 Red Hair Treatment - BY A. RICE |
|
All the women
in my family have red hair. This trait goes back a long way in
our family, and this treatment is commonly used to keep our hair
looking vibrant instead of dull.
Mix:
- 1 cup dark berry
juice (any kind will do)
- 1/2 cup rosehips
- 1/2 cup cloves
- 1/4 cup strong
black coffee
Distribute evenly
throughout your hair. There will definitely be some left over,
but put in as much of the mixture as your hair can hold. Leave
on for 10 minutes, and then rinse thoroughly with warm water
and let dry. |

Honey Hair Spray - BY
JULIE S |
|
I use honey-water
instead of hair spray. I just rinse out a small plastic spray
bottle, add about two tablespoons of honey to the bottom of the
bottle, fill the bottle with hot water, and shake well. I store
the mixture in the refrigerator, and I've found that it will
keep for about two weeks. I would suggest that you use the mixture
sparingly, and that you completely clean the bottle and spray
mechanism every time you make a fresh batch. It works well on
my long, straight hair. |

Hair Gel -
BY REDSTAR |
|
You can make hair
gel out of egg white. Let the egg white dry in your hair with
some hair spray so it won't stink. |

Hair Care Tip -
BY KRISTEN
M |
|
Before going into
the pool, wet your hair in a shower or sink. When you wet your
hair with regular water your hair soaks up that water first,
instead of soaking up mostly chlorinated water first. This way,
not only will the chlorine do less damage, but your hair won't
reek of it for days. |

Highlighting With a Zest of Lemon - BY KATIE |
|
Take some lemon
juice (store bought or squeezed yourself) and run it through
your hair. Go outside and let your hair sit in the sun for about
15-20 minutes. The lemon juice might irritate your head afterwards,
so you should condition it. |
