Our nature is truly amazing, in it there are plants that have a lot of useful properties. Among them there are also those that, due to biologically contained active substances, have a beneficial effect on the condition of the hair, restoring it, giving vitality, health and maintaining beauty. One of these plants is mustard. Mustard masks have long been considered the best natural remedy against oily hair, hair loss, as well as accelerating their growth (up to +3 cm per month).

The beneficial effect and effectiveness of mustard hair masks.
Mustard has high disinfecting, disinfecting and drying properties, and due to its "burning" properties, it stimulates blood circulation in the scalp, improving nutrition. In addition, mustard well eliminates excess sebum, affecting the functioning of the sebaceous glands. The plant owes its properties to the content in its composition of fatty acids, essential oils, enzymes, dietary fiber, micro and macro elements (especially magnesium, calcium, iron and zinc) and vitamins (A, B, E, and D).

Mustard-based masks eliminate the most common hair problems that occur in the background malnutrition, aggressive care, stress. Mustard hair masks have a high cleansing effect on the skin and hair, eliminate excess oiliness, nourish dry hair, strengthen weakened and dull hair, preventing hair loss, and increase density. Based on the existing problem, mustard in masks is combined with various components - egg yolk, olive and other vegetable oils, fermented milk products, honey. Regular use of mustard hair masks has a general healing effect on the condition of the hair.

Contraindications to the use of masks with mustard for hair.

  • Sensitive scalp.
  • The period of pregnancy (masks with it can provoke a deterioration in the condition of the pregnant woman).
  • The presence of inflammation processes on the scalp, violations of its integrity (cuts, wounds, scratches).
Precautions when using mustard masks.
When using mustard hair masks, it is important to be careful not to dry them out. Otherwise, the hair, on the contrary, will begin to break and dandruff will appear. Before using masks with mustard, it is necessary to conduct a small allergy test, for which you dilute a little powder in mustard and apply it on the back of your hand, or on the inner surface of the elbow bend. If within a few hours the skin has not reacted in any way, you can safely use recipes for mustard masks, but if irritation, itching and other unpleasant symptoms appear, their use should be abandoned.

It is clear that mustard powder should be diluted in water before application to hair. For this purpose, only warm (not hot, not cold) water (40 degrees) is suitable.

I offer recipes for the most effective masks to accelerate growth, strengthen hair, and eliminate excessive oiliness. You can vary the amount of ingredients according to the length and density of your hair. After applying the mustard mask, a slight burning sensation will be felt. You should not be afraid of this, it means that the mask works. If the burning sensation is too strong, the hair mask should be washed off immediately with plenty of water.

The nutrition of the follicles occurs not only due to accelerated blood circulation, but also chemical composition main active ingredient. The classic mustard mask without additional ingredients contains:

  • slow hair growth;
  • their loss (how do we deal with this disease);
  • dullness;
  • stiffness;
  • insufficient volume;
  • weakened follicles;

Keep in mind. Mustard will eliminate oily hair only if it is due to improper functioning of the sebaceous glands or insufficient care. If it is dictated internal diseases The mask won't help.

One more caveat. In case of hair loss, it is better to get permission from a trichologist to use a mustard mask so as not to harm yourself. It does not help with all types of alopecia, and in some cases it can even aggravate the situation.

How to do

Cooking

To prepare the mask, mustard powder is required. It is diluted with the liquid specified in the recipe. It does not have to be water: depending on the ultimate goal of the product, it can be replaced by milk, kefir, healing herbal infusions and even juices. The main thing is that they are warm or hot. Cold, they will not be able to give the mixture the desired consistency and often lead to the formation of lumps that will get stuck in the hair. Boiling water is also not suitable, since mustard, when in contact with it, releases toxic compounds that can harm the skin by clogging its pores.

Mixing the main ingredients is best done in wooden, glass or ceramic dishes. The main thing - not in metal and not plastic. Try to avoid the formation of lumps.

Honey, cosmetic and vegetable oils are preheated in a water or steam bath to 35-40°C. But be careful if you mix eggs, esters or ampoule vitamins with them. From high temperatures the former can curl up and spoil the mixture, while the latter and third may lose some of their useful properties.

The mask can be applied to both dirty and clean skin. In the first case, it will also work as a natural shampoo. So whether or not to wash your hair before the procedure - decide for yourself. However, at the time of application, the hair must be dry.

Expert opinion. Many trichologists recommend applying a mask without first washing your hair so that it works as effectively as possible.

Test

Mustard is a powerful irritant that often causes severe allergic reactions. Even if you safely eat it, this does not mean that everything will be just as good when applied to the skin. Therefore, protect yourself from trouble and do a preliminary test.

