Cardi B Credits Onions for Restoring Her Hair Back to Health
American rapper, Cardi B is peeling back the layers behind her beauty secrets as she has attributed the secret behind her healthy hair to a tear-inducing pantry staple – onions.
“My last 2 washes I been boiling onions and using the water to wash my hair,” the Grammy winner’s Aug. 12 Instagram message read. “I used to do this 6 years ago when I started my healthy hair growth journey. I stopped cause I got really lazy.”
Although one would expect for the onions to smell, Cardi pointed out that her homemade treatment is odorless, adding, “I notice [sic] that it’s been giving a shine to my hair.”
The 29-year-old posted close-up shots of her hip-length hair to showcase the progress she’s made. In one video selfie, the star’s hair gleamed in the sunlight and looked silky smooth.
Cardi didn’t dive any deeper into her regimen, but Healthline previously reported that there are benefits to incorporating onion juice into one’s routine.
“Onion juice may be effective for hair loss in some instances,” the outlet claimed. “It may also restore luster and shine. Onion juice could also prevent premature graying of hair and treat dandruff.”
