Many of us who have natural hair or dreadlocks, struggle each day to tame our frizzy hair, but to no avail. I’ve been trying different products to keep my hair looking less frizzy, but nothing really worked, or at least just for a few hours. Who would of thought that aloe vera, a simple, yet powerful plant could do the trick. Stick around some more to see what I have to share with you.
Falling in Love With Aloe Vera
How I found out that aloe vera was an effect remedy for frizzy hair, was just by trial and error. I love this plant so much because of its many benefits for my skin, hair, as a tonic, and also to relieve my tired feet at times.
Ditching Hair Gel for Aloe Vera Gel
I have replaced traditional gels with organic aloe vera to prevent frizzy dreadlocks. If used correctly, aloe vera doesn’t leave any flakes in your hair. It’s not only good for keeping wild frizzy hair in place, but it supplies a lot of nourishment to your scalp and hair. This natural organic plant can be used to treat stubborn dandruff or itchy scalp as well.
Taming Your Dreadlocks for Special Occasions
Not all frizz is bad, but sometimes you just want your dreadlocks to look a little more tamer, especially in certain situations such as going to an interview. You certainly don’t want to scare the interviewer off and blow your chance of landing your dream job.
Aloe for Longer Lasting Hold for Natural Hair
The aloe vera gel dries pretty quickly when you apply it to your hair. And when it dries, it keeps your hair in the form you styled it, whether you’re using it for naturally frizzy hair or frizzy locs.
Soft, Silky Natural Hair With Aloe Vera Remedy
To help distribute the aloe vera juice or gel, use a soft bristle brush to brush areas such as the hairline. For ladies who want to create or style their baby hair or edges, this is the perfect natural way to create soft, sleek, edges. The aloe gel will dry, leaving your edges in the design that you created.
One of the many great things about using the aloe vera gel in my dreadlocks, is that it makes my hair soft and silky. Even though it keeps your hair in place, it’s not stiff or dry. It just looks like you just sprayed some oil sheen on your hair.
Combat Bald Spots With Aloe Vera Gel
Apart from using aloe vera for frizzy dreadlocks, you can use it to promote new hair-growth for bald spots. For ladies who are going through menopause and are dealing with bald spots or thinning hair, aloe vera can help grow back a fuller head of hair.
There are tons of benefits from the aloe vera plant. As long as you’re not allergic to it, you should enjoy all of them.
Tips for Tired Feet Using Aloe Vera
Again, this is just my experience with using the gel straight from the plant. If I had a long day and want to relieve my tired, achy feet, I simply scrape some of the liquid clear gel from the plant and rub it on my feet and on the bottom of my foot. I always wake up the next day pain-free. This is why this is also one of the reasons I always try not to run out of aloe vera.
