Any type of milk can be used but for better results, it is advisable to use thicker milk. You can even use coconut milk which gives better results. In case you opt to use coconut milk, add lemon juice from half a lemon to it. Keep the mixtures in the fridge and let it settle in for about an hour. Instead of natural milk, you can also work with powdered milk. For additional benefits, you can smash a banana or add some honey to the mixture.

You need to be extra careful while applying the milk mixture to your hair. Every strand of the hair needs to be covered from the roots to the tips for the best results. Make sure that every strand is as milky at the tips as it is at the roots. Flip your hair and don't miss the inner hair too. This step is followed because you don't have a part of your hair to remain wavy.

Using a wide toothed comb, detangle your hair. This will unable the milk from forming lumps in the head and would also let your hair become straight and avoid them from curling.

Let the mixture settle on the head for a good half an hour. The milk needs to soak into each and every strand and straighten it. So, it will require a while to do its magic. Meanwhile you can leave your hair open and do other chores.

The final step is to get rid of the mixture from the hair. You can use the regular shampoo and conditioner. Rinse off the milk using lukewarm water. You can follow your daily beauty regime after this. Let the hair dry naturally. You get naturally straighter hair.

This natural process of straightening your hair will work on wavy hair but doesn't have much of the effect on curly hair. Do let us know in the comments section below, if you have tried the easy, home recipe for straight hair.
