How to get really smooth hair

We often look at the celebrities and wonder how their hair looks so perfect, no frizz, no knots, lies smoothly on their back while it gleams with health.

Oh, we so wish if we could have that hair and flaunt it wherever we go, just like the celebs do! The secret to soft and smooth hair not only lies on its external looks but also on how well it is maintained from the inside. Your intake plays a major role on your skin and hair. With balanced meals and sufficient amount of minerals and vitamins in your diet, you can have a healthy body and lustrous locks.

However we cannot ignore the external elements that damage our hair, like pollution, weather conditions and harmful sun rays and not to mention the hectic lifestyle we follow along with the stress level at work place. These factors considerably affect the quality of your hair no matter how well you eat.

If you are worried about your dull and dry hair, here are a few effective ways on how to get really smooth hair. These DIY methods are not just chemical free but cost effective and the ingredients are easily available in your kitchen.

• Mayonnaise Pack for dry and damaged hair: For people tired of dull and damaged locks should try mayonnaise hair pack as it is loaded with antioxidants and rich in amino acids. Combine it with egg and olive oil to add moisture, shine and softness to your hair. Just spray water on your hair so that it gets a little wet, apply mayonnaise just like you apply a conditioner. Wear a shower cap to create a little warmth inside, which will open the pores and helps mayo get inside. Wait for around 45 minutes and later wash it off with a good professional shampoo.
• Egg, Honey and Yoghurt hair pack: The ingredients speak for itself. Loaded with proteins and moisture along with the conditioning property of yoghurt, these ingredients are perfect for smoothing any type of dull or damaged hair. Yoghurt clears the dandruff in your hair too. For oily scalp, mix eggs with 2 tbsp honey and mix it well. Apply this pack on your hair strands. For dry hair, use yoghurt instead of eggs. Cover it with shower cap and keep it for 45 minutes. Wash it with a good shampoo for well conditioned and shiny locks.
• Aloe Vera pulp for awesome hair: Known as a perfect solution for most beauty related issues, Aloe Vera is loaded with amino acids, high in oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen content with proteolytic enzymes, which can solve several scalp related issues too. It is an amazing natural moisturizer and helps hair growth too. It also keeps scalp infections at bay. For application, cut the pulpy leaves of this plant, slice in two halves and scoop out the pulp. Mash it a bit and apply this thick paste on your semi dry hair and scalp. Take a warm towel and cover your head with it. Just 30 minutes, and wow you can see the magic in your hair. The glossy strands are enough to amaze you!
