Some girls were fortunate enough to be born with a head of thick hair which they can curl, straighten and play with to their heart’s content.
Many of the rest of us, however, were not blessed in this department and have spent more time than we ever thought possible fantasising about having a mane of hair that makes heads turn on the daily.
If you’ve resigned yourself to the notion that you will never have a head of enviable hair, then now is the time to wise-up and realise that thick luscious locks are definitely within your reach!
All you need to do is school yourself on these DIY tips and tricks!
DIY Trick #1
Don’t wash your hair too frequently!
Each time we wash our hair, we damage our hair’s natural nutrients which makes our barnet weak and brittle. So this is something we definitely need to avoid on our quest for thick, luscious locks!
DIY Trick #2
Beat one or two eggs, apply it to wet hair, allow it to settle for approximately 30 minutes and then wash it out with shampoo and warm water.
This protein treatment can be applied once a week and will promote strong, thick hair growth!
DIY Trick #3
Apply Aloe Vera gel to your scalp and allow it to sit for 30 minutes before washing out with warm water.
This treatment can be carried out once or twice a week and the moisturising quality of the aloe vera will have a fantastic effect on your scalp which will, in turn, lead to stronger, thicker hair.
DIY Trick #4
Apply an avocado hair mask once a week by mixing one mashed avocado with a tablespoon of olive oil and allowing it to sit on your hair for approximately 30 minutes, before rinsing it out and shampooing.
The vitamin E in the avocado has a positive overall effect on the hair shaft which is exactly what we want, right?
DIY Trick #5
Step away from the straightener, ladies!
We know how damaging these appliances can be, so if you’re serious about strengthening your hair then it’s vital you minimise your use of these tools. Sorry girls, but that’s the bottom line!
Hoping to wake up with long, thick locks isn’t enough. We really need to be proactive about our hair care if we truly want a bangin' barnet!
