Hair masks you can make at home

Hair masks are a way of deep conditioning your hair. They are used to repair some hair concerns like dandruff.

They can be bought or made at home. The mask is left on the hair longer than twenty minutes.

They can be made at home from ingredients such as bananas, avocados, honey, or egg yolk.

The benefits of hair masks include extra moisturized hair, reduced hair breakage and damage, a healthier scalp, and shiny softer hair.
