Natural Ingredients for Your Hair Care

Natural Ingredients for Your Hair Care
Henna Powder
Any tips you hear from anybody are suggestive; you can try them, but if they don’t work for you, ditch them!

1. Shea Butter:
Comes from a tree native to Africa which has soothing, moisturizing and protecting effects, also known as Butyrospermum Parkii. It displays a protective role against UV rays because of its cinnamic acid content. Shea Butter returns luster to skin and hair, and also protects the skin and scalp, especially in over-processed and/or heat treated hair.

2. Chamomile:
Is a member of the daisy family and is an herb that purifies, calms and soothes with virtually no adverse effects so it can be used for long periods of time. The active ingredients in chamomile are called essential oils and flavonoids which are good for healing skin and scalp irritations.

3. Sunflower Oil:
Has high amounts of Vitamins A, B, D and E, minerals, lecithin, insulin, and unsaturated fatty acids and is an excellent moisturizer because of its emollients. Emollients are known to soften skin and hair without leaving an oily residue.

4. Avocado Oil:
Is a rich heavy oil, more penetrating than most oils. It is therefore good for dry hair and skin. It is obtained from the pulp of the avocado pear and has a deep green color. It is stable, natural oil, rich in vitamin E. Avocado also contains Vitamins A, B1, B2, D, and Beta carotene. It is classified as monosaturated oil and is best suited for dry hair and skin.

5. Witch Hazel:
Is extracted from the bark and leaves of the Hamamelis tree and is an astringent and gentle cleanser which removes build-up on the hair as well as the scalp; it also helps to fight dandruff.

6. Olive Oil:
Is obtained directly from the olive after it has been harvested. It is made into a paste from which the oil is collected. Olive oil conditions and improves the strength and elasticity of the hair, helping to prevent breakage. It’s also very good for "frizzy" and damaged hair.

7. Honey:
Naturally attracts and holds moisture. It is also a natural antiseptic and contains antioxidants. Honey is packed with vitamins and minerals such as magnesium, potassium, calcium, sulphur, iron, zinc and vitamins B1, B2, B3, which aid in hair growth. It can be added to conditioners, rinses and pomades.

8. Aloe Vera:
Known as the true or medicinal aloe, aloe vera is a species of succulent plants now widely used as a moisturizer and can also be used as a gel to re-twist locked hair. Aloe Vera is also used for soothing the skin, and keeping the skin moist while eliminating the risk of flaky scalp in harsh and dry weather.

9. Henna and ayurvedic herbs:
Henna and ayurvedic herbs will strengthen your hair, add gorgeous shine, protect it from the elements, and help it grow stronger, longer and healthier. There will be persons who don’t want color. There are other ayurvedic herbs that are perfect to use for their varying needs and give you all the benefits of using henna.

b. Organic Amla Powder: This herb is widely use to promote hair growth. It also tones down the red of henna. Some don’t want the amla to affect their color results, so they can use it as a separate hair treatment, especially so if they want to tighten up their curls from the loosening affects of henna. Amla can be added directly to the henna powder or cassia obovata. Can be mixed and used within 15 minutes.

c. Shikakai: It helps strengthen hair from its roots. It is known as a natural hair cleanser and has a very low pH. It won’t strip the hair of its natural oils, and also acts as a detangler. Can be mixed and used within 15 minutes.