  1. Apply the prepared mixture on the wrist, the inner crook of the elbow or the skin behind the ear.
  2. Wait a quarter of an hour.
  3. In the absence of discomfort and allergic manifestations the mask is used in accordance with its intended purpose.
  4. If they are, you need to find another way.

It should be noted that such test checks do not give a 100% guarantee of the absence of allergies in the future. It may not appear immediately, but after some time. Especially with regular use.

How to apply

Application

If the task is to act on the roots (activate growth,) or the scalp (eliminate dandruff), you need to apply only to them, rubbing the mixture with massage movements. If you also need a cosmetic restoration of the hair itself (to make it less greasy, more shiny), spread the paste along the entire length with your palms. Combing is not necessary so that the mustard does not get on the tips: it can increase their cut. It is even recommended to pre-dip them in warm oil (burdock, coconut, castor olive) so that it protects them from the aggressive effects of the mask.

Expert opinion. Some trichologists do not recommend applying the mask along the entire length, arguing that it is only necessary for the roots. However, there are many positive feedback that such use of the product improves the external condition of the hair. This issue must be approached with caution and taking into account individual reactions.

Warming

Hair growth, thanks to the mustard mask, is largely due to the saturation of the follicles with essential nutrients. To enhance their penetration into the skin, it is necessary to make warming. An increase in temperature will speed up biochemical reactions. The bottom layer is either a plastic shower cap or a plastic bag. Upper - woolen scarf or terry towel.

Feel

Due to the blood flow to the scalp due to the irritating effect of the mask, burning and itching may occur after its application. They need to be controlled. If the sensations are quite tolerable, this is considered the norm, you do not need to be scared and take any action to eliminate them. But if they hurt and become unbearable, the mixture must be urgently washed off and either pick up another recipe with mustard, or find another remedy to solve your problem.

How long to keep on hair?

For those who make a mustard mask for the first time, it is undesirable to overdo it, even if the test showed no allergy. Optimal time- 10 minutes. If there were no pain sensations, no side effects did not arise, but I liked the result, with each subsequent time the session can be extended for another 5 minutes. The maximum for a classic recipe without auxiliary ingredients and with good tolerance is half an hour. If the composition contains aggressive substances that irritate the skin (alcohol, pepper), - no more than a quarter of an hour. If, on the contrary, the effect of mustard is softened by oil, kefir or egg, - up to 40-50 minutes.

washout

  1. Remove insulation.
  2. Lightly moisten your head with water at room temperature (the main thing is not hot).
  3. Apply shampoo mild action(preferably herbal). Its task is to soothe irritated skin, relieve redness. Whisk into foam.
  4. Rinse with water (not hot).
  5. Once again, more thoroughly, rinse your hair with the same shampoo.
  6. Rinse off the shampoo and rinse with a solution of a healing decoction of any herb.
  7. Blot your hair with a towel (do not rub or twist).

Completion

Balms and conditioners do not apply. Dry your head after such a procedure only in a natural way without the help of a hair dryer. You can comb only after complete drying, otherwise the irritated scalp will be seriously injured. Styling products are not recommended for use within 12 hours to allow the action of the mustard mask to take hold.

A little about varieties. For the preparation of masks, it is better to use either white or Sarepta mustard. Black is too hot and aggressive for that.

To make an effective mustard mask at home, you need to know a few more secrets of its preparation and application.

The mask is made with mustard powder, and not a ready-made store product in liquid form. The latter contains too many harmful substances (dyes, preservatives, flavor enhancers, etc.). It will be ideal if you purchase the powder from a pharmacy.

Do not exceed the amount of mustard indicated in the recipe.

You cannot store the mixture and use it twice - use it all at once. Throw away the rest.

Avoid getting the mixture in your nose, mouth and eyes. If this happens, rinse them as soon as possible with cool running water.

If you feel that you have overexposed it (itching and burning are unbearable), after washing, lubricate the scalp with ordinary vegetable oil for 30 minutes.

You can not use the mask too often, otherwise the result will be excessive drying of the hair. They will start to break and split. For oily, it will be enough 2 times a week, for normal and combined - 1 time per week, for dry, colored and damaged - 1 time in 10, or even 14 days. After every 10 procedures, you need to take a break for a month.

A special effect can be achieved by alternating mustard masks with other, less aggressive ones: kefir, olive, egg. This will reduce stress levels on the hair and scalp.

Recipes

Classic recipe

For accelerated growth, against fat content. Dilute dry mustard with warm water in equal amounts. You should get a creamy mixture. The consistency can be controlled by increasing or decreasing the amount of water.

All other recipes are prepared on the basis of this mixture by adding other auxiliary ingredients.

On a note. Many use this recipe not as a mask, but as a shampoo for oily hair. The effect is amazing: they are less dirty, become shiny and thick.

Mustard, egg, honey

Nutritious. Mix 20 ml of honey with dry mustard diluted with water to a creamy consistency (50 g). Add 1 beaten egg.

Minus: an unpleasant egg smell can remain on the hair. To remove it, add a few drops of your favorite ether to the water when rinsing. This applies to all mustard masks, which include eggs.

With mustard and burdock oil

One of the most forgiving. Even when applied to the entire length of the hair, the risk of damage will be minimal due to the enveloping properties of the oil. Both ingredients are mixed in equal amounts.

Burdock oil in this recipe can be replaced without loss of effectiveness with any other oil in accordance with the type of hair and the problem to be solved (castor, olive, coconut, etc.). If this is a fallout, then ours will help you choose the oil.

Minus: oils are hard to wash off, leaving a greasy gloss on the hair, which makes them look dirty. To facilitate this process, for the first time it is recommended to apply the shampoo on the head without wetting and try to lather it dry. It's difficult, but possible. But with the second wash, there will be no trace of oil left.

With mustard and honey

Nourishing, restorative. By its properties, it resembles the previous one. Both ingredients are mixed in equal amounts. Honey should be as fresh and melted as possible.

Minus: if the hair is not rinsed well, it will stick together due to honey.

With mustard and egg

For growth and shine, from falling out. 1 egg, beaten until foamy, mixed with 100 g of mustard, diluted with water.

With mustard and kefir

For growth, from alopecia. The powder is not mixed with water, but with kefir. The proportions remain the same. For oily hair, you need a 1% or 1.5% fermented milk drink. For normal and combined - 2.5%. For dry - 3.5%.

With mustard and yeast

Turbo accelerator of growth. Dissolve powdered yeast (15 g) in warm milk (about 50 ml), add sugar (15 g). Leave for half an hour - you need the mixture to ferment. Add 20 g of honey and 50 g of mustard diluted with water.

With mustard and sugar

Ordinary granulated sugar enhances the action of mustard in all directions. The mask with it becomes 2 times more effective for growth, and from loss and fat content. Mustard powder and sugar can be mixed immediately (50 g each), then pour warm water until a paste of the desired consistency is formed. You can first prepare the mustard mixture (according to classic recipe), and then add sugar and stir until it is completely dissolved.

Cons: very dry. If the hair is initially dry, split, brittle, dyed, add 100 ml of any oil to the mask.

With yolk

Stimulates growth, stops hair loss. Main indication: for overdried hair. Mix 50 g of mustard diluted in water with the yolk.

With green tea

Variation of the previous recipe. Gives a beautiful shine. Mustard powder must first be mixed with good quality green tea in equal proportions (30 g each), pour hot water (50 ml), mix thoroughly, leave for a quarter of an hour. Add egg yolk, mix well again.

With mustard and gelatin

Prepare mustard and gelatin pastes separately. Gelatin powder is poured with water (warm or room temperature) in a ratio of 1: 3. It is kneaded so that lumps do not form. Left for half an hour. If everything is done correctly, the gelatinous mass will increase in volume by 2 times. You can heat it in the microwave (15 seconds) or in a water (steam) bath for 5 minutes. Connect both masses.

Note. Gelatin gives the effect of lamination, therefore it is applied along the entire length to exceptionally clean hair (for more information about lamination with gelatin-based masks, see the before and after photos of the procedure).

With mustard and vitamins

Nourishing, suitable for any type. Mix 60 g of mustard paste, 1 pounded yolk, 20 ml of burdock (or any other) oil, 10 ml of oil vitamins A and E (can be replaced with ampoule).

Multicomponent

For accelerated growth and shine. Mix 60 g of mustard paste, 20 g of mayonnaise and natural olive oil, 10 g of melted butter.

Note. Designed for dry hair, but contraindicated for oily.

With essential oil

For easy combing and shine. Dilute 50 g of mustard powder with 100 ml of kefir, mix thoroughly. Add 1 yolk, 10 g of honey, 20 ml of almond (or any other) oil, 5 drops of rosemary ether.

with aloe

Restoring. Mix 60 g of mustard paste, 2 yolks, 30 ml of aloe juice and cognac, 20 g of heavy cream.

With onion juice

Accelerates growth, stops loss. Mix 60 g of mustard paste, 20 ml of onion juice (pass the onion through a meat grinder or blender and squeeze out the liquid with gauze), 20 ml of aloe juice, 10 g of honey. To heighten the effect, many add a little more garlic juice, but you need to consider how hot the mixture will turn out.

Minus: the irritating effect is amplified several times. Therefore, the exposure time is reduced to a quarter of an hour. To remove an unpleasant odor, add a few drops of any ether to the rinse water.

Mustard, egg, sugar

A softer variation of the previous recipe. In the mustard-sugar mixture (100 g), add 1 beaten egg until foamy.

With yogurt and oatmeal
