Why should you waste money on expensive products when amazing hair care products are just around.Many say Bentonite clay locally known as "Ayilor" is not good.

Yes I get it, it is not good to be eaten but it has other amazing benefits for the hair and skin. For many years people have used clays externally and internally to maintain good health and treat some diseases.

BENTONITE CLAY known as “Shiley or ayilor” in Ghana is an absorbent aluminum phylosilicale clay. It is a very good dexotoxifying agent due to its poly-cationic nature or its strong negative electromagnetic charge. It works as a magnet which draws metals and toxins out of the hair and even skin. It is excellent at balancing body PH level and protecting the hair and skin from Ultraviolet rays. Just as the body needs to be detoxed once a while, the hair also needs some detoxing to remove some unhealthy build-ups which comes about as a result of environmental factors such as heat, excessive sun rays etc,

As a hair detox you can use bentonite clay as a hair mask to cleans the hair and make it thick as well.

HERE’S HOW
