Mask for hair with dimexidom

On what only tricks women start up, wanting to have thick and beautiful hair. In the course are and various industrial tools, which are numerous, and time-tested "grandmother's" recipes. One such popular home remedy for growth and strengthening of hair is a mask with dimexid.

Industrially, such masks are not produced, but it is not difficult to prepare them.

Dimexide solution for hair application

Dimexide is a medical preparation used as an antibacterial, anti-burn agent, as well as for muscle and joint pain. The drug is intended solely for external use and in a diluted form, as when ingested it is toxic.

Dimexide has a very high penetrating power, due to which useful substances easily reach deep layers of the skin, which is why it is used in hair masks.

Recipes for masks for hair with dimexid

Since dimexide serves, first of all, as a vehicle, the effect of the mask largely depends on its other components. In addition, the content of dimexide contributes to the treatment of hair, or rather - the scalp, if there is any bacterial infection.

  1. The most popular stimulator of hair growth with dimexide is the following composition. Mix burdock, castor and olive oil (almond, linseed oil), oil solution of vitamin A, oil solution of vitamin E (tocopherol), vitamin B6 (in ampoules) and dimexide in equal proportions. If desired, you can add a few drops of essential oil (lemon, bay, Atlas or Himalayan cedar, sage medicinal). They not only have a beneficial effect on hair, but also help to neutralize the specific odor of dimexid, which seems unpleasant to many. The mask is slightly warmed up, carefully mixed and applied to the hair, wrapped on top with a film and a towel for 30-45 minutes, and then washed off using a shampoo.
  2. Mix lemon juice (2 spoons), castor oil (2 tablespoons), dimexide (1 spoon), oil solutions of vitamins A and E (1 spoonful). The mask is used in the same way as in the first case.
  3. Mix the peach oil (1 spoon), burdock oil (1 spoon), olive, linseed or almond oil (1 spoonful), 1 yolk. The mask is applied in the same way as the two previous ones, but it should not be heated, and it is not necessary to wash it off too hot, it is better, almost cool, with water.

There are other recipes for masks for hair growth and strengthening, but they are all based on the mixing of dimexide with the oil base. For their preparation, practically any vegetable oil that favorably affects hair, and other nutritional and fortifying substances are suitable. The main thing is that the ratio of dimexide and other components in the aggregate is not less than 1: 3. Apply such a mask should not be more than once a week, optimally - 2 times a month.

How to dilute dimexide for hair?

Before adding to the mask the preparation is recommended to be diluted with water in a ratio of 1: 3. The maximum concentration of dimexide in the mask should not exceed 25%, since it is a rather potent drug, which in high concentration can cause a chemical burn. It is also possible the appearance of itching, burning, an individual allergic reaction. At the slightest discomfort, the mask should be washed off immediately.

Before applying to the hair, the composition should be thoroughly mixed and immediately used. If you do not apply the mask immediately after mixing, but leave it for a while, it will break up, which can lead to the skin getting a clean dimexide.
