Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons of Flaxseeds (rich in Omega-3 fatty acids and proteins that help in smoothening the hair)
- 1 tablespoon of Chia Seeds (high in nutrients that promote hair strength and shine)
- 2 tablespoons of Aloe Vera Gel (nourishes and hydrates the hair)
- 1 tablespoon of Coconut Oil (adds moisture and shine)
- 1 tablespoon of Honey (acts as a humectant, locking in moisture)
- 1 Egg White (packed with proteins that help in strengthening and smoothing the hair)
- 1 tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar (balances the scalp’s pH and adds shine)
- 5 drops of Essential Oil of your choice (optional, for fragrance)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Flaxseed Gel:
- In a small pot, add 2 tablespoons of flaxseeds to 1 cup of water.
- Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once the mixture thickens to a gel-like consistency, strain the seeds out using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth.
- Let the flaxseed gel cool.
- Prepare the Chia Seed Mixture:
- Soak 1 tablespoon of chia seeds in ½ cup of water for about 10 minutes until it forms a gel.
- Blend this mixture to ensure it’s smooth.
- Mix All Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled flaxseed gel, blended chia seed mixture, aloe vera gel, coconut oil, honey, egg white, and apple cider vinegar.
- Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated into a smooth, even consistency.
- Application:
- Dampen your hair with water.
- Section your hair and start applying the mixture from the roots to the tips, ensuring every strand is covered.
- Gently massage the treatment into your scalp and through your hair.
- Let it Sit:
- Cover your hair with a shower cap or a plastic wrap.
- Let the treatment sit for 1-2 hours to allow the nutrients to penetrate deeply.
- Rinse:
- Rinse your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water.
- Follow up with a mild sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner if needed.
- Dry and Style:
- After rinsing, gently towel-dry your hair.
- For best results, blow-dry your hair on a cool setting and use a straightening iron if desired for extra smoothness and shine.
