6 DIY Homemade Hair Conditioners For Damaged Hair

What do you call a proper hair care routine? Well, it includes oiling, shampooing, and conditioning the hair at least once a week. The use of a suitable conditioner is a must for those who have common hair problems like dry, frizzy, spilled-ends-laden hair. Conditioning is a method that helps in keeping your hair smooth, shiny, and hydrated!

Markets are filled with beauty brands offering conditioners that may provide immediate effects like smooth hair or hair smelling like flowers. But, most of these conditioners have chemicals and may not be good for regular or prolonged usage.
