light will reflect off better making the hair shine.
When you apply shampoo, the cuticle opens.
This result in the opening of cuticle layers, making it not knit together.
The hair will thus appear dull, rough, and brittle after shampooing.
This is where vinegar will be essential for a shinier hair.
I prefer to use apple cider vinegar for its better effect compared to ordinary vinegar.
Here is how to apply the vinegar.
After applying shampoo to your hair, rinse it thoroughly with half a cup of vinegar.
Let it penetrate the strands for at least 5 minutes.
Rinse with water to get rid of the excess acid.
Apply your favorite conditioner to eliminate the sour smell.
Just use the vinegar rinse every other day.
Your hair will be shinier within a week of consistent use.
