5 homemade hair serums for beautiful hair

Whether it is rainy season with high humidity level or the moment after a workout session, there are many factors that can lead to frizzy hair. If you already have dry hair, even a two-minute walk outside can make your hair frizzy. One product that helps to manage frizzy, dry, and dull hair is a hair serum. You just need to apply a few drops of it after washing your hair. If you are a fan of home remedies, you can even make your own homemade hair serum at home. Let us tell you all about DIY hair serums.

A hair serum is a liquid-based treatment that is usually formulated using silicones, says beauty industry veteran Dr Blossom Kochhar, Chairperson of the Blossom Kochhar Group of Companies. They provide a protective layer over the hair fiber, and assist in smoothing the frizz. A serum is designed to coat the hair’s surface to help impart shine, smoothness, and hydration. When your tresses are smooth, they tend to look shinier and glossier. Some types of silicone used in hair serum help to reflect light, which increases the appearance of overall shine. Most women use it on wet hair, but you can apply it on dry hair too. They can act as both a pre-styling treatment and a finishing product.

Serum and soft hair

You must have noticed that regular application of hair serum gives you soft and silky hair. Here’s how:

1. Less tangles

When your hair is smooth and sleek, it’s less likely to tangle, says the expert. The detangling effect of hair serum can make your hair easy to comb, style and manage.

2. Promotes smooth hair

The product has an anti-frizz effect that helps to improve the smoothness of your tresses. That’s because of the coating action of silicone, which gives an appearance of polished and sleek hair strands.

3. Protects against damage

A hair serum can protect your hair from different types of damage. This includes damage caused by:

• Chemical processing like colouring or straightening.
• Damage caused to hair by styling tools like blow drying or heating.
• Constant exposure to direct sunlight or extreme change in weather conditions.
