Take care of your hair during the cold period! Make a hair mask with a nourishing oil.

The more well-known oils for hair are, for example, Argan oil, Jojoba oil, Coconut oil, Castor oil, Rosehip oil and Avocado oil, Carrot oil and Apricot kernel oil. Less known are Baobab oil, Marula oil, Moringa oil and Camellia oil. All are excellent as hair oils.

How do you do it?

It is very beneficial for the scalp and hair with warm oils. You simply heat up any oil carefully on very low heat in a saucepan.Then make a warm, lovely hair mask. Let it sit for 30 minutes, then wash your hair with a mild, natural shampoo/conditioner. Apply shampoo first – then water so the oil comes off more easily. Camellia oil is also an excellent oil to use directly in the hair as it is a "dry" oil and doesn't make the hair too greasy. If you want to take it a step further, you can add herbs, herbal teas or essential oils. Various examples:

To strengthen hair: chamomile, nettle, horsetail or burdock. To cleanse hair: for example, for scalp problems: rosemary, parsley, sage or witch hazel. To stimulate hair growth: peppermint, parsley, sage, chamomile, ginger and cinnamon. Suitable for most: calendula, chamomile, lavender, dried rose petals.
