Garlic is a good food to eat but if you cut it wrong, your breath can be really bad. Learning when to pull garlic out of your hair can save you from embarrassment. Pulling the entire bulb out is one way to do it but if you cut too much or end up losing a lot of garlic pieces, you may not want to risk burning your scalp. Learning how to pull out garlic cloves safely can make a big difference in how your hair looks like and in your health. It’s always best to be safe than sorry.

When you notice the first tell-tale signs that you have pulled a clove of garlic, stop what you are doing right then and go get a glass of water to cool your face down. Once your head is cool enough, take a dab of ointment or petroleum jelly and rub it into your scalp. Do this for a few minutes. You may need to repeat the process if your head is red and inflamed.

After you have done this, wash your hair as well as the area with garlic and rinse with water. Once you have washed your hair, squeeze a garlic clove or two out and put them into your freezer for about an hour. This will help you create a fun and unique present for your girl or boy friend. Before you store it in the freezer, open up the bagged ones and allow the contents to defrost. You may have to replace some of the contents with fresh ones but it should be worth it since the original smell and taste of the present will remain.

As soon as you can stand up, take a clean cotton ball or any other small cloth, dip it into olive oil and gently massage it into your scalp. This will loosen up any clumps of garlic that may be stuck in your scalps. If your clumps don’t come out on their own, you may need to use a sharp pair of kitchen scissors to cut them out. This method works best when you have pulled the clumps of garlic because of the amount of oil that can be found in the skin.

Once you have removed all of the garlic from your scalp and neck, store it in a sealed container in your freezer. It may take several days for the garlic to fully defrost. Just be patient. When you do thaw it out, you’ll immediately notice the difference in the way that your hair looks and feels.

When you want to smooth your hair, use a head rub made specifically for head lice treatment. Make sure that you use all natural ingredients so that there are no adverse reactions. Since this is only a home remedy for head lice, many people use it. However, you should make sure that you are not allergic to the ingredients in the head rub before using it to treat your head.
