Hello my curlies !! I know I've been away for far too long. But I'm back and I'm back for good !
So yes I have been on a complete silicon-free, paraben-free hair routine for more than 3 months now and I assure you, my hair has never looked so healthy in years! So all those who are waiting eagerly for the magic potion, read on.
After years of trying different serums, hair gel and tons of harmful chemicals , it's hard to ignore the condition of your precious tresses- sheer misery. Well, it didn't occur to me until I realized my hair stopped responding to my daily products ( yup.. build-up hill ! ). So, I started checking out youtube ( as usual) and came across a potion called "Kimmaytube's home-made conditioner". While it was an interesting mixture, It definitely didn't suit my hair.It may be for you guys- so do check that out on youtube. For me, interestingly, it was few of the ingredients of the that conditioner that saved my curly locks!
Ready for magic? Read on.
The Magical Ingredients:
1. Castor Oil
2. Almond Oil
3. Pure Aloe-vera gel
The fool-proof- awesome-curl routine :
1. Co- wash hair as usual . ( My personal favourite is Herbal Essence - Touchably Smooth)
2. Cover your hair in a micro-fiber towel for 20 minutes.
3. * Magic potion* Add a little Almond oil in your palm, to it add a few drops of Castor oil .Rub it in your palms and start scrunching hair from bottom gradually going up.
NOTE : Do not add too much castor oil as it is thick and it WILL weigh your hair down.
4. Final touch : take a dollop of pure Aloe-vera gel and scrunch your hair as you would using your normal hair gel.
5. Important : DO NOT touch your hair for the next 3 hours ( or until it is dry)
6. Once completely dry- invert your head and massage your scalp to get rid of the gel-cast.
Voila ! Shiny-bouncy curls :)
Do try this and let me know how it turned out for you guys :) ! cheers !
