Hair care secret: Add this standard kitchen product for instant volume

Hair care is not as simple as it seems. Our obsession with hair care has shown that we know little about hair. Only recently did we learn that hair can be low, medium, or high porosity.

Cosmetics should be chosen according to hair porosity. Although there is a wide variety of products, the market lacks shampoos for those with flat hair. It turns out there is a way to give it volume. You don’t need mousse, powders, or specialized sprays. You need one product you probably already have in your kitchen cabinet.

Nowadays, the choice of hair care products can be overwhelming. We can choose from hundreds of natural, specialized, or medical shampoos that cater to specific scalp needs. Unfortunately, they are not the cheapest, as a bottle of such shampoo costs $5 to even $20.

If you have oily or flat hair, try using baking soda. Sodium bicarbonate is commonly used in cosmetology. In small concentrations, it lightens and deeply cleanses the skin, adding volume to the hair.

How do you use it to wash your hair? It's straightforward. Add a tablespoon of baking soda to your regular shampoo, then thoroughly mix both products. Apply the mixture to wet hair and wash it thoroughly, massaging the scalp. Rinse it after a minute, apply conditioner, and dry your hair. Remember, however, that this method will only work on a healthy scalp. For any dryness, irritation, or allergy, baking soda could only aggravate these conditions.

Hair becomes exceptionally prone to drying out when the temperature exceeds 77 degrees Fahrenheit. This is due to intense UV radiation and hot air. How to deeply nourish it? You don't need expensive masks or sprays. If you prefer natural care, reach for a product that has saved women's skin and hair for years. This product is honey. Add two teaspoons of melted honey to your shampoo, then thoroughly mix. Use the shampoo throughout the summer, and your hair will become soft, smooth, and moisturized.
