Growing your hair out is certainly no overnight task. It can take months for your hair to simply grow an inch in length. And of course, that can be pretty frustrating. But sometimes, all your hair needs is a little bit of help. And one of the most effective things you can use on your hair is lemon. That's right! Lemons contain properties that can help boost the growth of your hair. So, without further ado, take a look at some of these natural remedies that can help give your hair the boost it needs.

Lemon juice and coconut water - For this one, you'll need 1 tbsp lemon juice and 1 tbsp coconut water. Mix these two ingredients together and then apply the mixture to your scalp. Massage it for a few minutes and leave it on for another 15-20 minutes. Rinse your hair with a mild shampoo to get the mixture out.

Lemon juice, olive oil and castor oil - You'll need 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp castor oil, 4-5 drops of lemon essential oil. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and then heat the mixture until it is lukewarm. Then apply it to your scalp and massage well for a few minutes. Once done, leave it on for an additional 20 minutes and rinse it off with a mild shampoo. Opt for this remedy once or twice a week for best results.

Lemon juice - You'll need the juice of one lemon and 1-2 tbsp water. Mix these two ingredients together and then use a cotton pad to apply the mixture to your scalp. Massage well and do not let the mixture sit in your hair for more than ten minutes. Wash your hair thoroughly afterwards.

So, now that you know how lemon can help, go opt for these remedies and stay tuned for more updates.
