Nourishing Hair Masks for Damaged Hair

Sooth dry and damaged locks with one of these easy-to-make pantry-staple hair masks designed to nourish dry and damaged locks. Plus, some ingredients can double up as natural conditioners to restore shine to your locks!

Although no treatment can fully heal split ends (for this, a trim may be required), this treatment can conceal them to give your hair the appearance of being healthy and radiant.

1. Coconut Oil

Coconut oil isn’t just delicious to snack on–it can also be an amazing ingredient for hair! Coconut oil’s amazing moisturizing qualities help restore damaged, dry strands while its abundance of antioxidants help fight free radical damage. Combine it with honey as an all-natural humectant that locks in moisture for healthy strands, and it becomes even more effective! Be sure to warm the coconut oil first before applying it directly onto your scalp or strands.

DIY masks can be an effective solution for brittle, dry hair. According to Philip Kingsley Brand President and Consultant Trichologist Anabel Kingley, they are especially helpful for color-treated locks as it targets color-related breakage for smoother, silkier locks – just mix all of your ingredients, apply to your scalp and strands, wait 20 minutes, rinse out and repeat as often as twice or three times weekly!

2. Aloe Vera

Aloe vera plant extract is an invaluable addition to hair masks for its clarifying properties, clearing away build-up on the scalp without stripping away essential natural hair oils essential to healthy locks – making it the ideal solution for deep cleaning without irritating or further damaging locks (source).

TikTok users have recently taken to sharing videos showcasing themselves cutting open aloe vera leaves, scooping out its gel inside, and whisking it into an ingenious natural hair mask that they claim can ease dandruff, moisturize dry locks, and strengthen strength.

Mix three tablespoons of aloe vera gel with one egg for an easy and effective hair mask, applying it directly onto your scalp and hair before covering with a shower cap and leaving to sit for 30 minutes before washing and drying as usual. Do this three times every month for shiny, luscious locks or add apple cider vinegar for extra hydration and anti-dandruff benefits.

3. Olive Oil

Olive oil can be an ideal remedy for damaged hair, with its abundance of vitamin E, polyphenols and oleuropein providing nourishment to each strand, as well as helping promote healthy hair growth while combatting dandruff.

It contains monounsaturated fats that can penetrate deep into your strands to add more moisture and improve its condition. You can use it alone or combine it with other ingredients for even greater effectiveness.

If you are suffering from dandruff or scalp irritation, tea tree oil can help relieve these symptoms. Or if your color treated hair has become dry and dull, egg contains protein to strengthen it further.

Apply this easy recipe for an effortless hair mask! Extra virgin olive oil boasts high levels of antioxidants to provide additional benefits; avocado offers hydration while improving appearance; eggs and honey help strengthen them further.

4. Honey

Honey is an effective natural humectant that draws in and retains moisture molecules to the hair shaft, while simultaneously acting as an emollient and soothing the scalp.

Honey combined with other ingredients such as olive oil can add additional conditioning benefits. For instance, Garnier Whole Blends Honey Treasures Mask uses honey with royal jelly and propolis for an intensive deep conditioning treatment, while SheaMoisture Manuka Honey & Mafura Oil Intensive Hydration Hair Masque helps hydrate to reduce frizz and breakage.

Gisou’s Mirsalehi Honey Infused Hair Conditioner can also provide nourishment that reduces fading while locking in nutrients for stronger resilience against damage – all free from sulfates, parabens and phthalates!https://www.youtube.com/embed/mIJK-7kBC8E
