The Science Behind Getting Shiny Hair with Vodka

The benefits of at home hair maskingπŸ’†πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

When I was a kid I was obsessed with Cindy Crawford and followed her every move and word. The best advice she gave me was a DIY hair mask using Vodka and Eggs for shiny, healthy hair!

To break it down shiny hair is the result of a combination of factors, including good hair health, proper hair care, and reflection of light.

Here are some of the scientific processes that contribute to shiny hair:

1. Natural oil production - The glands in your scalp produce natural oils, called sebum, that help to moisturise and protect your hair. When your hair has the right amount of oil, it looks shinier and healthier.

2. Cuticle layer - The outermost layer of your hair, called the cuticle, plays a critical role in the shine and overall health of your hair. When the cuticle is smooth and flat, it reflects more light and gives hair a shiny appearance.

3. Moisture content - Hair needs to be well-hydrated to look shiny. Moisture helps to smooth the cuticle and prevents hair from looking dry and dull.

4. Light reflection - The way light reflects off your hair can contribute to its shiny appearance. Hair that is straight and smooth reflects more light and looks shinier than hair that is curly or textured.

To achieve and maintain shiny hair, it's essential to care for your hair properly. This includes using a gentle shampoo and conditioner, avoiding harsh chemicals and overuse of heat styling tools while protecting your hair from environmental factors like sun exposure and pollution. So right that’s a lot to consider everyday. If you’re too busy going about your everyday life but are concerned about your lack lustre hair game then what this means is you might need to dedicate some time out for you to focus on your scalp and hair health.

So next Me time session consider a hair mask. Hair masks are an excellent way to repair damage and nourish hair. These masks contain natural ingredients like avocado, coconut oil, honey, and argan oil designed to deeply moisturise and hydrate your locks. To achieve this, it is recommended to use a hair mask once a week. This routine helps to keep your hair healthy by preventing breakage and leaving it looking shiny and refreshed.

Now that maybe easier said than done ….

In today's economic times, a weekly hair mask has become a luxury item rather than a necessity. In times like this innovation of beauty lovers has been trending towards finding the ultimate guide for an at home treatment with everyday products.

The move to organic, home remedies has risen significantly over the last few years and so we wanted to take some time to share our Vodka Hair Mask we came across in the international travels in Bali, that we wanted to share with club members.

We know you will fall in love with it too. Even if you’re not a drinker you can pick up a travel1 shot bottle of vodka your local store to complete this recipe. For the rest of us grab out that Vodka bottle and get yourself a cocktail shaker and a bowl to mix your hair mask.

Why does vodka help with hair shine?

Vodka has a Lo pH level which means it can assist to balance your scalps pH level it can help to reduce build-up, tame your wild frizzy hair or to boost your scalps health. Vodka is the ultimate booster to give you luscious tresses.

For those of us with oily, greasy, and frizzy hair we can benefit the most from vodka hair masks. But be cautious the flip side is that over use is that vodka can lead to a dry scalp which is the opposite of what you are trying to achieve.  Using it once or twice a week is enough. To be honest we would do this once a fortnight as a booster to our hair routine

But it’s not vodka alone that will lead to shiny lustrous locks of hair.
