Dry hair shampoo recipes



Dry hair shampoo recipes target dry skin of the scalp. They also coat the hair shaft with moisture necessary to keep the hair hydrated and healthy. 


Dry skin is easily dried, can be scaly and itchy. It lacks natural oils that normal skin type has, or the oil doesn't stay long enough on the skin to keep it coated. 


Using natural ingredients that provide moisture and hydration, and ideally lock in the oil, can help prevent and heal dry itchy scalp and dry brittle hair.

Ingredients


2 tablespoon of unscented shampoo
3 drops of tea tree essential oil




Preparation


Combine the shampoo and tea tree oil.
Apply on the hair, massage the scalp and lather hair/
Rinse off with warm water.


Tea tree oil is a powerful antiseptic that prevents infections. It is used on the skin as a healing agent and will almost immediately soothe dry and flaky skin.


Lemon dry hair shampoo


Ingredients


1/4 tablespoon of lemon essential oil
1/2 cup of distilled water
2 tablespoons of dried rosemary (if you have dark hair) or chamomile (if you have light hair)
1/2 cup of unscented shampoo

1 tablespoon of salt




Preparation


Combine the water and herbs and bring to a boil in a saucepan. Remove from the heat and let it cool down

Jojoba oil has many uses in skin, nail and hair care. It nourishes the skin, and is a good ingredient when you want to play safe with skin care recipes as it is good for sensitive skin. It replenishes the moisture well.

Peaches Anti-Cancer

Peaches are good for you because they are a source of vitamins A and C and they are a good source of fiber especially with the peal. Peaches are also a good source of potassium and contain some calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and folate. Though low in calories—one cup of sliced peaches has only 60 calories—and composed of 80 percent water, peaches are packed with fiber, vitamins, minerals, and carotenoids. The dose of fiber in peaches acts as a gentle laxative, aids digestion, and may also help combat cancer.  Peaches is rich in cancer-fighting vitamin A in the form of beta carotene,  as well as the immune-boosting vitamin C, which also protects against heart disease. Rich in iron and potassium, peaches help ensure proper functioning of cells, the balance of fluid and electrolytes in the body, and nerve signaling.  Lutein and zeaxanthin —two carotenoids found in peaches—help guard against blindness caused by age-related macular degeneration.
