I have a serious fetish for all things hair and after trying out this recipe I MUST pass it on. You ladies who want to find an organic solution to the moisture protein balance have to give this a try. It won't weigh down your hair.. don't worry. But it will leave it super moist and your strands will noticeably (sp) feel stronger!
You need:
- A soft Hass Avacado
-Half a cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil ( I use the trader joes brand)
-A whole egg
Cut up the avacado and scoop out the flesh. The brown bits of flesh are too be used as well. It should be really mushy. Mash it up with the EVOO and once it's runny add the egg. I use my blender, it will give it a thick smooth texture.
Wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo, or regular shampoo. If you use alot of products I firmly suggest a clarifying shampoo to rid your hair of buildup.
Add this mask. It will be a lil cold, but you can warm it up for 30 secs to take the chill off.
Cover your head with a cap and a warm towel and relax for 30mins.
After 30 mins remove the cap. Your hair will be a lil sticky but that's okay. It's due to the egg.
Now rinse. I must stress. DO NOT USE HOT WATER!! It will cook the egg in your hair, use lukewarm water. Find a nice balance in temp, don't use cold water. This treatment isn't purely moisture so you don't want to rinse with cold water, that would only make your hair stiff. Again, make sure the water is lukewarm.
Massage your scalp to remove any bits of avacado out ( especially if you didn't use a blender to make this, the texture will be chunky if you don't but it's still all good)
Afterwards apply a good leave in. Your leave in will seep into your hair.
I usually apply a moisturizing conditioner afterwards for an hour, but remember that if you do choose to follow this up with a deeeeepp conditioner I strongly suggest that it's simply a moisturizing one. You already have given yourself a dose of protein with the mask. This combo always creates lush, thick, smooth, buttery hair.
You should notice a difference in the strength and elastcity of your hair. It will add shine, and eliminate frizz.

But I slept on the idea for YEARS!! My mom used it on me as a child, but I didn't notice the benefits of course. I just want to urge others to try it, they won't be sorry
family bonding time always melts my heart, lol.
