what are the benefits of applying curd on hair - #24606

Reet

I am really curious about what are the benefits of applying curd on hair. Last month, I had this major hair issue after trying a new shampoo and my hair started feeling super dry and frizzy. Like, it was a mess! A friend mentioned that curd might help, and I mean, I know people use it in cooking — but in hair care? I was skeptical at first. Anyway, I read online about the nourishing properties and thought I should give it a try. I mixed curd with honey and applied it to my scalp and lengths, left it on for about 30 mins. Honestly, it was kinda messy but I was desperate. After rinsing, my hair felt surprisingly soft and somewhat smoother. But I still wonder, like, is that really because of the curd? What are the benefits of applying curd on hair that I might not know? My hair still feels a bit brittle sometimes, does it make a difference long-term? Also, how often should I do this? I feel like I need some guidance here since I’m not sure if this could really replace my usual conditioner. Thinking of trying it again but need more info on what are the benefits of applying curd on hair before I fully commit. Any insights?

Doctors' responses

Curd, or yogurt, is often noted in traditional hair care for its potential to improve hair texture and manage dryness. Although the effects can vary based on individual hair type and specific issues, there are a few benefits that might explain the improvements you noticed. First, curd contains lactic acid and healthy fats, which can offer a mild moisturizing effect, potentially reducing dryness and frizziness in hair. The proteins in curd might help to fortify the hair strands, making them less prone to breakage, although this is more of a surface-level conditioning rather than a deep, structural repair. Because curd is a natural product, it’s generally safe for topical use, but it can be messy, as you mentioned. For some people, using curd can occasionally soothe the scalp and assist in reducing mild dandruff due to its inherent probiotic properties, which could potentially restore some balance to the scalp’s microbial environment. However, for long-term benefits or to address more significant issues like brittleness, it’s worth considering additional or alternative treatments. You might need to integrate oils such as coconut or argan oil to deeply hydrate your hair, especially if the dryness persists. The frequency of application depends on how your hair responds. Trying it once a week might be reasonable and observe the changes over a month before deciding whether to continue. It’s important to note that while curd can act as a supplementary treatment, it may not entirely substitute for conditioners that are specifically formulated to address your hair’s needs, particularly those caused by chemical damages. If your hair remains brittle despite these home treatments, it may be beneficial to consult with a dermatologist or a professional hairstylist to get tailored advice regarding more targeted hair care products.
