DIY Moisturizing Hair Mask
This moisturizing hair mask is perfect for all hair types, especially those that require some extra TLC during the winter season. Packed with natural ingredients, it hydrates, strengthens, and restores shine to your hair.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons of coconut oil
2 tablespoons of honey
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel
2–3 drops of essential oil (lavender or rosemary for that festive touch)
Method:
Melt Coconut Oil: If your coconut oil happens to be solid, let it melt slightly until it will turn into a liquid consistency.
Mix Ingredients: Using a small bowl, blend together the melted coconut oil with honey, olive oil, and aloe vera gel. Stir well to smooth out to a creamy consistency.
Add Essential Oils: Add a few drops of lavender or rosemary essential oil for fragrance and extra hair benefits (both oils promote healthy hair growth and are very relaxing).
Package: Transfer the mixture into small jars or containers. You can tie a festive ribbon or label the jar with “Nourishing Hair Mask” and instructions.
Instructions for Use:
Step 1: Apply generous amounts of the mask on clean, damp hair. Apply on the scalp and ends, where dryness is more prominent.
Step 2: Massage into hair and let it be there for 2030 minutes
Step 3: Rinse thoroughly with warm water and use regular shampoo and conditioner
Step 4: Once a week will give soft, shiny, and healthy hair
