4 Ways to Glow Up and Grow Out Your Hair with Honey

Honey is that sweet, sticky condiment we love adding to our food. It gives us energy and makes us happy. For ages, honey has been used as both a food and medicine but, did you know there are also benefits of honey for hair?

Honey seals moisture in your hair. 

This makes it a great conditioner. When the hair is properly conditioned, it reduces breakage, which is often a cause for slower hair growth. Additionally, honey contains protein which can help to restore weak and brittle strands.

Honey has antibacterial and antiseptic qualities. 

Properly taking care of natural hair care is means keeping hair and scalp clean and moisturized. Honey contains a bunch of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants to help detox the hair and scalp

A positive side effect of honey on hair is that it boosts hair growth and stimulates hair re-growth from dormant follicles.

Honey for Hair Growth  

Honey is used medicinally for wound healing because of its ability to promote cell growth. For example, honey can stimulate the growth and healing of chemically damaged epithelial (skin) cells on the scalp that are important for hair growth.

Glow up with Honey

Honey has both emollient and humectant properties. Emollients smooth the hair follicles, adding shine to dull hair—humectants bond with water molecules, adding moisture. So honey benefits the hair by moisturizing and locking in shine; honey can help restore your hair's natural luster.

How to use honey for hair  

Add honey to a deep conditioner to maximize its benefits for longer, healthy, shiny hair. Or use honey for a hair mask to get soft, touchable hair.
