Want to bring back your hair's natural shine? A methi (fenugreek) and onion hair mask is a potent DIY treatment that nourishes, strengthens, and enhances your hair’s overall texture. Tap to check!

BENEFITS OF METHI SEEDS FOR HAIR

Methi seeds are high in protein and nicotinic acid, all which facilitate hair growth, stop hair fall, and kill dandruff naturally.

ONION JUICE

Onions are a great source of sulfur which helps to regrow hair follicles, adds volume to hair, and improves blood flow to the scalp for stronger, more radiant hair.

INGREDIENTS

2 tbsp methi seeds, 1 medium onion (juiced), 1 tbsp coconut oil, 2 tbsp aloe vera gel.

SOAKING THE METHI SEEDS

Soak 2 tbsp of methi seeds in water overnight. That will make the seeds soft and it will be easy to make a paste out of them the next day.

PREPARING THE MASK

Grind the soaked methi seeds into a fine paste. Combine with the onion juice, 1 tbsp coconut oil and 2 tbsp aloe vera gel.

APPLYING THE MASK

Apply the mask to your scalp and hair. Massage lightly to make sure that all of the ingredients reach the roots and that every strand is evenly coated.

RINSE OFF

Leave the mask on for 30-45 minutes. Wash with a gentle shampoo for shiny, healthy, smooth hair that feels like silk.

STUDY FINDINGS

A study by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) suggests that fenugreek seeds help prevent hair thinning and improve hair density due to their rich nutrient profile.

CONCLUSION

For stronger, shinier hair, try this simple DIY hair mask. Consult a trichologist for personalised advice.
