Dry hair is usually a result of over-shampooing, swimming, chlorinated water, hair perms or dying the hair. There is a simple home remedy for this and that is Just Eggs!! Egg white is made of concentrated proteins and when applied to hair can act as a very good conditioner. It can also solve dandruff problems due to dry scalp.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Egg whites
  • Brush applicator
  1. Step 1

    Separate egg whites and yolk. (2 large eggs for long hair and 1 for short hair.)

  2. Step 2

    Separate hair into locks

  3. Step 3

    Use hand or a brush to generously apply egg whites to hair beginning from scalp and ending at the hair tips.

  4. Step 4

    Leave hair to dry for 30 minutes and wash it off with luke warm water.(Do not take a cold or a very hot shower)

  5. Step 5

    Optional: If you want natural wavy hair, after applying the egg whites twist your hair (all the hair) and pin it up. Wait for 30 minutes and wash it off with luke warm water

  6. Step 6

    Treat your hair with egg whites twice a week. You will start seeing results in 2-3 weeks.
