Hi everyone,
how are you all doing????? 😉
Today, I want to talk about a very popular topic: hair care. With increasing pollution, hair problems are on the rise, so today I\’m going to share my honest hair care routine, which I believe will be beneficial for you.
One thing I\’ve been following since my early teenage years is the use of organic and natural ingredients. Whether it\’s for skin issues or hair care, I prepare natural remedies myself. And believe me, I\’ve seen a lot of benefits from this approach.
So, let\’s begin my hair care journey.
.~
\” My hair was naturally strong, long, and healthy as a child because my mom took great care of it. But as soon as I entered my teenage years, I developed a love for fashion. Inspired by videos on YouTube and social media, I started using various shampoos, conditioners, serums, and hair styling products. And guess what? The side effects were terrible. In my teenage years, I faced severe hair fall, split ends, and dull, lifeless hair. My mom was so worried; she thought I\’d be bald in six months. Medical treatments and oil therapies were not working. \”
\” My mom has been reading a religious magazine for many years, and one day she read an article about the side effects of shampoo. From that day on, she banned me from using shampoo and other chemical products. Instead, she prepared a natural remedy for me, which I still use today. \”
Along with this remedy, I also started covering my head, stopped using hair styling gadgets, began oiling my hair regularly, and stopped leaving my hair open all the time. I mostly wore braids and would also make a light braid at night after oiling my hair.
I wash my hair only twice a week. I never forget to cover my hair when going out in the pollution and sun. The results of this routine have been amazing. The results of these small changes were so incredible that within three months, my hair, which had completely stopped growing, was long, silky, shiny, and strong again—just as I wanted it to be. I am still following this routine and have completely cut off chemical products.
The remedy I use for hair wash is a mix of these three ingredients:
- Soap Pod (Shikakai): A traditional Indian herb used for natural hair care.
- Soapnut (Reetha): The fruit of the Sapindus mukorossi tree, known for its natural cleansing properties.
- Indian Gooseberry ( amla ) contains phytonutrients that strengthen the hair shaft, making it less prone to breakage and damage.
- Preparation .
To prepare this, dry all three ingredients and grind them into a powder. The day before you plan to wash your hair, mix a portion of the powder (according to your hair length) with a little water and cook it on a high flame. Once it reaches a thick consistency, turn off the heat. The next day, half an hour before washing your hair, apply it thoroughly like an oil. Then, rinse your hair well with a lot of water to remove any small particles of the powder. If some particles remain, you can brush them out once your hair is dry.
Initially, using these ingredients can be a little challenging, but you get used to it over time. It might seem like a hard routine, but believe me, the benefits are unbelievable.
You can also find these ingredients in ready-made powder packets on Amazon.
