What is the benefit of whey for hair, how to cook it at home and use in hair care, as well as recipes, let's talk today.

Hair Benefits


Whey contains a number of vitamins, minerals and other substances that have a beneficial effect on the health of our hair. Namely:

  • nourishes roots and hair;
  • moisturizes;
  • promotes renewal and restoration of hair structure;
  • increases the strength of hair rods;

We solve problems

Whey is suitable for the care and recovery of all types of hair, but first of all, it has proven its effectiveness for:

  • dry hair
  • oily hair;

  • prevent loss;

How to make whey at home


Serum can be purchased at a store, in the market, or made at home. If you compare these three options, then store whey is the least effective. The fact is that it is not known which milk was used in its production, which food additives were included in it. In addition, industrial whey is designed for a long shelf life, which, of course, does not add to its beneficial properties.

If there is no time to make the serum yourself, then a product purchased on the market is a worthy option. It is made from natural homemade milk without any food additives and, we can say with confidence that it was not subject to boiling (yogurt was heated only to the temperature that was needed to get the cottage cheese).

And finally, the most reliable and proven way to get natural milk hair serum is to cook it yourself at home. How to do it?

Frozen Kefir

A package of fresh kefir is placed in the freezer and wait until it is completely frozen. Then we put a colander or strainer on the pan, where we put gauze in several layers and place frozen kefir. When it is completely thawed, then a gentle cottage cheese will remain in the gauze, and a useful and medicinal serum in the pan.

With this method, whey, without being exposed to high temperatures, completely retains all the useful and medicinal substances in its composition. For those who make kefir at home - this is the best option.

Souring Milk

Pour homemade whole milk into a saucepan and leave in a warm place for souring. To speed up the process, you can add a slice of rye bread. When the milk turns sour, remove the bread, and put the pan on a small fire and heat until the milk is curdled. Be careful not to heat the curdled milk strongly, otherwise the cottage cheese will turn out tough.


Remove the pan from the heat, cool the contents and strain through several layers of gauze. In the gauze there will remain high-quality home-made cottage cheese, and the liquid is a useful and therapeutic whey.

Adding Lemon Juice

This method is designed for quick preparation of whey. Squeeze the juice of one lemon in a liter of homemade whole milk, mix well and put on a small fire. During heating, the milk will curl. Remove the pan from the heat, cool the liquid and filter, as already described.

With this method, whey is still not quite “right”, since in its manufacture there is no process of fermentation (fermentation) of milk and, therefore, the resulting product does not contain beneficial bacteria and other useful substances associated with this process.
