Milk is a natural beauty product. Many people believe that milk contains many natural straightening ingredients that are fast and effective. Maybe even in your refrigerator right now there is milk. So, why not give it a try? In addition to straightening hair, the use of milk can also save costs and maintain healthy hair. To get started, read step 1 in the following guide!
Step
Step 1. Put 80 ml of milk in a spray bottle
You can use any type of (fresh) milk. However, the thicker the milk, the better the results. Although it is still questionable, some people believe that coconut milk can make hair straighter.
- If you are using coconut milk, also add the juice of half a lemon. Place the mixture in the refrigerator for an hour until cream forms on the top. The cream is a substance that must be applied to the hair. Follow the rest of the guide as usual.
- You can also add a little honey, strawberries, or bananas to the mixture. Stir until smooth. Honey or fruit will make hair more moist and fragrant.
- Powdered milk is a less expensive and less stale option.
Step 2. Spray the milk all over your hair
It's best to spray milk when your hair is dry or damp. Here are a few things to watch out for:
- Wet all sections of hair thoroughly. This is so that the hair can be completely straight.
- Spray the milk from the roots to the tips of the hair. Make sure that the milk is sprayed evenly on the hair.
- Spray the milk on the top of the head. Then, bend down and squirt milk from the bottom. Then, spray the milk on the middle and sides, especially if you have thick hair.
Step 3. Trim your hair with a wide-toothed comb
This is so that the hair is not left tangled and smelly.
Step 4. Massage your scalp regularly and leave it on for 20 minutes
Milk takes time before it is absorbed by the hair and makes it straight. While you're at it, you can also exfoliate, paint your toenails, or shave your toes.
Step 5. Rinse hair and clean with shampoo and conditioner
Rinse your hair a little longer than you normally would so your hair doesn't smell like stale milk. Then, wash your hair according to your routine.
Step 6. Let the hair dry
This method may work well for straightening wavy hair, but not for frizzy and frizzy hair. However, milk will still make your hair healthy and reduce frizz.
Tips
