How to Create Homemade Hair Care Products?
There are many applications of our products, especially essential oils, when it comes to hair care. Mix and match with your other hair care products to create the perfect look. Here's what DIY haircare can do for you.
Pre-Wash Care
In hair care, natural oils can help to give the appearance of clean hair by washing away loose flakes. This gives your hair the glamorous appearance of being moisturised and smooth-textured. We recommend blending neem oil with coconut oil and lavender essential oil for that perfect scented touch. Massage this blend into your scalp and hair and use your regular shampoo after half an hour.
Note that neem oil is very potent. Best to put on some gloves and wear a protective face mask when blending it with other oils.
Tame That Frizz
Natural extractions like coconut oil can be used to counter the appearance of dry, frizzy hair whilst improving the look of its thickness and natural shine.
You can add a few drops of fractionated coconut oil to your favourite hair conditioner, or you can use it as a stand-alone hair conditioner. To do this, apply a few drops to damp hair from the roots to ends, massage your scalp and let it sit for 30 minutes. Finally, rinse your hair thoroughly to complete the effect.
Addition To Your Shampoo
Your haircare routine is not just for your hair. It is a key part of your whole self-care practice. And adding natural products to this routine can elevate your experience. Peppermint essential oil is a great addition to any shampoo. Simply mix 2-3 drops of this oil into your shampoo and use it as usual. It will add a sweet and minty aroma to your hair.
Massage
Moroccan argan oil is a great oil to use for scalp massages. Just take 10-15 drops of the oil, rub it between your fingers and gently massage on to your scalp. Leave it on for 20-30 minutes. Use your shampoo or conditioner as usual.
Styling Product
Sometimes, your hair just needs a few drops of oil to help give it a stylish, polished finish. If you struggle with dry ends, simply run a few drops of your oil of choice through the ends of your hair, and you’re good to go!
