Hair Treatment for Colored or Severely Damaged Hair

You're looking for a DIY hair treatment formula for colored or severely damaged hair that shows results after the first use. We understand that staff previously recommended the forum thread topic7772.html, which should provide additional useful information and example formulas.

For making your own hair treatment at home, popular and effective ingredients for restoring damaged hair include:

• Keratin: This protein is a major component of hair. Adding keratin helps rebuild the damaged hair structure, making hair stronger, less prone to breakage, and more elastic. It's available in various forms, such as Pure Keratin™ or Hydrolyzed Keratin (Liquid, Deodorized), which are easy to use and can be mixed into hair treatments or masks.
• Natural Oils: Such as Argan Oil or Argan Hair Oil, are rich in beneficial fatty acids that deeply moisturize dry and damaged hair, leaving it soft, shiny, and less frizzy.
• Shea Butter: Like Shea Butter (Ultra Soft) or Shea Butter (Melt, Liquid Form in Room Temperature), is an excellent moisturizer. It helps coat and nourish dry, brittle hair, making it smooth and manageable.

Simple DIY Treatment Ideas:

You can try combining these ingredients to create simple hair treatments:

1. Intensive Treatment: Mix Hydrolyzed Keratin (Liquid, Deodorized) with a small amount of Argan Oil or Shea Butter (in a suitable ratio for application, e.g., start with Keratin 2-4% mixed with the desired amount of Argan Oil or Shea Butter for a richer texture). Apply to clean, damp hair, focusing on damaged ends. Leave on for about 15-30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
2. Hair Oil Treatment: Use Argan Oil or Argan Hair Oil as a pre-shampoo treatment by applying it generously to hair about 30 minutes before washing, or use a small amount on the ends of your hair after washing to reduce dryness and add shine.

Choosing quality ingredients suitable for your hair type will help you see better results. We recommend reviewing the details of each product to understand its usage and recommended concentration.
