We all strive for beautiful, healthy hair and for that hair masks are a must. Whether you have dry, oily, straight or even curly hair, these masks help provide much needed moisture and nutrients to the hair that are lost due to seasonal wear and tear. Especially those who get their hair colored or get involved in frequent heating activities, must use a hair mask regularly. There are various hair masks available in the market but the D-I-Y homemade hair masks are just unmatchable since they do not have any side-effects due to chemicals.

You can easily buy yogurt and aloe vera gel from the market or even better, extract the gel from aloe vera leaves at home. Mix the ingredients and apply from scalp to ends. Let it dry for 20-30 mins.

Of course, as the name suggests, for the egg hair mask we need an egg! Duh! And some olive oil to add to it. Eggs are a good source of protein that our hair needs. As for olive oil, it nourishes the hair and makes it soft. Now, blend them well and make sure to apply this hair mask on clean hair. Apply the mix and leave it for 15-20 mins. Do not let it dry completely otherwise it becomes difficult to remove the mask. After that, shampoo your hair with cold water. Do it once a week for at least a month to see the results. It works!

In other words whether you eat bananas or just apply them it will have great benefits. Do this twice a week for at least a month or two to see real results.
