Your hair is the crown you wear and it is imperative to keep those tresses shiny and lustrous. With environment stressors, heat styling and stress, using chemical based products can further damage your hair. Speaking from personal experience, going natural is the answer.  A natural hair care routine is about taking a holistic approach and using all-natural ingredients to nourish the hair.  In my experience, the right natural hair regimen for beginners is all about creating balance.

Adopting natural hair care products into your routine is not only good for the environment but a safer choice for your skin and body. With less irritation and more nourishing nutrients, organic is the way to go for a happy and healthy scalp! 

As you embark on this natural hair care journey, you’ll realise that the small changes you make to your hair routine now, will make a huge difference in the long run. So, here’s the ultimate all-organic hair care guide decoded just for you.

• Hot Oil Massage 
  

  An age-old remedy that has stood the test of time, oiling does wonders for your scalp. Massaging your hair with hot oil helps stimulate blood flow, repairs split ends, and softens the hair. A personal recommendation of mine would be the Coco Soul Extra Virgin Coconut Hair Oil that’s enriched with pure coconut, almond oil, jojoba oil, and vitamin E for nourishment and hair growth. Amongst other natural hair care steps, oiling is the most efficient way of transitioning into nature-backed hair care. 
  

• Organic Hair Mask 
  

  Our grandmas were right when they said at-home hair care is the way to go. Instead of investing in hair masks loaded with chemicals, why not use a deep nourishment mask created with unadulterated organic ingredients? To make your own hair mask, mix two teaspoons of fresh aloe vera gel with three teaspoons of coconut oil and one teaspoon of honey. Massage this well into the scalp, leave on for 30 minutes and wash it off using a sulphate-free shampoo.  
  
  

• Say Yes To Onions
  

  Onion juice is proven to be packed with nutrients, antibacterial and antifungal properties that help in hair growth and protect hair from breakage. Onions are also high in antioxidants, which prevent premature greying of hair. Just squeeze the juice of three onions and apply it all over your scalp just before showering. Leave it on for five minutes and rinse off, removing any remnants left. 
  
  

• Balance Your Diet 
  

  Any natural hair regimen for beginners will only be effective when you consume foods that make your gut and hair happy. Protein is what enriches and structures your hair. The hair follicle itself is made up of protein that tends to fade away with pollution, heat-styling, and stress. Indulge yourself in a diet rich in zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and iron for strong and healthy hair, inside and out. Here is a list of vitamin rich foods for hair growth.
