4 Best Hair Protein Treatment At Home (No Eggs) 

While eggs are the most common ingredient for hair masks, have you ever wondered if you could take them out of your haircare routine? Well, here are the 4 best hair protein treatments you can try at home without eggs. 

Have you run out of eggs at home? Or are you a vegetarian who is tired of every haircare routine including eggs? Well, don’t fret. We’ve got you as here are the easiest and most effective ways to go about a protein treatment for hair at home without egg. 

Why does your hair need a protein treatment? 

Your hair is actually made up of protein. So when it is depleted, your hair turns brittle, dry and can get easily damaged. So to make up for what is lost, it only makes sense that you should pamper your hair with substitute proteins. While egg is a common ingredient for home protein treatments, you can also make do without it. Here are our top 4 protein treatment for hair at home without egg.

Coconut milk 

While coconut milk itself does not have a lot of protein, it actually recovers your hair’s natural protein. Since it is rich in other fatty acids and vitamins B, C and E it strengthens damaged hair follicles and encourages hair growth.  

How to: 

  • Take three tablespoons of coconut milk and heat it on low flame for a minute or till it’s warm.  

  • While it is still warm, start applying it to your scalp and massage it in. 

  • Cover your hair with a towel or a shower cap and leave it overnight to maximise its benefits. 

  • Next morning, wash it off with a shampoo like the Tresemme Keratin Smooth Shampoo since it actually has keratin, a hair protein much needed to keep your strands smooth and frizz-free. 

You can do this treatment twice a week.

Banana and avocado mask 

Avocado is one of the few fruits that have a high content of protein and can deal with any kind of hair problem. It is also rich in vitamins and antioxidants that hydrate your hair and add a shine to it. Bananas, on the other hand, are loaded with amino acids that boost your hair’s natural proteins which when paired with avocado also strengthen damaged hair and even get rid of dandruff.  

How to: 

  • You will need a ripe banana, avocado and three tablespoons of an oil of your choice like coconut oil, almond oil or olive oil. Cut both fruits into pieces and add them to a blender with the oil.  

  • Blend it at the lowest setting in short intervals till it turns into a paste with a smooth consistency.  

  • Generously apply it to your hair from the root to the tips.  

  • Leave the mask on for 30 minutes and then wash it off with water. 

  • End the routine with a mild conditioner like the TRESemmé Pro Pure Damage Recovery Conditioner as it is not only paraben and sulphate free but also has fermented rice water and amino acids to further boost your natural hair protein and reduce breakage. 

You can apply this hair mask once a week.

Almond oil 

Almond oil is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, protein and vitamin E which works to better the overall health of your hair. Whether you use it on its own or add it to any hair mask, it works wonders on your hair by encouraging hair growth, healing damaged hair follicles and in turn reducing breakage and clearing your hair of dandruff.  

How to: 

  • If you’d like to use almond oil on its own, use it as a massaging oil as it promotes blood flow in the scalp and brings back shine to dry hair.  

  • Generously apply it to your scalp and hair from the roots to the end. Massage your scalp gently for 20 minutes.  

  • Leave it overnight and wash it off with a mild shampoo the next morning. 

You can apply it twice a week. 

Honey and yoghurt mask 

Yoghurt is rich with protein which travels through the hair shaft and seals frayed cuticles, reducing split ends and frizz. Combined with honey which is known for its deep conditioning properties, it will also free up your scalp from any buildup, letting the hair follicles breathe while hydrating your locks and making them soft. 

How to:  

  • Add three teaspoons of honey to half a cup of yoghurt and mix well 

  • Apply it from the roots to the tip of your hair and let it sit for 30 minutes. 

  • Wash your hair with warm water and a mild shampoo. 

You can apply this hair mask twice a week to make your hair naturally shiny. 

FAQs on hair protein treatments at home

How can I increase hair’s protein naturally?
