Home hair treatments for split ends can be a great help. Apply oil, egg, papaya pack, methi, honey, conditioners with boiling water to remove hair split, said a blog post published in Stylish.In.
1.Mix a small amount of castor oil/ olive oil / almond oil (whatever available) into the oil you regularly use (you can use coconut oil). I generally add 2tbsps of castor oil to my coconut oil bottle (250 ml). If you wish to add all three of them you could do that as well. Mix equal proportions of these oils (1 teaspoon each) to the regular oil you use. Make sure you oil your hair-ends well. Generally hair ends that have split appear lightly colored than the rest of the hair. This mixture not only helps your hair grow but it prevents your hair ends from discoloring. Use this mixture to oil your hair atleast twice a week. Massage your hair & scalp with warm oil and wrap head with shower cap and leave for overnight or for 8-10 hours if you have time. Wash.
- Alternatively, take ½ cup oil in ½ cup boiling water in a bottle and close it tightly. Shake vigorously. Massage this mixture thoroughly into your hair from root to tip and cover with shower cap. Leave for ½ hour, then wash. Just be careful with your hands and head as the water is hot.
- Make a pack by beating 1 egg yolk in a mixture of 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp honey. Massage on hair in thoroughly and then wrap head with shower cap for half an hour. Wash.
- A papaya pack is a great natural care of hair split ends. Take 2 big slices (2 small/medium slices) of ripe papaya. Remove the skin and the seeds of the ripe papaya and blend it in a blender. Add to it half a cup of yogurt and apply thoroughly to your scalp and hair. Wash after 30 minutes with warm water. If you don’t have papaya you can used a ripe banana instead.1 ripe banana would do.
- Grind 1Tbsp of methi (fenugreek) seeds with half a cup of urad dal to a coarse powder. Add half a cup of yogurt and mix well. Apply generously all over the scalp. Apply thoroughly to your scalp and hair. Wash after 2-3 hours with warm water.
- Take 4 cups warm water and add 1 tbsp of honey into it and mix well. After you are done with shampoo and conditioning and rinsing, apply this mixture all through your hair. Do not rinse again. This mixture not only makes your hair soft and gives a shine to them; it also retains the moisture content in your hair so that your hair does not look dry or frizzy. This is a home-made leave in serum/conditioner for your hair.
- You get many leave in creams/conditioners/serums in market these days like L’oreal Professional, Garnier, Pantene (though I haven’t tried any of these) which are quite pricey and moreover there is no surety whether that would work on the hair or not. But this one surely works and I don’t think there could be anything more economical than thisJ. I use this one regularly.
