Post Holi Hair care: Quick and Easy homemade hair masks

After the colourful celebrations of Holi, many of us find ourselves struggling to remove the stubborn colours from our hair.

However, using harsh shampoos and hair products in an attempt to get rid of the colour often leads to further damage. However, there are simple and safe homemade remedies that can effectively remove the colour without causing harm to your hair and scalp.

If your hair is stained with stubborn colours or excessive gulal, avoid repeatedly shampooing your hair as it can further strip away the colour and cause dryness. Instead, opt for a gentle homemade hair mask that can effectively remove the colour without stripping away the natural oils from your scalp.

Home made masks for removing Holi colours

1. Curd and gram flour mask: Curd helps to moisturize and nourish the hair while gram flour acts as a natural cleanser, effectively removing the colour without stripping away the natural oils from your scalp. After applying the hair mask, leave it on for about 20-30 minutes to allow it to work its magic. Then, rinse it off thoroughly with lukewarm water. Avoid using hot water as it can strip away the natural oils from your hair, leaving it dry and brittle.
2. Lemon juice and coconut oil mask: A mixture of lemon juice and coconut oil can help to lighten the colour and restore the natural shine of your hair. Similarly, a paste made from baking soda and water can help to gently exfoliate the scalp and remove any stubborn colour particles.
