Mustard hair mask reviews

It was the mustard mask that really helped me to grow the length of my hair, after an unsuccessful haircut, I did it twice a week, with a course of 15 masks, besides, the fat content of my hair decreased, although my hair was mine every other day.

I once tried to do a mustard mask course. My eyes were watery from her, dandruff and itching appeared, and besides, peeling, so the mustard experiments had to be stopped, although for the sake of beauty I thought to do it several more times, but the scalp refuses to apply it categorically.

Of course, hair does not grow by 10-15 centimeters per month, as they promise in articles on the Internet, but hair growth is accelerating, besides, new hair has begun to grow and I have a second bang from this hair, so I think the mask also increases the thickness of the hair.

Sometime after childbirth, a mustard mask helped me cope with hair loss (cheaply and effectively), I made only eight masks and the loss returned to normal. But after the birth of my second child, the mask did not help me, I need to look for the reasons inside the body, and I already even guess where this reason is and I am preparing to go to the gastroenterologist.
