Aloe Vera Hair Treatment
Aloe vera is amazing for our hair! It contains proteolytic enzymes that repair dead skin cells on our scalp. It also promotes hair growth, reduces dandruff, and acts as a great conditioner that leaves your hair smooth and shiny. All good things, right? Treat yourself with this at home aloe vera hair mask.
What you’ll need:
- Fresh aloe vera gel
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp yogurt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Mix all ingredients together and massage onto your scalp for 15 minutes. Wash it out with warm water after 30 minutes. Use this treatment once a week for soft, shiny hair.

Herb-Infused Vinegar
Herb gardens are wonderful for cooking delicious meals, making DIY beauty treatments, and even natural household cleaners. One of our new favorite uses are homemade vinegars!
You’ll need:
- 2 cups wine, rice, or apple cider vinegar
- 5 sprigs of lightly crushed herbs (you can choose from oregano, rosemary, tarragon or thyme)
- For an extra kick, you can add 1 small fresh chile and 1 clove of garlic
- Jar with tight-fitting lid
To make:
Add herbs and vinegar to your jar and let it sit to infuse for 5-6 days. This will allow your flavors to blend. Strain your vinegar with a fine mesh sieve into a bottle of your choice. Feel free to add a sprig of herbs and a few chiles and garlic cloves to make it fancy. Store in the refrigerator.
