Rice milk and honey: Honey and rice milk will help keep your hair moisturized and give it a perfect shine to your hair. Mix the rice milk with two spoons of honey. Apply the mixture on the ends of your hair and scalp, leave it on for about 30 minutes and wash it with shampoo if you prefer. This will leave a sweet fragrance and, if repeated once every week, can leave you with incredible results too.
