Night hair mask. We sleep and the hair gets stronger

The life of a modern girl is so eventful that there is no time for masks at all, especially if you wash your hair in the morning. So, on the advice of a friend, I switched to night hair masks. For me, a hair mask for the night is a useful and convenient way out of the situation if time is limited during the day, but hair care is still needed. I will not say that my hair is in poor condition and needs to be saved, I use professional hair cosmetics, I just sometimes want to pamper them with something useful, plus with the heating turned on they became a little dry in length, and of course which girl does not want to strengthen hair and improve their growth.

Night hair mask recipe

The mask is applied to dry, dirty hair. Before applying the mask, I comb my hair well and do a light massage with my fingers or comb for 15 minutes with darsonval. We make the mask in two stages.

Night hair mask recipeOn the scalp:

  • 1 teaspoon ginger juice
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 3-5 drops of essential oil (bey, orange, lemon, rosemary).

For hair length:

  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

First, I mix the mask onto the scalp. If you have a sensitive scalp, you can take less ginger and use more oil. I rub the ginger on a grater and squeeze the juice through cheesecloth, add olive oil to it and at the end essential oil. When choosing an essential oil, take one that smells good to you, because you will need to sleep with it all night. I apply the mask along the parting with a hair dye brush.

I heat the mixture for the length of the hair in a water bath and apply it in a warm form to the length, departing from the roots of the hair by fifteen centimeters, that is, if you take the hair in a ponytail, then you can apply a mask to everything that hangs down.

Then I braid my hair in two pigtails, and so that the pillow does not get dirty, I put an old pillowcase on it. If you apply the mask in moderation and it does not drain from your hair, then there will be no uncomfortable sensations.

In the morning I wash my head as usual, wash my hair twice with shampoo and the mask is washed out of the hair without any problems, then I apply conditioner, because if you also apply a purchased mask, you can overload the hair. It is enough to do the mask once a week.

Now about the action of the mask:

Ginger has been famous for the content of useful vitamins and minerals for more than one century. Also, ginger improves blood circulation, which leads to better nutrition of the hair, respectively, the hair is strengthened and its growth is accelerated.

Olive oil useful for any type of hair, it will help prevent many hair problems (prevent moisture loss in hair, protect against dryness, strengthen hair from the inside, prevent split ends).

Essential oils for a long time they have been famous for their healing properties both in medicine and in cosmetology. Essential oils are very often added to hair care series and their effectiveness has been proven by experts. The article How to choose essential oils for hair, you can choose the essential oil depending on the hair problem.

Coconut oil famous for its ability to penetrate the hair structure and thus restore it from the inside. The oil nourishes and moisturizes the hair, penetrates the hair structure and prevents shampoos and other products from washing out the protein from them, moisturizes dry hair and prevents split ends.

Each ingredient in the mask works to improve the condition of the hair. But still, when choosing oils, give preference to unrefined and cold-pressed, then they retain all the useful substances.

Summing up, I can say about my feelings after the mask: the hair after the mask flows, is not overloaded, moisturized, hair to hair, that is, I am satisfied with the result.If you do the mask once a week and wash your hair in between using commercial masks, your hair will always be in good condition.

    Good day!
    The first time I did this kind of mask at night, I would like to get your advice: I did everything according to the recipe, chose tea tree essential oil at the roots (hair is prone to oily) and added almond oil to the roots and ends. In the morning, I washed off the mask twice and applied balm to the ends. I dried my hair in a natural way, on the already dried I did styling with a hairdryer, since the bob haircut at the end cooled the hair in the cold air mode. As a result, the hair is slightly dry in length. I applied natural macadamia oil to the very tips. What is the most likely cause of dryness? Hair dryer or shampoo?

      And what is your shampoo (for volume, restoring ...)?
      And be sure to apply thermal protection before each blow-drying. Next time try sesame oil, olive oil, or hemp oil for hair length (instead of almond oil).
