In the excitement of finally being able to see, smell, and especially, get into the sea and take long walks on the beach, we sometimes forget to take the proper precautions, especially when it comes to our hair. As a result, our hair may feel brittle, dry, and broken due to saltwater, humid breeze, and sun exposure. But there are natural and very simple ways to repair the damage that your beach trip has left on your mane, and here are some.Yogurt and oil maskThe combination of yogurt and oil is a very effective treatment for dry hair. To try this mask, mix half a cup of yogurt with two tablespoons of olive oil and apply it to clean hair. Cover your hair with plastic or a shower cap and let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes. After that, rinse your hair well with warm water.Coconut oilHeat a few tablespoons of coconut, almond, or argan oil, and with your fingertips, massage the scalp, the length, and the ends of your hair. Tie it up and wrap it with a warm, damp towel for 30 minutes. Then wash your hair to remove the oil with shampoo and warm water. These types of thick oils are rich in nutrients that help soften and repair the hair.Avocado pasteAvocado is rich in vitamins A and E, minerals, and saturated fats, and all these nutrients are good for dry hair, strengthening and hydrating it. For this natural remedy, mash an avocado and mix it with an egg. Apply the mixture to your hair and let it sit for 20 minutes. After that, rinse and wash your hair several times.
