Brazil nut & amla mask

Brazil nut & amla hair mask

Brazil nut oil is considered one of the best hair conditioners, adding shine while repairing split ends. Rich in vitamins A & E, brazil nut oil is said to be wonderful for helping nourish & rejuvenate damaged & dehydrated hair.⁠

Amla infused oil is very popular in haircare because of its high vitamin C content & healing properties. In mask form it works to keep strands silky & conditioned, while also preventing scalp infection & stimulating growth.⁠

Shea butter is extremely moisturising & high in vitamins A & E as well as essential fatty acids which can help reduce frizz & enhance shine & at the same time protect hair from heat damage.⁠
