Who among us does not dream of a luxurious shock of hair that would develop at every breeze blow? Which would attract the eye, and not only women who envy your "happiness", but also men. And you know, when asking: "What is your ideal woman?", Almost 95% of the men answered that they like it when a woman has long, thick, slightly curly hair. By the way, they did not show such unanimity in the size of their breasts, or in the desired body volumes. And this means what? This means that by aligning our hair, we will go one step closer to the ideal, or one step ahead of it, this very ideal, ahead of us.
But what if all efforts are in vain? Naturally, you follow your hair like any normal woman. I tried already a lot of newfangled advertised shampoos and balms, masks for hair and conditioners, balms and rinsers. And there are no visible improvements. This is not the worst option. It happens that you are getting the opposite result. Then it's time to ask for help to the old proven folk methods of hair care, such as gelatin masks for hair. Masks for hair with gelatin are used to give hair a healthy shine and strength. The thing is that gelatin is obtained from connective tissue, or rather from its protein - collagen. Gelatin is used not only in folk methods for hair care, but also in professional cosmetology. Because the protein contained in it helps to improve the condition of both hair and skin. Gelatin has a positive effect on the growth and density of hair, and all because it is a natural source of the ingredients necessary for the creation of keratin (it is the protein from which the hair consists). In addition, gelatin contains sodium, magnesium, potassium and iron.
There are a lot of various recipes for gelatin masks for hair. From the simplest, consisting only of water and gelatin, to those that include a mass of components.
The most simple mask for hair with gelatin
It will need only 7 grams of gelatin and 2 glasses of water. Gelatin first dissolves in one glass of warm water, and after complete dissolution in the mass is added another glass of liquid. The main thing in the preparation of this mask is to ensure that no lumps are formed. Apply mask on hair for 20 minutes, then wash the head in the usual way.
Mask for hair with gelatin, yolk and onion juice
For this mask, you need to prepare one tablespoon of gelatin and a regular hair shampoo, one yolk and four tablespoons of juice from onions (can be replaced with vinegar or lemon juice).
Dissolve gelatin in a small amount of warm water. When it has dissolved completely, add all the remaining ingredients and mix. The mixture is applied to damp hair and, to accelerate the reaction, cover the head with a plastic bag or film and wrap it with a towel.
Gelatin mask for stimulating hair growth
You will need one yolk, one teaspoon of colorless henna and dry mustard, a teaspoon of gelatin and 2 tablespoons of warm water (for gelatin swelling).
All components are thoroughly mixed for a homogeneous mass, and we apply for the entire length of the hair. We keep the mask for 30 minutes and wash it off with warm water without shampoo.
All the beauty of gelatinous hair masks is that the results are visible even at the first use. You will notice the changes that have occurred already at the stage of washing off the mask from the hair.
And if you use not water to dissolve gelatin, but a decoction of chamomile or burdock - the mask will be doubly more useful.
