Noticing your hair is in desperate need for a protein mask and you've ran out? No worries make your own right at the comfort of your home! Sometimes we tend to forget that nature offers us a variety of health benefits and when it comes to hair you can bring it back to life with this simple yet powerful recipe and all you'be needing might be right inside your kitchen pantry!
For this amazing hair mask we'll be using two ingredients, mayonnaise and avocados and that's it! In case you didn't know, Mayonnaise makes an excellent deep-conditioning hair treatment and mixed with avocado is a powerful combo.
So why does it work? Mayonnaise contains eggs that are packed with proteins that provide nourishment to your hair. It can also help eliminate head lice. Mayonnaise, when used as a hair mask, adds shine and strengthens hair from root to tip. The unique ability to add shine is one of the best benefits of doing this treatment regularly. If you have dull or dry hair, you’ll want to give mayo a try. It’s been known to give natural hair more luster.
The main ingredients in mayonnaise are egg and oil. The high amount of protein in eggs helps strengthen and thicken hair follicles. Olive and canola oils deeply moisturize hair. The healthy properties of mayonnaise also promote hair growth and reverse damage from heat and coloring.
When it comes to hair, avocados really “shine”. Historical evidence shows that as far back as early Egypt people used avocado to prevent hair loss and as a natural moisturizer. Today we still use it for its moisturizing properties; it makes hair shiny and supple and keeps the hair and skin moisturized. Perhaps the best way to utilize the avocado’s many beneficial properties for hair is as a mask.
