Yes, you can mix aloe vera and lemon for hair care! Watch your hair become beautiful and luscious naturally!
Oily hair, thinning strands and receding edges…all these hair problems can make you go into an emotional breakdown. But thankfully, no one needs to suffer for long when there are ingredients from Nature that help combat these problems! One of the best remedies for oily hair and hair fall is none other than Aloe Vera!
Recently, I shared a recipe for Aloe Vera and Coconut Oil Hair Growth Magic and it really works in restoring your hair back to its original glory – with consistent use of course! Today I want to share an aloe vera and lemon mix for hair. Here are its benefits:
- Reduces oily scalp & hair
- Gets rid of dandruff
- Stimulates hair growth
- Nourish the hair follicles
- Strengthen hair
How Aloe Vera and Lemon Help Hair
Aloe vera is nourishing for hair since it contains a lot of nutrients including B-vitamins, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, folic acid, amino acids, glucomannans, amino acids, lipids, sterols and more. It also contains plant enzymes such as proteolytic enzyme that cleanses the scalp, reduces excess oils in the hair follicles and strands and helps detox hair.
Lemon is a natural astringent. It draws out oiliness from hair follicles and on the hair strands, leaving them excess oil-free. It also makes hair shiny and lustrous! Lemon also busts dandruff and fights scalp acne!
