Is Aloe Vera Food for Your Hair? We Think So!
Mikey MoranFor as long as I can remember, aloe vera has been a critical product in just about everything.
If IÂ had a cut, my mom would immediately suggest putting some aloe vera onto it.
Whenever I was having skincare issues, I whip up a quick mask and wait for it to work wonders on my skin.
Aloe vera has proven to be a staple product thatâs essential for just about everything, especially hair bundles. But how?
Well, for starters, it strengthens the hair in every way. When I first started using it, I noticed such a difference in my hair. â¤ď¸âđĽ
My hair was softer, and my scalp was less itchy. For a long time, Iâve suffered from different scalp issues, and aloe vera has helped me in many ways.
If youâve used aloe vera, you know all how great it is!
However, if youâve never used it before, especially for hair, then read this and get into all the reasons why you should start using it!
Many people talk about their love of aloe vera because of all the benefits. Letâs get into all the great ways to use aloe vera and glow!
Before You Try!
Of course, before you try a new product, itâs essential to do a patch test.
Check to see if youâre allergic to it.
To do a patch test, youâll take some aloe vera and apply it to your hand. Let it sit for about 10-20 minutes. If you notice any irritation, youâre most likely allergic to it.
Also, if you have any conditions with your scalp or hair, itâs essential to visit a dermatologist.
A dermatologist will be able to let you know what will work for you and whether aloe vera is the best natural option for you!
Donât be afraid to ask all the necessary questions!
If you have any scalp problem get Medical Wigs for a more smooth installation.
The Benefits!
Aloe vera has plenty of benefits, especially when it comes to overall beauty.
I love to use aloe vera as a skin care mask when my face is breaking out or reacting to the heat.
When it comes to hair, there are many benefits, such as deep cleaning, strengthening, and, supposedly, hair growth.
Aloe vera is also helpful for anyone dealing with an itchy scalp.
Weâll get into each benefit and why you may need to switch over to using aloe vera for your hair needs!
Hair Growth
Aloe vera has been said to increase blood circulation wherever itâs applied.
Thatâs why itâs so great at healing wounds and scars. Using aloe vera on your scalp causes the blood flow to increase.
I like to use it as a conditioner. The great thing about it is that it doesnât need to be mixed with anything to be used.
You lather it right on after shampooing. Itâs so amazing and versatile. When using it, it will be slimy and weird, but donât be alarmed!
Itâs supposed to feel that way. There are plenty of people who claim that aloe vera makes hair grow faster, but thereâs no clinical evidence to showcase that.
As of right now, thereâs only slight evidence that it slows down hair breakage. So, if you notice that your hair is breaking off, use some of it and watch your hair change!
Aloe Vera Strengthens
Aloe vera contains a lot of vitamins, such as vitamins A, E, and C.
These vitamins contribute to the repair process. As we mentioned before, it is excellent for healing wounds.
Just like itâs excellent for healing wounds, itâs fantastic for preparing damaged hair.
It promotes healthy cell growth, as well as shiny hair. Aloe vera also contains vitamin b-12, which prevents your hair from falling out.
Also, if you have sun damage to your hair, this might work as well.
Apply some of it to your hair before spending time in the sun.
For example, if youâre going to the beach or lounging by the pool, a little aloe vera will be amazing for the protection of your hair. Make your gel, or lather it right on.
Deep Cleaning
Aloe vera is impressive for deep cleaning the hair.
Whenever I use shampoo, I notice that my hair feels dry and weak afterward.
Without a proper conditioner, I would be stuck with dry, brittle hair.
It doesnât only work as a conditioner but also as a deep cleansing product. It is completely natural, so you donât have to worry about anything that will damage your hair.
It cleans and conditions simultaneously, which makes it a two-in-one product!
Deep cleaning is essential to the health of your hair.
Although it is terrific for cleaning, you might want to use another product to cleanse your hair alongside it.
I use a natural shampoo and put some gel in it to ensure that my hair gets all the nutrients it needs.
When Iâm done washing day, my hair feels stronger and softer. I love using it for my hair when I notice that my hair needs some love.
Aloe vera is the best ingredient for anyone who needs some moisture as well.
Donât be afraid to lather as much as you need!
Speaking of moisture, Deep Wave Wigs can provide the wet look we all love.
Aloe Vera Heaven
All in all, aloe vera is hugely beneficial to hair.
Whether you need a quick condition, a sun protectant, hydrating treatment, or a deep cleaning, it can do it all.
Also, since it doesnât need to be added to anything to be useful, you can use it as is.
I love to add it to my hair products, especially when I make my deep conditioners. đ§´
Donât be afraid to try new things and mix them up. It can be useful for just about anything, and an added benefit is that itâs cheap.
You can pick it up at any local market. Try some of it today, and let us know how you like it!
