Yogurt is an excellent product for dry hair or y0ou can beat yogurt and then apply on the hair and scalp. Leave for 30-45 minutes and then rinse of with lukewarm water and use mild shampoo.

2)      Yogurt with honey- Yogurt and honey is a perfect for winter care! Beat yogurt and add few drops of honey to it. Apply on the hair and leave for 30-45 minutes.
