Our hair becomes brittle, thin, and more vulnerable to damage as a result of daily exposure to intense sunlight, changing weather, stress, and pollution. Even if there are various products on the market, natural components always work best. Try one of these quick and simple hair masks; they're simple to make and will do wonders for your hair.

1. Avocado and Banana Hair Mask

Avocados are a good source of vitamin E, which helps moisturise and thicken hair. Bananas' natural oils, potassium, carbs, and vitamins help smooth and shield your hair from breaking.

Directions: 1. Combine one tiny ripe banana and one medium-sized ripe avocado in a bowl.
2. To this paste, add one tablespoon each of wheat germ oil and olive oil.
3. Cover the roots and tips of your hair with this mixture by gently massaging it in.
4. After 30 minutes, rinse with shampoo and cold water.


2. Gooseberry, Coconut Oil and Shikakai Powder Hair Mask

Commonly referred to as amla, this fruit is a rich source of vitamin C, flavonoids, and antioxidants, all of which support a healthy scalp and encourage the growth and quality of hair. Shikakai strengthens the roots of your hair while coconut oil nourishes and moisturises your hair.

Directions: 1. Combine two teaspoons of coconut oil with one tablespoon each of amla and shikakai powder, and then bring to a boil.
2. Before going to bed, rub this oil onto your scalp after straining it.
3. Use shampoo to wash your hair in the morning.

3. Flaxseeds and Lemon Juice Hair Mask

Omega-3 fatty acids and proteins found in flaxseeds aid in the promotion of thick hair. It not only controls dandruff but also improves the suppleness of hair.

Directions:

1. Soak some flaxseeds in water for one night.
2. In the morning, combine the flaxseeds with two cups of water and bring them to a boil.
3. When it thickens, turn down the heat and add half a lemon's worth of juice.
4. Turn off the heat and let it cool for a little while.
5. Add a few drops of your preferred essential oil.

4. Yoghurt and Honey Hair Mask

Yogurt, which is rich in proteins, helps nourish hair, making it stronger and healthier. Its antifungal effects calm frizz, soothe the scalp and regulate hair loss. Because it is an emollient, honey prevents hair breakage by sealing in moisture.

Directions:

1: Combine one spoonful of magical honey with two tablespoons of yoghurt.
2: Cover your hair from root to tip with the mask.
3: To distribute the mask evenly, give your scalp a few minutes of massage.
4: After using the mask for 15 to 20 minutes, rinse it off with warm water.
5: After a thorough hair wash, use a hair conditioner.


5. Brown sugar and Olive Oil Hair Mask

Olive oil adds hydration to your hair and prepares your hair with moisture, while brown sugar functions as an exfoliant to help you remove sweat and sebum buildup in your scalp.

Directions:

1. Combine two teaspoons of brown sugar and one tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl.
2. Make sure to cover every strand while applying the mixture to your hair.
3: Gently massage the scrub in small circular motions into your scalp.
4: Continue wearing the mask for 15 to 20 minutes.
5: Use lukewarm water to rinse.
6. Using shampoo and conditioner, wash normally.
