"Welcome back. My name is Sylvia Russell and today we're going to show you how to make a homemade hair treatment. Now a lot of you at home don't go to the salon and you come up with your own remedies. So we have a few to share with you today. Number one on our list is beer, lemon and vinegar. Now you say beer, lemon and vinegar, why? Well beer is a wheat and it's a protein, lemon is an astringent and will help seal the cuticle, and vinegar will deep clean. So mix all these up in a bowl, put them on, leave them on for ten to fifteen minutes, rinse very well, follow up with a shampoo. It will give you beautiful, shiny hair. It'll even seal up those cuticles that are opened up. Next on our list, take a little baking soda, add it into your shampoo. This will help to deep clean your hair but it will also deep clean your scalp. If you have dry, flaky scalp, that baking soda's going to get in there, it's going to foam up and it's going to create a great, great cleanser for the scalp. Last but not least, eggs and honey. Again, eggs are protein. Honey is also going to act as a mask and seal in that moisture into the hair follicle. So now we've got all of our remedies, go home, go into the kitchen, wherever you can go, get with a girlfriend and have a spa day. Do some home remedies. It costs you nothing. Grab everything out on the counters and go to work. This is how you can create a home treatment for your hair. My name is Sylvia Russell, see you next time."
