DIY-HOMEMADE HAIRMASKS FOR DIFFERENT HAIR ISSUES | DANDRUFF | HAIRFALL | SPLIT ENDS | FRIZZY & DRY HAIR | HEADLICE & NITS | PROMOTES HAIR GROWTH

What I've found in these years of hair-trauma is, there's nothing better than a good hair mask, shampoo and a conditioner that can pamper your hair so well, for a shiny, smooth and healthy hair.

Hair problems are common. But there are no common solutions. Yes, that's because individuals' hair needs differ from person to person. Lets say, "Brand X" company's hair mask or shampoo helped me to get rid of all my dandruff, it doesn't mean that, it works well for you too. It depends on hair types, scalp issues, degree of exposure to pollution and so many other factors. 

Personally, I always love to try my grandma's homemade hair recipes, which absolutely renders  amazing results on my hair. I hope these DIYs works best across generations and that's why, I have decided to share some common homemade hair masks recipes, which are popular & that are highly effective. 

Note: Make sure to patch test any new products before applying it onto your entire hair. If you are allergic to any products used in these recipes or if you have sinus problems, etc., avoid applying products which does not suit you. Always apply hair mask on a dry hair.
