We are all used to buy cosmetic products for treating hair issues and improving the hair health.
However, these products and treatments are expensive, full of chemicals, and provide only temporary results. Instead of using artificial products, you should use a simple and safe ingredient we all have in our homes- salt.
Using salt for the hair is simply amazing. It will improve your hair health, stimulate hair growth, and mend some scalp issues.
Moreover, salt removes the dead skin cells by exfoliating the skin, moisturizes the skin, eliminates dandruff, and removes the excess oil from the hair.
USE SALT AS A SKIN PRODUCT:
Face mask
This is a very beneficial face mask for people that are having problems with their sensitive and easily irritable skin, because this mask will help you regulate the oil secretion and it will also moisturize your skin.
To prepare it, just mix 4 teaspoons of raw honey with two teaspoons of sea salt. Apply this mask on your dry skin, leave it there for 15 minutes and then rinse it off with water.
Softening body scrub
To prepare it mix some sea salt with two teaspoons of coconut oil. Then scrub your body with it, in order to remove the dead cells from your skin. After that, just wash it off with a shower gel.
Facial toner
This natural facial toner cleanses the skin pores by entering deeply in the skin. It also prevents bacteria and regulates its oil production. To prepare it, just add one teaspoon of sea salt to 4 oz. of warm water. Then transfer the mixture in a spray bottle and spray it on your dry skin.
USE SEA SALT TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF YOUR HAIR
Hair growth
If you are having some hair loss problems, you will be relieved to hear that salt can stimulate the growth of your hair.
When you wash your hair, you need to massage your scalp with salt for 15 minutes. After you are done with the massage, rinse the salt off with water. Repeat this procedure two times a week for two months.
Anti-oily hair
The excessive activity of the sebaceous glands, result in oily hair. To fix this problem, add three tablespoons of salt in your shampoo and wash your hair with this combination. After just a few treatments, you will notice that your hair is shiny again, and this time it is not excessively oily.
Anti-dandruff treatment
Because salt boosts circulation, it is very efficient in removing dandruff, which is a layer of dead skin cells on your scalp.
To get rid of this problem, divide your hair into two sections and then massage your scalp with the help of two teaspoons of salt for around ten minutes and then rinse.
