One of the peskiest hair problems is perhaps split ends. Split ends make the hair look terrible and are a nuisance as they give an overall damaged and rough appearance to the hair. There are a number of reasons why split ends happen including brushing wet hair, excessive use of hot styling tools, chemical filled products, exposure to the sun and continued use of hair styling products.

At the end of the day one feels that there is no other cure for split ends than to get them professionally removed from a salon or just chop off your hair, both which may be heavy on the pocket as well as the heart as one cannot easily part from long and beautiful hair.

One of the best remedies around for split ends is a DIY mask which is filled with nutrition and is good enough to eat! The avocado-oil-egg mask works wonders on split ends and regular use helps you get rid of the troublesome split ends in no time.

Avocado has natural moisturizing and nourishing elements that keep the hair healthy, strong and glossy and its fatty acids and Vitamin E absorb into the scalp, improving the overall hair and scalp health. The egg in this mask serves as protein and improves the texture of the hair, while oils help stimulate hair growth and help in getting rid of other hair problems including dandruff, loss of volume and dry and frizzy hair.

So lets have a look how to make this amazing DIY Hair Mask for Split Ends:

Ingredients:

1 medium avocado
1 egg
1 tablespoon castor oil
5 drops essential oil

Method:

In a bowl combine all the ingredients well until a smooth paste is formed.

How to Apply:

Apply the mask on damp hair. Start applying from the scalp, massaging well into the roots and going down the length of the hair. Clip hair together on top of the head and cover with a shower cap, leaving the mask on for 45 minutes. Wash off with water (not warm water) then use a mild shampoo. Use this mask once a week for beautiful, healthy, shiny and split-ends free hair.
