Gelatin Powder Hair Mask for Shinier and Stronger Hair(Hair Care) Gelatin is a protein and it has become popular over recent years, especially for the role it plays in brain function, joint health, and healthy skin, hair, and nails. When it comes to protein and hair, you can get too much of a good thing. Healthy hair is both strong and flexible, but hair that has too much protein hardens, loses flexibility, and begins to break.On the other hand, hair that is fragile is also prone to breakage. The trick is to find a balance between the two. A far better option among all is gelatin, which contains keratin proteins that actually bind with hair to strengthen it. Gelatin with Henna adheres especially well to damaged areas, but also nourishes the entire strand as well. It helps to smooth the hair cuticle, boost shine and reduce breakage.Those with wavy or curly hair also report that it reduces frizz. Hair Mask:This is a super simple gelatin hair mask. If you have super long or very thick hair, you can double this recipe. Ingredients: 1.2 tbsp powdered gelatin 2.2 tbsp milk or water 3.2 tbsp hair conditioner (skip this if you have oily hair) Recipe: Warm up the milk in the microwave or use hot water. Whisk in gelatin. Allow it to sit for 15 minutes. Whisk in the conditioner. The mixture should be like a thick gel. How to Use : Comb gel through wet hair from roots to ends (no need to shampoo hair, you'll be doing that at the end). Add more milk or water if the paste is too thick.Wrap hair in plastic and then a towel (some women prefer to just wrap hair in a towel). Let hair dry for 30-40 minutes.Rinse hair out in the shower and follow with a shampoo.
