how to use curd for hair - #36467
I am feeling really frustrated about my hair lately. For the past few months, I've noticed it's been super dry and kinda brittle, like no matter how much conditioner I use, it just looks lifeless. A friend mentioned that using curd for hair could help, but I'm not really sure how to use curd for hair or even if it actually works. Last week, I finally decided to give it a shot! I did a quick search, found some tips, and whipped up this mix with curd, honey, and olive oil. Thought I was onto something great! But when I applied it, it felt really heavy, and I wasn't sure if it was too much. After about 30 minutes, I washed it out, expectin it to transform my hair into this shiny mane, right? But honestly, it’s still pretty dull. Now I'm wondering, how to use curd for hair properly? Like, should I be applying it differently? How often I should do it? Am I missing something that could actually make it work? I feel like a lot of these home remedies sound simpler than they actually are! Any insights would be super helpful, thanks!

Using curd on your hair can indeed be beneficial, especially if it’s feeling dry and brittle. According to Ayurveda, curd helps nourish the scalp and hair follicles, thanks to its lactic acid content, which can condition and strengthen your hair. When using curd, it’s important to apply it in a way that encourages absorption without weighing the hair down.
First, select fresh, plain curd from whole milk. If you’re making a hair mask, a smoother consistency helps with application. When preparing a hair mask, add two parts of curd with one part of honey; ensure this mixture is well-blended before applying. Honey can moisturize, but you mentioned olive oil making concoction heavy. Reduce or omit olive oil. For less viscous mixture, blend curd longer to achieve a more homogenous texture.
Apply the curd mix to damp, not dripping wet, hair. Start from scalp, massage gently in circular motion to enhance circulation. Then spread through strands evenly, ensuring every section is covered. If your hair’s length tends towards dryness, concentrate more product on the ends. Keep the mask on for 20-30 mins. Avoid leaving it longer; curd can become difficult to rinse out and leave residue.
When rinsing, use lukewarm water to gently cleanse the hair. Avoid hot water as it can strip natural oils leading to dryness. If curd residue is a concern, follow with a mild shampoo rinse (SLES-free if possible).
In terms of frequency, applying curd once a week should be sufficient. Overuse might add excess moisture, cause imbalance in hair’s natural oil production. While curd is beneficial, balance it with regular washing schedule and ensure you’re not overloading your hair with product.
Additionally, it’s advisable to check the ingredients in your current conditioning products. Silicones can coat hair and make it feel heavy. Also, review your diet, as deficiencies in vitamins like A and E, iron or omega-3 fatty acids can impact hair health. Consider incorporating nuts and seeds, green leafy veggies and hydrating foods in your meals.
Lastly, lifestyle factors like stress or lack of sleep might contribute to hair dullness. Regular exercise, yoga, or calming breathing techniques can be supportive for both stress management and promoting healthier hair.
