How to use glycerin on your hair

Many hair and skin care products have glycerin. It is added to shampoos, moisturisers, soaps and lotions among other products. Glycerin absorbs water from its surroundings and this is what makes it an excellent ingredient for skin and hair care products. It is a sweet-tasting transparent thick liquid and can be easily dissolved in water. Here is how to use it on the hair:
Deep conditioner: Glycerin returns moisture back to dry hair and improves the scalp layer since it moisturises it. It can also be mixed with water to make a deep conditioner that will offer moisture and ample nourishment to dry hair.
