I wanted to share an amazing rice keratin treatment that'll smoothen and straighten the hair very effectively. Many beauty parlours offer keratin treatments but usually they are formaldehyde based treatments and though some keratin products promise that they're free of formaldehyde,they contain chemicals that release formaldehyde when mixed with water.
So technically formaldehyde is the base ingredient for those treatments too.Formaldehyde is a colorless strong smelling gas that causes respiratory problems when inhaled or when absorbed through the skin. Doing formaldehyde based treatments once in a while will not cause any problems but frequent usage increases health risk.
HOW THIS WORKS
Instead of using chemical based keratin treatments,try this natural rice based keratin treatment. The base for this treatment is cooked rice, rice is wonderful for smoothening out even the most frizzy and dry hair.
This treatment is made with commonly available kitchen ingredients and is very very cost effective. Unlike chemical based keratin treatments, this treatment will not do any harm and can be used whenever you like. In my personal opinion, this is a wonder treatment that leaves the hair soft and shiny.

- The mixture should be smooth and free of any lumps so make sure to patiently grind it till you get a smooth paste.
TO USE

- Wait until for 15 to 20 minutes and then shampoo and condition your hair as usual.
- Hair is so soft after using the treatment.
- I just used only shampoo to wash it off and did not condition my hair so as to show you how effective the treatment is.
- It made my hair soft,silky, shiny and very manageable. When I first tried this treatment, I was pleasantly surprised to see how smooth, soft and shiny it left my hair and I started using it regularly.
- This treatment can be used for all age groups and can be used for kids too.
- You can make slight alterations to the recipe if you like, but I found the best results with the recipe I've given.
