WHAT ARE HAIR MASKS?
Hair masks are some of the most talked-about hair care products nowadays, but do you know what they are? Of course, they are great for the mane, but why? Well, in short, hair masks are effective and simple products that provide nutrients, hydration, and other health benefits for the locks in a short amount of time.
You can either try out some DIY hair masks, like the ones we are going to show you today OR you can buy them at Metro Brazil’s website, for example! Some of these products are specifically formulated to add shine, smoothness, and hydration, for example, while others are great for giving a better definition for curly hair!
Now that you know what hair masks are, let’s move on to the anti-frizz masks’ recipes!
3 DIY ANTI-FRIZZ HAIR MASKS
- OLIVE OIL + BROWN SUGAR
If now only your hair is frizzy but it’s also dry, this mask is the one for you! Olive oil is a fantastic natural emollient that can make the locks softer and shinier. Its moisturizing properties are also great for dry scalps! Moreover, brown sugar is an amazing way to provide gentle exfoliation to the hair, making it cleaner and more prone to absorbing nutrients!
Moving on to the recipe, you’ll need 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. Mix them all together and apply the mixture to damp hair, from the top to the ends! Let it act for 20 minutes and then rinse your hair!
- COCONUT OIL + BANANA
Coconut oil is a famous ingredient due to its moisturizing and hydration properties. Combined with banana, a fruit rich in minerals, vitamins, and natural oils, it’s the perfect solution for frizzy locks!
This recipe is super simple: mash 1 sliced banana into a bowl and add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Then, apply the mix to your damp, clean hair and leave it for 30 minutes. After that, just rinse!
Tip: If you want to try out a coconut oil hair mask but don’t want to DIY, we recommend the Brazilian brand Nazca’s Coconut Oil Intensive Moisture hair cream! A simple way to hydrate your hair and get softer, smoother locks!
- LEMON + HONEY
This DIY hair mask is especially great for blondes! Lemon is a natural bleaching agent, rich in vitamin C and other nutrients, meaning it will give your hair nutrition at the same time it highlights your blonde locks! Honey, in turn, is a fantastic moisturizer. These ingredients combined give the hair shine, hydration, and smoothness, so try this recipe to get rid of frizz!
For the recipe, mix 2 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons of water. Then, apply it to freshly washed, damp hair and let it sit for 10 minutes. After that, rinse with lukewarm water and remove residues with a gentle, hydrating shampoo!
