Useful properties of gelatin

Gelatin is a protein product made fromconnective tissue of animals (cows and calves). It has a mass of useful properties that have a beneficial effect on the condition of hair, nails and skin. What is useful for gelatin for hair?

Vitamin E. The vitamin of beauty and youth, which is part of gelatin, strengthens the structure of the hair and strengthens its growth. In addition, vitamin E has intensively moisturizing properties.

Collagen. It is the basis of gelatin. It makes the hair elastic and less brittle.

Protein. In the structure of the hair there is a keratin layer consisting of proteins. Under the influence of aggressive factors (drying with a hairdryer, ironing, etc.) horny scales of the hair begin to crack - the keratin layer begins to lose proteins. Gelatin restores the structure of the hair and fills the cortex or keratin layer with its proteins. The result is healthy hair and tips.

Hair protection. Gelatin envelops every hair with an invisible film, making it shiny, and protects from the harmful effects of the environment.

Versatility. Suitable for any type of hair.

Subtlety and nuance

So that the mask does not have to be washed out for a long time, it is necessary to properly prepare the gelatin. In addition, during the application and use of masks with gelatin, you need to remember some of the nuances:

Gelatin must be dissolved in water, decoction or juice in proportions of approximately 1: 3.

Gelatine for the mask should completely dissolve and be a homogeneous mass without lumps.

"Dissolve" gelatin is best in a water bath. Just make sure that gelatin does not boil. In this case, it will lose its properties.

Calculate the amount of gelatin for a mask based on the length and thickness of your hair. If you take 1 tablespoon gelatin, then the other ingredients should also be added on a tablespoon.

If you are using gelatin for the first time - perform an allergy test (at the elbow bend or behind the ear). Unfortunately, allergy to gelatin is quite a frequent phenomenon.

Use gelatin masks as often as you want.

The minimum course of masks is 4-5. Only after so many masks the result will be noticeable.

To wash gelatinous mask from hair it is necessary with special carefulness, using shampoo. Otherwise gelatin can glue the hair.
