Options for using lavender oil for different hair types

In order for the hair to please the hostess with its thickness and shine, it is necessary to provide decent care for them. Lavender oil will help beauties in this. Years of experience with ester show that it is equally suitable for treating different types of hair.

Aroma combing

The simplest and most effective way to use essential oil is aroma combing. This process is as follows:

1. 6-7 drops of lavender extract are evenly applied to the scallop (wood is best).
2. The hair is combed in different directions for 5 minutes, then wait about 10 more minutes - the phytocomponents must have time to penetrate the hair structure.
3. After this time, the head is washed with shampoo.
4. This procedure is carried out 3 times a week.

It is useful to carry out aroma combing with a rich oily composition:

1. K 2 tbsp. l. base (any cosmetic oil heated in a water bath) add 5 drops of lavender oil and mix.
2. Apply the resulting composition to the comb and comb the hair for at least 8 minutes. At the end of the procedure, give the oils time to absorb.
3. Wash your hair with shampoo, then rinse your hair with water at room temperature.
4. Aroma combing with several cosmetic oils will work well with a gentle massage of the scalp in circular motions with your fingertips - but not your nails! This will be a great way to prevent seborrhea and baldness.
5. After several procedures, the condition of the hair damaged by blow-drying, permanent dyeing and perm will noticeably improve.

Cosmetic oil is a natural product obtained from plants and their fruits and used in cosmetology. It can be solid (so-called butter) and liquid.Among the most popular oils are castor, camphor, olive, sea buckthorn, peach, apricot, linseed, etc. They are used as the main element for face and body care. Unlike concentrated essential oils, which can cause burns to the integument, cosmetic oils are absolutely safe in contact with the skin.

For this reason, they are also called basic oils: during procedures, such oils can be used in any volume, adding only a few drops of essential extracts to them to achieve the best result.

Hair rinse with essential oil

Due to the speed and simplicity of the procedure for rinsing hair, it can be called, perhaps, the most uncomplicated way of caring for hair. A lavender oil rinse is perfect for shine-free, unruly and lifeless hair.

We strongly recommend taking note of this method for owners of hair prone to grease, as well as suffering from seborrhea (oily or dry).

To prepare a medicinal rinse, you must:

1. Add 100 g of honey to 1 liter of warm water (fine salt or soda can replace it) and 6-8 drops of lavender extract. Carry out rinsing either after shampooing, or as an independent procedure.
2. The following type of rinsing will help regulate the excessive work of the sebaceous glands: add the juice of 1 lemon and 2 drops of essential lavender oil to 1 liter of non-hot water. After the procedure, it is undesirable to dry your hair with a hairdryer.
3. Just three rinses will return the hair to a healthier look, the hair will be manageable and shiny, and the dandruff will be noticeably less.

Conditioning balm based on lavender extract

The lavender extract-based healing conditioner will be an excellent natural remedy for restoring the structure of damaged hair. When applied to the scalp, the balm will help permanently eliminate itching and dandruff.

It is prepared like this:

1. 1 tsp pour lavender inflorescences with apple cider vinegar (about 1/3 cup). Insist 1 week.
2. Strain the resulting liquid, place in a separate glass container and mix with 600 ml of heated water.
3. Add 2 drops of lavender oil to the composition.
4. Distribute the finished balm over the entire length of the hair immediately after washing.
5. After 8-10 minutes, rinse the conditioner with lukewarm water.

If desired, replace lavender flowers with the same number of linden, chamomile or dry nettle flowers - the effect will remain the same: after a few procedures, dandruff will disappear and the condition of the hair will significantly improve.

Lavender oil hair mask recipes

Masks have always been considered the most effective means of caring for hair. In most cases, the procedure for applying them is standard: the prepared mixture is evenly distributed over the roots and length of the hair, after which, to achieve the best effect, the head is wrapped in a plastic bag or cling film. Throw a towel on top - the "greenhouse" created in this way helps to improve blood circulation in the scalp area and allows active substances to better penetrate the body through the skin.

Mask for dry and damaged hair

The mask for dry hair will have a deeply moisturizing, nourishing effect, leaving behind a pleasant scent.

1. 3 yolks and 3 tbsp. l. Mix any base cosmetic oil with 4-5 drops of essential lavender extract in a glass container.

2. Distribute the mask over the hair and, depending on the degree of damage, hold for at least 30 minutes. until 8 o'clock, leaving overnight.
3. After the procedure, the head must be washed with shampoo.
4. After 2-3 applications of each of these masks, your hair will acquire a healthier appearance, their fragility and section will decrease, and those around you will begin to notice the attractive shine of your curls.

Mask for oily hair

Greasy hair always looks unkempt, and even the most charming girl will not make the proper impression if her hair does not look fresh. That is why one of the most popular types of masks is the anti-oily hair mask.

To 50 ml of the main product (it can be a base oil heated in a water bath, or your favorite balm), 4 drops of lavender oil are added. If desired, the mixture is diluted with citrus oils (orange, bergamot), cypress and juniper.

The composition is applied to the scalp and hair for 35-40 minutes, then washed off with shampoo.

There is another effective recipe for a mask that controls the lipid balance of the scalp. To prepare it you will need:

• 2 yolks;
• 4 pinches of fine salt;
• 2 tbsp. l. honey;
• 8 drops of lavender essential oil.

2. Apply the mask to the roots and distribute over the entire length of the hair, leaving it under cling film for 30 minutes, and wrap the head with a towel on top.

The mask will be warming - mixing sugar with mustard powder gives this effect, so if you feel a burning sensation, you should immediately wash it off and add a smaller amount of sugar (0.25 tsp) the next time you use it. If you have sensitive skin, it is recommended to add less sugar the first time you apply this mask.
3. After 20-25 minutes, wash your hair thoroughly in warm water. You don't need to use shampoo: mustard will cope with cleansing just as well.
4. A mask with mustard, in addition to normalizing the work of the sebaceous glands, will contribute to the early appearance of new hair.
5. In order not to dry the skin, we recommend that you carry out no more than 5 procedures per month, and then take a break for the same period. Regular use of a mask based on mustard powder with the addition of lavender oil will keep your hair fresh, healthy looking, increasing its thickness and strength.

How to use lavender oil in its pure form

It is impossible to use undiluted lavender oil in contact with skin and mucous membranes due to the high concentration of the essential content. That is why it is recommended to add only 4 drops of oil per 1 tsp. means, but no more than 8 drops in the main solution (balm, conditioner or hair mask).

Undiluted liquid can lead to severe burns to the skin of the face and scalp, which will take much longer to fix than to get rid of the original problem.

Essential oil and shampoo: should you mix

Should you mix shampoo with lavender oil? The answer is simple: of course it is. The regular addition of an essential extract to the shampoo will guarantee improved scalp health, dandruff relief and manageable, healthy hair.

4–5 drops of lavender oil are added to half the palm of the shampoo, but it should be noted that this mixture is best used immediately or within 2 hours, otherwise the lavender essential substances will fade away and there will be no benefit from the oil. For the same reason, we do not recommend adding lavender oil to the shampoo bottle.

Duration of the course

The duration of the course of treatment with lavender oil products depends on the degree of hair damage, as well as on the individual shampooing regimen:

1. aroma combing with essential oil is carried out 2-3 times a week;
2. lavender balm should be used with the same frequency;
3. masks for hair should be done no more than 1-2 times a week;
4. curative rinsing can be carried out every day, especially with seborrhea.

The total duration of lavender oil therapy should not exceed 2 months.
