ReplyDeletehibiscus leaves and flowers soaked in oil and used for hair massage has done wonders to my hair.
ReplyDeleteNice article about hair loss. I really found your articles informative and beneficial.
ReplyDelete# Another beauty treatment that can be done with lemons is a hair tonic. Massage some lemon juice onto hair and leave it for a while before rinsing. Again, do not do this before going in the sun. This treatment is especially good for greasy hair as it will regulate the sebaceous glands which produce oil and make the hair shine and prevent dandruff.
