Remedies For Shiny Hair
- By: Sharon Hopkins
We all love our hair and would
not mind taking that extra step to take care of it. For beautiful,
lustrous and shiny hair use these simple home remedies.
A tea and beer rinse is
one of the oldest ways to bring shine to your hair. Boil used
tea leaves in enough water, let it cool and then use this liquid
as the last rinse.

In the similar fashion
you can use flat beer (i.e. after letting the fizz out). This
is a great conditioner to be used for your hair.
Lemon juice mixed with
water can also be used as a last rinse to give your hair a shiny
and bouncy look.
A shiny look is also provided
if you use vinegar for your final rinse.
To bring that shine one
can use honey to keep your scalp moisturized. You can make honey
lotion for your hair by mixing 3 teaspoons of honey for pint
of water.
The use of henna as a
natural conditioner proves to be very beneficial for your hair.
It helps to bring back the bounce and flair of your hair which
has been lacking for quite a while. |

You can add small amount
of baking soda in the shampoo which, removes dirt and grease
from your hair to give you the shiny look.
To remove the dirt and
other matter from your hair you can use one fourth cup of apple
cider vinegar in one gallon of condensed water. This can be stored
in the refrigerator and can be used every two weeks for clean,
smooth, silky and shiny hair. The proper way to use this solution
is to wet your hair with warm water, shampoo it later rinse it.
Pour two cups of this mixture and leave it in your hair for sometime.
The last stage is to rinse your hair with cold-water.
To get that extra shine
for your hair brew one cup of strong espresso, let it cool. Pour
the espresso over your dry hair and leave it for 20 minutes.
Rinse it to get the extra shine and glow.
You can also make Egg
shampoo at home which requires 1 egg, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1
teaspoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon castile soap, 1/2 a cup water
or herbal tea and last but not the least 5 drops of essential
oils of your choice. Blend all these together to make an Egg
shampoo which can bring shine to your hair.
Many of us who want to
clean their hair use shampoos. Try this for a change, massage
baking soda into your hair and scalp. This absorbs oil and loosens
the dead skin on the scalp. Rinse it thoroughly with water. In
the initial stages the hair would be dry but after several weeks
you would be dandruff free with smooth and shiny hair.
