Beauty requires sacrifice. This faded phrase can be applied to many situations. But the most offensive thing is when we women, in order to defeat a man, have to sacrifice precisely what causes incredible delight in their eyes. It is a smooth silk of flowing hair.
It is their health that we sacrifice, drying out locks with a hairdryer, ironing and curling iron, wishing to create an attractive hairstyle. Paradox. To attract the attention of men, we deliberately destroy what they especially like. What to do? How to care for your hair so that it remains attractive and at the same time does not lose a healthy shine and natural structure?
We refuse the hair dryer
One of the worst enemies of the hair structure is a hair dryer. Some advanced models allow the use of a stream of cold air if desired, which significantly spares the hair structure. However, it is best to dry your hair naturally. With regular use of the hair dryer, hair loses its natural shine. Moreover, after using this household appliance, styling is required. The fact is that under the influence of an air stream, the hair flakes rise, giving additional shaggy hair. As a result, the already "exhausted" hair has to be subjected to ruthless heat treatment by ironing. At the same time, the restored external gloss of the strands only veils the painful condition of the hair.
Beautiful hair - clean hair
Regular washing gives the hair lightness and smoothness. It is a misconception that frequent washing spoils the hair structure. They are not spoiled by the washing process itself, but by the means that we use. Only properly selected shampoo can guarantee proper cleanliness. Information for skeptics: perhaps shampoo does not restore the structure of the hair, but it can easily spoil. Therefore, it is advisable to choose a means for washing the head, focusing on the condition of the skin and hair. In addition, do not neglect the air conditioning. Of course, a hair rinse is not a healing elixir. Nevertheless, special additives in its composition can smooth the hair cuticle, returning smoothness and shine to them after shampooing.
How to care for hair at home
The most effective means to restore the health of hair is masks. Pampering their favorite hair in the cabin happens infrequently. But at home, everyone can do it. Moreover, the use of masks should be absolutely everything, regardless of the condition of the hair. In addition, if you do not know how to care for long hair, spending a minimum percentage of the family budget, then home cooking is the best option.
Nourishing hair mask
A mixture of onion puree and honey must be applied to the scalp and allowed to stand for 30-40 minutes. The ratio of ingredients is 4 to 1, respectively. If the hair is dry and brittle, then a little olive or corn oil can be added to this mixture. In this case, the prepared product is applied one hour before shampooing.
Dandruff mask
If you are not just worried about how to properly care for your hair, and you are trying to get rid of such a nuisance as dandruff, then the next mask is the best option. An hour before washing, a mixture of olive and castor oils, taken in equal amounts and diluted with one yolk, is rubbed directly into the scalp. Caution: before adding the yolk, the oil mixture needs to be slightly warmed up.
Mask against split ends
For a couple, you need to heat half a glass of vegetable oil and one spoon (teaspoon) of lanolin. Pour a teaspoon of dry nettle and birch leaves, chamomile flowers, pansy herbs there. After half an hour, the resulting mixture must be filtered and diluted with whipped yolk and one small spoon of lemon juice. The mask is applied to damp clean hair, withstand an hour.
Scalp peeling

Almost every woman knows that dead skin cells on her face must be regularly removed with peeling. So, the scalp in such exfoliation needs no less. Here is the most affordable and effective peeling that every woman can afford once a week. 5 tablespoons of fine iodized salt are diluted with warm water.
