How to Make the Most Effective Onion Hair Treatment at Home
There are a few popular ways to prepare onion for hair. The classic is fresh onion juice, but mixing it with honey (as seen in many viral before-and-after photos) reduces the strong smell and adds extra moisture.
Basic Onion Juice Recipe
- Peel and chop 2–3 medium red or white onions.
- Blend them into a paste or grate finely.
- Strain through a cheesecloth or fine sieve to extract the juice (you’ll get about ¼ cup).
- Optional: Let it sit for 30 minutes to maximize potency.
