try putting some mayonnaise on your hair 30 minutes before taking a bath. that's what my friend beautician told me. aside from that, he also told me that eggs could also help, but i prefer using the mayo though. or apply some hot oil or simply the conditioner to help your hair become smoother

I've heard that mayo and eggs are really good for your hair too, but I always thought it sounded to messy! I've tried olive oil before and that worked really well, but again it was so messy! Plus I didn't like the smell that lingered afterwards. I think I'll stick to store bought conditioning treatments for now! Lush do one called "Jasmin and Henna Fluff-eaze" that's lovely.

Mayonnaise really works. It did wonders for my hair. :) But use it once in a week and not to often else it'll end up making your scalp very oily.

You should choose a good quality conditioner for starters. I think it's worth paying a bit more for a product that works really well. The other thing you can do is always use cold water to rinse out your conditioner. It closes the pores in your hair to seal in the nutrients and makes your hair shine. Lastly, never use a 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner, always use them separately - it's much better for your hair. Hope that helps!

I recently started using a tablespoon of baking soda in couple cups of water as shampoo. I use vinegar and water to de-tangle my hair somewhat and make it feel nice. My hair is shinier and softer than it's ever been in my 54 years! Try this--it's incredibly cheap and very good for your hair.

Hi roopmoney. I suggest that you use a conditioner. And don't shampoo your hair everyday. And if you do use shampoo, put an amount of water and dilute it there. Some shampoos are very strong. It washes away natural oils in our scalp that's the reason why our hair gets rough.

Go to saloon to trim your hair a about in the middle of your neck. 2. Buy 100 ml of creamsilk conditioner. 3. Monday to friday use shampoo every other day, then on week end 4. every Sunday ( you can choose sat or sunday)on your free time wash your hair with water then out 20 ml of conditioner to your hair when you spread it all wrap your hair with plastic hair cover for 1 hour 5. then rinse with water and drry it towel then comb it 6. you will repaet the procedure on the next sunday Do the procedure for 6 months, when your hair grow atleast add extra 10 ml. see the difference after six months you can use 1 sachet of conditioner every other day . see the difference after 1 year...
