Protein Rinses for a luxuriant mane

Hair is most important feature of an individual’s personality. Almost sixty percent of our looks are attributed to our hairstyle. It is essential for you to take good care of your tresses in order to keep them glossy and beautiful. The key to cultivating naturally shiny and luxuriant hair lies in following a proper hair care routine on a daily basis. Hair is made up of a protein called keratin. Therefore, it is essential for you to include a number of protein rich foods in your diet such as eggs, soy, meat, chicken, fish, green leafy vegetables, milk, cheese, butter, yogurt etc. It is essential to feed to right quantity of protein both externally as well as internally to your tresses in order to keep them in good health and shape. You can use a number of Protein rinses in order to wash your hair and maintain its shine.

It is necessary for you to take good care of your tresses in order to maintain their shine and gloss. A lusterless mane makes you look unhealthy and dull, whereas a sparkling mane enhances your personality. Grooming is an essential part of any hair care regime. It is essential for you to shampoo, condition, oil and brush your hair everyday. Rinsing is an important part of any grooming program. The outcome of good shampooing and conditioning is determined by thorough rinsing. It helps you get rid of the slightest trace of residue that can be left behind after treating your hair to shampoo and conditioners. Therefore, it is recommended to rinse as much as you can. If soft water is not available for rinsing the hair, you can go in for an apple cider vinegar after shampoo rinse. Well rinsed tresses have a clear, shiny appearance. Rinsing cannot damage or harm your hair.

Protein rinses and hair:  

Protein based rinses are great for dry brittle hair. They help fight split ends and nourish the hair, thereby restoring its original shine and health. They are also recommended for curly, frizzy hair that is prone to becoming brittle and lifeless. You can prepare your own home remedies for the final rinse as they are convenient and less expensive. After shampoo rinses do not affect the original hair color and give the hair a better shine and body.

Protein Rinses help to strengthen and lubricate the hair. They help treat colored, frosted, bleached, tainted, straightened and damaged hair, the structure of which has been changed while exposing it to harsh chemicals. Each time the hair undergoes a chemical process, it is stripped off almost 50 per cent of its protein content. This leaves the hair feeling, brittle, dry, lifeless and boring. Rinsing with a good protein helps restore the vitality and suppleness of hair. There are various protein rinses available in the market these days, but you can also concoct your own protein based rinse at home. It is recommended to use them on the days when you are not going out.

Benefits of Protein after Shampoo Rinses:

  • Protein Rinses replace the loss caused by exposing the hair to harsh chemical treatments.
  • Protests and eliminates further damage to the hair shaft.
  • Reduces dry of frizzy hair caused by lack of protein in the hair shaft.
  • Helps reduce hair breakage due to the harmful affect of chemicals.  

Types of Protein Rinses that can be made at home:

Wheat Germ Rinse:

Take four tablespoons of powdered wheat germ and tie it in a muslin bag. Soak the bag in 1 pint of water for three hours. Squeeze the bag and use the solution to rinse your tresses. This is an ideal treatment for dry hair.  

Whey after Shampoo Rinse:

Whey protein is considered to be America’s number one protein. It is also the purest form of protein found anywhere in the world. To make this rinse, collect and strain Whey and use it for rinsing the hair.

Oatmeal Rinse:

Fill a muslin bag with four tablespoons of powdered oatmeal and soak the fastened bag in a pint of water for three to four hours. Squeeze out the milky white iquid and use as a protein rinse.

I recently found a great chemical free tea tree shampoo – which really helped me grow stronger hair –its from the Made from Earth product line called the Tea & Protein Herbal Shampoo….it actiallu has wheat proteins in it and that’s what makes my hair look so full after I use it.

The directions say for the shampoo to work – you have to leave in your hair for 2 - but I usually do it for about 5, since my hair used to be so thin. But 5 minutes really works for me cause I can see a major difference in how thick my hair is…

Even my husband comments on how my hair felt better – and he never notices anything! I recommend it for all healthy women out there who want better full hair.

I tried the Made from Earth Tea and Protein Shampoo, and it DOES NOT have a very strong fragrance which I like – because it doesn’t have any synthetic perfumes. Everything your smelling is from organic raw ingredients. I happen to like it a lot. Its definitely a higher price range than I am used to but I have found it to be worth the extra money. I have chin length, dry, color-treated hair and this keeps my hair moisturized and shiny. I'm also happy to note that it leaves my hair feeling silky and not frizzy like it usually is. Highly recommended for healthy women…
