Give your mane more volume with this natural recipe proposed by Aroma-Zone in the new book “Natural hair, 100 care and color recipes” (Hachette editions).
Thin, soft, your hair gives you a hard time. To reconcile them with volume, a few nudges exist such as a good hair massage (anti-stress in addition), appropriate food supplements (sulfur amino acid), or a more degraded adapted cut. On the care side, review your shampoos to avoid 2 in 1 that weigh down the hair. On the other hand dry shampoo can be a trick between two shampoos to give loft to your sleepy hair. And if it is natural and done yourself, it is even better!
This DIY care offered by Aroma-Zone has more than one advantage: it allows you to space your shampoos while redensifying the hair thanks to oats, a fortifying, nourishing and volumizing active ingredient. It absorbs excess sebum and cleanses your hair without wetting them, respecting the scalp with its natural ingredients.
