1.EGG For Hair Growth

Eggs are power-packed with proteins, minerals, and B-complex vitamins that are essential hair nutrients. These nutrients, especially biotin and other B-complex vitamins, help curb hair loss by strengthening the roots of your hair. The nutrients also help stimulate new hair growth, adding volume and thickening your hair. The proteins help strengthen your hair while the fats help condition it, improving hair texture.

Eggs are an abundant source of proteins and nutrients that serve as “hair food.” These nutrients help boost the rate at which your hair grows while promoting healthy new growth.

Which Part Of The Egg Is Good For Your Hair?

When talking about which part of the egg is more beneficial for your hair, you need to take your hair type into account. Women with oily hair prefer using the whites while women with dry hair go for the yolks. Here’s why:

White – The white of an egg is the richest source of protein. It also contains minerals such as niacin, riboflavin, magnesium, potassium, and sodium, all of which assist in hair growth. People with oily hair prefer to use just the whites as they help control oil production while nourishing your hair. The white does not condition your hair as much as its yellow counterpart.

Yolk – The yolk is also protein-rich (less than the white) and is an abundant source of B-complex vitamins and folic acid, which are often referred to as “hair food.” The fatty content of the yolk makes it an excellent conditioning ingredient, which is why it is often used by people with dry hair.

Whole – Both the white and the yolk are rich sources of protein; however, the white is more nutritious. Using the whole egg allows your hair to reap the combined benefits of the white and the yolk. This is ideal for women with normal or combination hair.

Hair Mask For Best

• ix 2 to 3 whole eggs with 2 to 3 drops of lemon juice, which helps to reduce the "egg" scent of the mask.
• Beat the mixture until it is frothy.
• Apply to the hair by putting the egg mixture on the hands, and working it into the hair.
• Cover the hair with a shower cap. Leave on for about 20 minutes. During this time, the egg mixture will dry and feel sticky to the touch.
• Rinse off the egg with cold or cool water. Rinsing with hot water can cause the egg to clump in the hair. While this is not a significant problem, it can require several washes to get the egg out.
• Shampoo and condition the hair as normal.
• Repeat the hair treatment once or twice a month.

In addition to using just egg yolks on the hair, some people suggest adding different ingredients into the egg yolk mixture to enhance shine and softness.....
