Homemade Hair Straightening Mask Recipe-1

Hi Everyone!

This is Day 18 of my Blog-Marathon and today I am gonna share one of my favorites homemade hair straightening mask with you all. I have very thick, wavy and bouncy hair and to straighten them I use hair masks quite often to weigh them down. Sometimes I go for Hair Waxes from Watsons and other times I make hair masks at home. So, without further ado here is one of my favorites homemade hair straightening mask Recipe:


 

Ingredients needed for Flexseeds Hair Mask 

  • 1 Cup of Flax Seeds
  • 4 Cups of Water 
  • 1tsp of Olive Oil(or coconut oil or vitaminE)
  • 1tsp of Alovera Gel
  • 1tsp of Honey
  • Few drops lemon (optional)

Procedure 

First take 1 cup of flax-seeds in a Pan and add 4 cups of water in it. Then boil this mixture for about 5-10 minutes on a low flame. Also don't forget to mix it well in between. After gel is formed well, with the help of strainer, strain the mixture in a jar before it cools down (you can also use cotton cloth to take out gel residue) other wise it will get way thicker once it cools down. You can also add any essential oil of your choice if you want. Shelf life of this gel mask is 10 days if you store it in the refrigerator. But if you add essential oil you can store it for up to 20 days or so. So, once gel cools down you can add all other ingredients one by one as per your needs. You can apply this gel once a week and follow this for one month for better results.

How to Apply Flex Seeds Hair Mask 

First thing you need to is to section your hair so that you can apply this mask easily. Then comb each hair section and apply this mask on your hair sections one by one from root to end. Leave it for 20-30 minutes and then wash it off with mild shampoo. (After using this mask you won''t have to condition your hair coz this mask works as conditioner as well).
