Hair mask
Ingredients
- Warp
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil
- 2 teaspoons of honey
Cooking
Honey needs to be liquid or cooled after being pre-melted in a water bath. Avoid using hot mixtures as they may cause the yolk to curdle, rendering the mask unfit for its intended purpose. We take a mask and add each ingredient one at a time, blending the concoction well. Add the honey last and stir everything together once more.
Consistency is one of this mask’s distinguishing qualities. The most important thing is that the texture of the mask feels good on you. You can adjust the amounts, add more or less mask, oil, and so forth. I think these measurements are perfect.
The texture of the mask is different from that of just honey, egg, and oil. My version of the mask is a very pleasant option with an ideal yogurt texture and a pleasant aroma, not some kind of incomprehensible liquid. I enjoy using it, and I don’t feel like I’m tarnishing my reputation with anything unclear.
Before washing, the mask should be applied to dirty hair. After an hour, let it sit and wash your hair as normal. Apply hair conditioner once the hair washing routine is complete.
Impressions after use
Because they give my hair more density, honey masks are my favorite. But using honey on its own or combined with other masks is a very sticky "pleasure," so I didn’t often wear these kinds of masks. I now use them occasionally because, to me, the mask that is used as a base completely removes stickiness, which is an incredible benefit.
Effects
- Hair density. Hair immediately becomes more elastic, like small forests and dense. Since I have ombre, part of my hair is bleached, and part grows healthy, and after this mask you no longer feel the difference between your own and bleached hair. They become equally dense.
- Nutrition. The mask also has nourishing properties and the hair really looks and feels nourished: it is smooth, heavy and dense.
- Shine. The hair begins to shimmer amazingly.
- Weighting. The mask has a light smoothing effect, disciplining the protruding hairs along the length, but at the same time does not deprive the hair of its natural volume, which is extremely important for owners of thin hair.
Hair nourishment mask
Components:
- Base (Serical mask with milk proteins) – 1.5 tablespoons
- Flaxseed oil – 1 teaspoon
- Olive oil – 1 teaspoon
Preparation
Every component has been well combined.
Before washing, the mask should be applied to dirty hair. After an hour, go ahead and wash your hair as normal. Apply hair conditioner once the hair washing routine is complete.
Impression after use
This mask is a great substitute for the typical oil-based one because it can be removed much more quickly and easily, without sacrificing any of the mask’s effectiveness.
Hair receives its share of nourishment. They get elasticity and shine. The length of the stubble is smoothed out, somewhat masking the overall volume, and my damaged hair has a noticeable shine thanks to the oils. One of my favorite masks is this one. You can modify the oils to your preference and use it as an example. I prefer to use a blend of enveloping (linseed) and penetrating (olive) oils. The effect is then most noticeable on the hair.
Hair moisturizing mask
Components:
- Garnier superfood aloe mask (base) – 1 tablespoon
- Propylene glycol* — 5 drops
- Panthenol* — 10 drops
- Aloe concentrate – 20 drops
- *Propylene glycol is sold in stores for vapers.
- Panthenol is sold in stores for soap makers.
- Aloe concentrate can be replaced with juice or gel. The concentration of this component can be any – it’s hard to overdo it with aloe.
Preparation
Every component has been well combined.
Before washing, the mask should be applied to dirty hair. After an hour, let it sit and wash your hair as normal. Apply hair conditioner once the hair washing routine is complete.
Impression after use
This mask’s ingredients can be reduced to a base and combined with gel or juice of aloe; the mask will provide excellent moisturizing properties. Just because I have multiple moisturizing ingredients, I use them.
My hair is incredibly hydrated after using the mask. It manifests as the hair’s complete weightlessness and softening of the ends. They have no weight to them; they are airy and light. Fingers can easily slide through the hair, which dries quickly and flows beautifully without catching anything. If the lack of weighting bothers you, I recommend switching out the mask base for something "heavier" and more nourishing, like Kaaral Maraes. In this instance, the active ingredients you added will give the nourishing mask moisturizing qualities, while the base will give you weighting and smoothing.
