How are you??? Are you currently facing the problem of dry and damaged hair??? Have your hair become lifeless lately??? Recently, my hair suffered a lot because I stopped caring for them at all. I used to go out without using a scarf and styled my hair a lot these days. So, my hair were absolutely ruined. That is why, I thought if you are struggling with this too, then my this post would definitely help.
Today, I wanted to share a hair care product that I absolutely cherish. It’s Himalaya Herbals Protein Hair Cream that claims the extra nourishment treatment for your hair. Himalaya is a really trusted brand when it comes to skin and hair care products because they are mostly natural. And that is why I love Himalaya Herbals Products.
About the Brand
Himalaya Herbals needs no introduction what so ever. I bet every household must have got their hands on at least on or the other product. You can check out their store here.
Himalaya Herbals Protein Hair Cream Review
As I mentioned above, that my hair had suffered a lot lately and the best way to get it back to healthier state is do to a protein treatment. Hence, I gave this one a try.
Himalaya Herbals Protein Hair Cream’s Appearance
Himalaya Herbals Protein Hair Cream comes in sturdy plastic tub with green cap. It is further covered with silver foil. The cap is a good fit and you don’t need to worry about it leaking.
As you can see in the pictures above, the cream is pure white in color and it is neither too thick nor too runny in consistency which makes it real easy to apply on your hair and scalp. The smell is nice and pleasant and not strong. You will love it trust me on that.

How to use Himalaya Herbals Protein Hair Cream?
It says on the pack, “Use it daily before and after hair wash. Massage on scalp and hair, leaving it for an hour before shampooing. Apply to damp hair after every wash.”
As you know at HCS we do things a bit differently. As in my previous article on hair porosity I shared that heat helps in opening cuticles which helps in better penetration for the moisture into the hair shaft. That is why, I took a small towel and dipped it into hot water and removed the excess water and kept the towel on my head and allowed the steam to pass through my hair and scalp.
Now after giving steam for 5 mins, part your hair in four equal sections and apply the cream evenly on your hair and scalp and leave it for about 1 hour. Now before washing the cream I again gave a little steam to my hair like I mentioned above (again for better penetration of cream into the hair shaft).
Now shampoo and condition your hair as usual. And you are done 😉 .
Note : Steaming is an additional step for better results and is entirely optional. If you are low on time, you can definitely skip it.
Its effects on my Hair
It made my hair more smooth and manageable than before and surprisingly my hair didn’t tangle at all for next two days. Although it did left a little bit of a greasy feeling on my hair.
Pros
