Our hair is made out of protein, so when it becomes dry, damaged, and brittle, it's often do to a lack of protein. While eating a protein-rich diet can help stimulate healthy hair growth, you can also get more immediate results. Using a protein-based hair mask can help nourish and moisturize your hair, so it looks and feel healthier. Best of all, you can make a protein hair mask with natural ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen. A basic egg and yogurt mask or avocado and mayonnaise mask can definitely help, but you can get even more advanced with a gelatin or banana, honey, and coconut oil hair mask. Use one of these masks once a or twice month to get stronger, softer hair that you're proud to show off.
