what happens if we apply curd on hair

Janvi

I am really curious about what happens if we apply curd on hair because I've been hearing a lot about it lately! A friend of mine swears by it and said it totally transformed her hair, making it super shiny and soft. I tried it last weekend, just mixed some plain curd with a bit of coconut oil and slathered it on my hair, hoping for the same results. But honestly, while it felt nice going on, I’m not sure if I see a huge difference yet. I mean, is it supposed to work instantly or do you have to keep doing it for a while? What happens if we apply curd on hair multiple times a week? I've read that it's great for moisturizing and maybe even helps with dandruff, but does that really hold true? My scalp has been kinda flaky recently, and I’m wondering if I should stick with the curd treatment or go back to my regular shampoo and conditioner routine. Plus, what happens if we apply curd on hair and leave it on for too long? Is there a risk of it getting too heavy or greasy? Any insights would be super helpful!

Applying curd to hair is often touted in traditional remedies as a natural conditioner and moisturizer due to its rich content in fatty acids, proteins, and vitamins. When applying curd mixed with coconut oil to your hair, you’re essentially creating a hydrating mask that can enhance shine and smoothness. However, results can vary from person to person depending on factors like hair type, scalp condition, and how frequently you use it. Curd is thought to soothe the scalp and potentially help with dandruff, primarily due to its probiotic properties which might balance the microbial environment of the scalp. It often requires consistent use over some weeks to notice significant changes, especially if the scalp issue is persistent. Generally, applying curd once or twice a week is considered safe, but more frequent applications might result in a build-up which could weigh your hair down or make it greasy, especially if not rinsed out thoroughly. Leaving it on for around 20 to 30 minutes before washing it out should be sufficient; longer durations might not necessarily improve the benefits and could indeed make the hair feel oily, especially if you’re using an oil mix. If you notice your scalp still being flaky or any irritation, it might indicate a need to try other treatments or look at underlying causes more closely; sometimes ingredients like zinc pyrithione or salicylic acid found in dandruff shampoos can be more effective for stubborn flakes. If there is no improvement, consider seeing a dermatologist who can provide a tailored plan based on your scalp’s specific needs. As with any new skincare or haircare treatment, start slow and observe how your hair and scalp respond.
