I have seen a lot of ideas for homemade hair reconstructors and conditioners, but other than using Coconut Oil as my favorite hair moisturizer, I have never used home products to make homemade hair reconstructor…until now!
Thanks again to Pinterest, I couldn’t pass up the idea of making my own hair reconstructor.
The treatment made my natural curls more bouncy & took away frizz
Hair Reconstructor Vs. Hair Moisturizer
A hair reconstructor is different than a hair moisturizer. Â A moisturizer adds moisture back into the hair. Â It is great for dry hair. Â A reconstructor is like a strengthener. Â It helps heal damaged, weak hair.
There are several things that make hair need moisturizing treatments and reconstructing treatments. Â Some hair is just naturally dry and weak, but most of the damage is from:
- highlighting and coloring hair
- not getting regular trims
- outside elements like wind and sun
- heat damage from hair dryers and curling/flattening irons
- certain medications
My hair had damage from all of the above!
