If your hair is feeling rough and frizzy right now, please raise your hands. Most shampoos out there have sulfates that with their detergent-like properties strip away moisture, leaving them rough, frizzy, and dry. Ideally, follow the shampoo routine with a conditioner. Whether you have super thick and curly, or very fine and straight hair, you cannot get away with just cleaning your hair with shampoo, conditioning is just as important. Do not like the idea of coating hair with chemical-laden conditioners? Don’t worry, here are a homemade hair conditioners that will help you to hydrate, rejuvenate and revitalize your hair without burning a hole in your pocket.

Rinse thoroughly with tap water and then wash off with a mild shampoo. This conditioner improves the manageability of hair and gives you the moisturizing benefits.
2. Honey Conditioner: Take half cup honey, one and half cups water, half cup organic coconut milk and 1 tablespoon virgin coconut oil. Blend the ingredients thoroughly in a food processor or blender so that all the ingredients are mixed well.
