These 10 home beauty remedies sound totally off-the-wall, but ‘don’t knock it before you’ve tried it’. There is one point that’s indisputable, they will give you some ultra-benefits, but still promise to be interesting in application.

1. Coca-Cola Hair Hack
It’s probably the most unexpected beauty recipe you’ve ever heard from Hollywood divas. Suky Waterhouse is the owner of well-groomed hair waves. One day she shared this wacky trick with ‘US Weekly’. We all know it’s impossible to get perfect waves having your hair washed. So all you need is to give a shot from a bottle of Coke to your hair, then tousle it with the fingers and blow dry – good to go!
Here’s what happened: Coke consists of sugar and phosphoric acid. Sugar makes the hair fuller by sticking the locks together. The hair cuticle tightens because of the low Ph and the curls become more defined.
2. Mayonnaise Hair Mask
This absolute shape killer can reanimate your hair. Just imagine this forgotten item can appear on your shopping list. Bet you’ll be proud to buy it knowing the true purpose. (I felt really superior at checkout knowing it was going on my hair and not down my throat to add pounds to my slim body. Pity those who glob it on their sandwiches). I know it’s the first time you’ve heard it, but you don’t need to buy a low fat mayo for your hair. In fact the high fat mayo is actually better for applying on your hair! Prepare your hair with a little bit of warm water (it shouldn’t be soaking wet). Next, rub the mayo into your hair using as much as you think necessary for your length of hair, wrap the hair with a shower cap and a towel on the top. Catch the magic within 20 minutes. Don’t forget to wash it off!
Here is what happened: Mayo consists of egg yolks and olive oil. Both of them are natural sources of lean fat. That’s all you need to have your hair moisturized and glossy.
3. Baking Soda For Fresh Breath
The embarrassing problem of bad breath is a condition we all have experienced. The piquant food, fizzy lemonades and bad habits leave their mark. Each one of us has our own ‘oral secret’, starting with the corn bubblegum and oral sprays to the expensive rinses and pills. You’ll lose nothing if you try this low cost method in the comfort of your kitchen. All you need is to add a small amount of baking soda onto your toothbrush and rinse it with water after brushing. To get a natural soothing oral cavity rinse just dissolve two teaspoons of soda in a glass of warm filtered water.
So don’t waste your time, go and kiss Him!
Here is what happened: Bicarbonate of soda balances the levels of acid in your mouth. Through the chemical compounds it works like a bactericide to beat the acid formations and microbes.

We won’t hesitate to ask a stranger who seems to possess perfect curles about what products she uses to get such terrific results. If I tell you to try egg yolks as a shampoo substitute, you may begin backing away from me as if I’m nuts! Have no fear, this is for real and I am NOT crazy! Mix 3 eggs with a small amount of war water, add 2 drops of olive oil and massage this brew into your scalp and for the full length of your hair. It all gets kinda foamy in 3-4 minutes!
