Any woman who at least once in her lifeAnyone who has done highlights, dyed individual strands in bright shades or experimented with color knows how much hair gets damaged after the procedure, even if the best, most expensive and gentle products were used for this. In order to restore the former shine, elasticity and add life to your hair after dyeing, you need to regularly do special restorative masks. Of course, you can buy suitable cosmetics for you in the nearest store or supermarket, which contain quite a large number of different chemical components, but you will not find anything better and more effective than what you prepare at home.
Nourishing masks for all types of hair
Once a week you can do a regular egg washa mask that strengthens weakened and depleted hair from dyeing. First, separate the yolks, then beat the whites with a small amount of filtered water, apply to damp hair and rinse off after a couple of minutes. If you want to add a little shine to your hair, add a tablespoon of fresh dry yeast to the resulting mixture. After that, rub the yolk into the roots with massaging movements, wrap the head with a special film and a thick terry towel that retains heat. After fifteen minutes, rinse everything with plenty of warm water, to which you should add a little mustard or lemon to soften the Ph. It is better to do this procedure on the weekend, when you do not need to go anywhere, since the next day the hair may be a little greasy and stuck together if you do not rinse it well. Another fairly popular recipe for a mask for colored hair, which our mothers used - a mixture of eggs (2 pieces), honey (teaspoon) and vegetable or olive oil (tablespoon). All ingredients are thoroughly mixed until a homogeneous viscous mass is obtained, which is applied in an even layer along the entire length of the hair. These products can also be whipped with a mixer or blender, but make sure that too much foam does not form as a result. The mask is washed off after twenty to thirty minutes.
How to keep a bright color for as long as possible
In order to add at homesaturation of the color already obtained, it is recommended to make masks for dyed hair from cognac (about 100 grams) and egg yolk. The resulting mixture is applied once every five days for twenty minutes, no more, otherwise you risk burning the already inflamed skin. Please note that this procedure is not recommended during the first week after dyeing, otherwise you may experience irritation or itching. Choose only high-quality cognac, as a fake can cause irreparable harm to your hair. At home, you can prepare special masks, thanks to which the paint does not wash off not only after the second, but also after the twentieth wash. For this, you will need chamomile (it is sold in any pharmacy) and two eggs. The herbs are poured with boiling water and infused for four hours, after which the broth is filtered through a sieve so that you do not have to suffer with plant particles in your head later, and whipped whites are added to it. Apply the resulting mixture only to clean, dry and well-combed hair. As soon as the consistency dries slightly, wash it off. To make your hair bright, shiny and silky, use masks for colored hair made from exotic fruits. It is quite easy to make at home: you will need one ripe (but not overripe) banana, half a soft and juicy avocado. All this must be ground in a meat grinder so that there are no lumps left. Add a tablespoon of olive oil (without impurities and flavors), honey warmed to room temperature and three quail egg yolks to the resulting puree. Half an hour will be enough for the beneficial components to start working. After you wash off the mask, be sure to wash your hair with shampoo.
Effective masks for blondes
If you have changed from a burning brunette tobright blond or highlights, you will need to do a whole range of complex procedures to revive overdried hair. To do this, you do not have to go to beauty salons and pay quite a lot of money for products and hairdressers' services, since healing and restorative masks for damaged hair can be made at home. Mix burdock and castor oil with lemon juice and apply to the roots for two hours. Please note that this recipe can only be used for light hair. Each time after you wash your hair, rinse your hair with a decoction of nettle, chamomile, oregano and plantain. This way, you will get rid of unwanted yellowness that may appear if you bleached your hair at home. If desired, you can add two hundred grams of black bread to the resulting decoction, which should first be wrapped in a small piece of gauze. The resulting consistency should be used no more than three times a week.
