Shampoos


Washing with eggs  (make sure the water is not too hot when washing with eggs, keep it at a cool/slightly warm as otherwise you may make scrambled eggs.)


Baking soda (2 table spoons) mixed with warm water. (your hair will feel rough at first but when dry will be soft)


Lemon and cucumber (mashed/juiced with bits) The lemon is cleansing for the scalp while the cucumber is soothing. For oily hair add more lemon for dry scalp add more cucumber.

For extra softness and repair add a small amount of argan oil into these remedies. Your hair may feel rough at first and it may not seem to work, however this is due to the silicone left in the hair from past shampoos. It will take about two weeks of washing to remove these silicones from the hair, after two-three weeks your hair should feel smoother and in better condition. Eggs are used as they are high in protein and have lots of antioxidants that your hair needs to stay healthy and long.

Masks for hair


2 eggs and argan oil – mask for long hair and to repair damaged hair


Coconut milk, Coconut oil,  1 egg and argan oil


Aloe vera, yogart, and argan oil (Massage the mask into your hair and leave for 2o-60 minutes)

Tips for long and smooth hair thats in good condition 

  1. Brush with a wide tooth comb, this will prevent hair being pulled out and snapping. Also be gently with your hair when brushing, it helps to run your fingers through your hair to remove larger knots first.

  2. Try not to use any heat on your hair, including hair dryer, straighteners or curlers. If you need to style your hair with heat use a hair dryer and  let your hair dry naturally first until only slightly damp. Also use rollers and keep them in to create nice waves or curls without heat.

  3. Wear a swimming cap when swimming or keep hair out of chlorinated waters as that can damage your hair.

  4. Massage your hair as much as possible as this causes blood to circulate better and stimulates growth.

  5. Oil the scalp regularly with argan oil, this will increase growth, shine, softness, health of hair and thickness.

  6. Regularly have your hair cut to remove split ends so they do not split further up your hair.

  7. Try and stay out of direct sunlight, mainly on holidays as can dry out your hair.

  8. Most importantly a healthy diet will improve your hair condition. Your hair does reflect your diet.
