We all dream of healthy and beautiful hair that is long and shiny. But, unfortunately not all of us are lucky enough to have that naturally. We do everything possible to achieve that look but again, whether it works or not is not in our hands. Apparently we end up using a lot of shampoos, hair styling products, creams and colors etc. on our hair. At times it suits us and at times we just end up harming our hair by the strong chemicals in these products.
So, what could be the solution? These days the beauty clinics and salons are all vouching over the natural or organic products. “Go Green!” is the new trend. And why not? these natural products do not have any side effects. It may or may not have magical effect on your hair, but at the same time there won’t be any side effects and it will be a win win situation if it works exactly the way it promised.
We all know flowers are an epitome of beauty and elegance. But, very few are aware that these flowers that look so beautiful are also very useful. There are many flowers that can be used for hair care and maintenance.
We will be talking about some such flowers and how to use them for your hair:

How to use: There are two ways in which this flower can be used on your hair;
- Make a paste of the flowers and add coconut oil and apply to the hair. Rinse with water after some time.
- Boil the flowers in coconut oil, after which you need to filter the solution and apply it on your hair before washing them.
- Boil the flowers and the leaves and leave the solution overnight. Filter this mixture and apply it on your hair after the wash as a leave in solution. Do not wash this solution after application.

How to use: Lavender oil is used on the hair in the following ways for better impact:
