Aloe vera moisturizes and prevents hair loss
Aloe vera is well known in the hair universe. This is because the plant has inside a powerful gel rich in vitamins, minerals and amino acids, which penetrate the hair fiber and moisturize the hair from root to tip.
In addition, just as it cleanses the scalp and controls oiliness, aloe vera also helps fight hair loss by stimulating blood circulation in the region and facilitating the entry of nutrients.
Cornstarch keeps hair strands straight
Cornstarch, on the other hand, forms a perfect pair with aloe vera because it enhances the effect of the gel. Mixing cornstarch with water or milk, depending on your preference, forms a base that seals the hair cuticle and locks in moisture.
