Don't Let Your Hair Get Dry and Damaged, Use a Home-Made Deep Conditioning Treatment









The beauty world has come up with many new and
improved techniques for styling hair. However,the more straightening we do, curling, coloring and other hair techniques, the more important it is to deep condition and care for our hair. Hair can easily get dried out and damaged from over styling and product build up. Here are some deep conditioning treatments you can do from home every one to two weeks.
It may not be appetizing, but it definitely works! Your hair will be glowing with shine right after your first treatment. The treatments are not only effective, but also affordable, you probably already have most the ingredients at home.
Marvel with Mayo
Ingredients:
  1. Allow all ingredients to adjust to room temperature and then mix them together in a bowl.
  2. Wash hair thoroughly and towel dry until damp. While the hair is damp, saturate the mayo mixture through your hair, applying extra saturation on the ends. The ends of the hair tend to be the driest and is where those dreadful "split ends" occur.
  3. Bunch your hair together in a large ball and place on the top of your head. Entrap the hair inside a shower cap or you can even use a plastic grocery bag.
  4. Run a blow dryer around you head to create more heat and then wrap your head in a towel to trap in the heat. The heat will help open your hair follicles and allow the moisture to sink in.
  5. Let the mixture sit for 10-20 minutes.
  6. Rinse out the mayo mixture using luke warm water. Do NOT shampoo! Any left over oils will just continue to condition your hair until your next shampoo.
Amazing Avocado
Ingredients:
  • one full jar of original mayonnaise
  • half of a ripe or over-ripe avocado
  1. Mash the avocado using the back of fork until it's soft and creamy.
  2. Mix avocado with mayo until the conditioner is all one color and well blended.
  3. Work the conditioner through your hair using your fingers, again you'll want to give some extra attention to the ends of your hair.
  4. Cover your head with a warm damp towel and allow the hair to relax and recondition for about 20 minutes.
  5. Rinse with cold water and enjoy your new soft and glamorous hair.
Hair mask are both easy and fun. Make a party out of it on a girls night in. Make sure to save you left over avocado and make a delicious guacamole dip!
