Say goodbye to falling hair. There is a way to strengthen it. Just add a little lemon juice to your shampoo. After drying, your hair will look straight out of an advertisement!

Hair care is more complicated than it might seem. It should be primarily adapted to the porosity of the hair. We distinguish between low porosity hair (straight), medium porosity hair (slightly wavy), and high porosity hair (curly or heavily wavy).

Many people wonder how to speed up hair growth with home methods. There is a simple trick that doesn't require using specialized products from the drugstore. Just use a product that can be found in the kitchen.

Lemon juice works not only for blondes

It's about lemon juice. Thanks to its high dose of vitamin C, it strengthens and stimulates hair growth. It is especially recommended for people who struggle with excessive hair loss. Lemon juice smooths hair closes cuticles and prevents split ends. This ingredient will also lighten blonde strands, giving your hair a sun-kissed look. If you want a subtle effect, try this trick.

What about flat hair?

For those with oily or flat hair, we recommend baking soda. It lightens the scalp, soothes itching and irritation, and increases hair volume. Combine a tablespoon of baking soda with a portion of shampoo, apply the mixture to wet hair, wash thoroughly, and then rinse.

Afterward, apply your favorite conditioner and dry your hair. However, remember that the baking soda trick will only work with a healthy scalp. In the case of irritation, baking soda can exacerbate the symptoms.

Honey also comes to the rescue

Hair can dry out in hot weather due to UV radiation and hot air. To nourish it, you don't need expensive masks or conditioners. Just use honey. Add two teaspoons of honey to your shampoo and mix thoroughly. Use this mixture throughout the summer. You will quickly notice the effects. Your hair will be soft and moisturized.