Useful masks for brunettes
To add shine and richness, you will be helped bya regular coffee bean mask that you can make at home in a few minutes. Finely ground coffee (about two tablespoons) is brewed with 0.5 liters of boiling water and left for two to three minutes. As soon as the life-giving drink for your hair has completely cooled, apply it to the roots of your hair with light massaging movements. If you do not want to comb out the remaining grains, strain the broth through gauze or a cloth folded in several layers. You will have to walk around with the mask for about an hour, having previously put a bag on your hair so as not to get dirty. The next ingredient in the simplest mask for colored hair, which almost every housewife has in the refrigerator, is mayonnaise. It can be used to treat dry, damaged, burnt hair at home, just squeeze a small clove of garlic into it. The main thing is not to overdo it with the latter, otherwise you can get a serious skin burn, after which you will feel slight discomfort when combing or touching for several days. Apply the mask for ten minutes, then be sure to wash your hair with shampoo.
Saving tinctures for redheads
Besides rinsing freshly paintedhair with a decoction of chamomile, it is also recommended to use a mask of parsley. Cut fifty grams of greenery, pour boiling water over it and wait until the decoction cools down a little, so as not to burn yourself during the procedure, then immediately apply it to your head. It will not only help you maintain a bright red color, but also give your hair sunny shades. Also, many red-haired girls use henna, which is diluted with kefir, egg and olive oil. This will allow you to resort to dyeing less often, since even if your hair began to fade greatly and, in the end, became less bright, this mask will return its richness and shine. The only caveat is that you are unlikely to be able to wash it off in one go.
How to restore dyed gray hair
Gray hair for many representatives of the fair sexgender - a sign of inevitable old age and fading of former beauty, so they try to hide the changes occurring with their hair with paint. However, if ordinary hair can easily be changed, then hair that has lost its pigment requires more aggressive and long-term exposure, which leads to serious consequences - baldness. In order not to wear wigs at sixty, at forty you should start making masks from colorless henna, cocoa, tobacco soaked in water, which you can take out of a cigarette, a few sprigs of cloves, eggs and olive oil. All of the above ingredients are mixed in a spoon of sour milk diluted in a small amount of warm water. The resulting mixture is brought to a boil in a stainless steel vessel, while it should be stirred with a wooden spoon so that it does not burn and does not spoil. As soon as this gruel cools down a little, you can immediately use it as a regular mask. After the procedure, you will need to wash your hair with shampoo, dry it with a terry towel and comb it with a soft brush.
Masks that prevent cross-section of tips
The day after you paintedhair, be sure to make masks that will prevent the ends from splitting. Today, many representatives of the fair sex use regular one-percent kefir, which can be found on the shelves of supermarkets. It is applied no more than once a week, otherwise the roots will quickly become greasy and dirty. If you cannot wash off the mask with regular water and lemon, use a small amount of shampoo.
How to accelerate the growth of hair and bring the scalp in order
Very often after dyeing the hair beginsgrow much slower than before, but you can fix this situation with a regular mask of nettle, sage, plantain and celandine. Crushed leaves should be poured with boiling water and left for several hours until the water cools. Rye bread is added to the resulting broth, which saturates the roots with vitamins and useful minerals. After the procedure, you will need to use a comb with thick teeth to remove the remaining crumbs. If you have an allergy to the dye, itching or dandruff, it is recommended to make a remedy from onion juice, garlic and lemon (in a one to one ratio). Apply for fifteen minutes and rinse with plenty of liquid. It is recommended to do such masks for hair damaged by dye in the evening, as some ingredients may leave an unpleasant odor. However, if you need to quickly get rid of the resulting aroma, wash your hair with warm water with lemon or mustard, but do not use shampoo under any circumstances, as the effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
Precautions or what not to do with hair
When making masks at home, remember thateverything should be done in moderation. Firstly, if you have dyed your hair in bright colours, do not use too many oils, otherwise the colour will wash off after two or three procedures. Before you apply the resulting mass to your hair, check if you are allergic to any of the components. To do this, simply apply it to a small area of skin on your elbow, as this is where it is most sensitive. If after fifteen minutes no side effects appear (itching, redness, irritation, rash, etc.), you can safely use the mask as intended. We recommend reading:
