Apple Cider Vinegar and Liquid Keratin Can Work Miracles on Elastic Hair

One of the main characteristics of elastic hair is the open cuticles, which let any type of treatment that you do to resolve it escape. Apple cider vinegar acts exactly on that part of the hair fiber, leaving the hair aligned, soft and shiny right from the first application. Check out the step-by-step guide on how it, keratin and a reconstructive mask can help resolve this situation:

1 step: start by mixing 25ml of apple cider vinegar with 100ml of filtered water and set aside;

2 step: wash your hair with shampoo without salt and remove excess moisture after rinsing;

3 step: separate the hair into sections and spray liquid keratin on each one. Let it act for 10 minutes;

4 step: after 10 minutes, without rinsing the keratin, apply a reconstructive mask to the hair and let it act for another 20 minutes. Then rinse well, leaving no residue.

5 step: divide the hair again into sections and apply the mixture made with water and vinegar, letting it act for another 15 minutes. Then just rinse well, apply the conditioner and finish as you usually do.

Colorless gelatin and treatment cream also help in the reconstruction of elastic hair

With gelatin, the benefits for the hair are due to the large concentration of collagen in its composition. This component will help restore the natural and healthy elasticity of the hair. In addition to collagen, gelatin still has other proteins and amino acids that will strengthen damaged locks.

1 step: dissolve a sachet of tasteless and colorless gelatin in 150ml of water;

2 step: mix the dissolved gelatin with the ideal amount of your favorite reconstructive mask for your hair;

3 step: apply the final result on washed hair, leave it on for 30 minutes and rinse thoroughly.
