Hello Bombshells, I figure since I have a few new subscribers I would go ahead a share one of my recipes or two because I promised another.
Well if you remember the
Palmers DC Review you’d remember what horrible shape it left my natural hair in. I continued to deep condition in order to restore my hair. I even bought an all natural herb conditioner which did a great job softening but my hair even more frizzy but I appreciated the softness. I was so distraught I thought about cutting my hair off to start over. My hair was lifeless and dry. I was given a recipe heard on Oprah meant for dry hair. So I tried it in a last attempt to salvage what I had.
I mixed it up with a few hair brain ideas that had popped it to mind that I researched, and this is what I got
My hair was even better than normal. I had softness, shine, and curls to die for.
Deep Condition: Avocado Whey
Mixture: You should be able to measure the amount you need by knowing your hair. I have a TWA so I used
· 3 Tbls Mayonnaise
· 2 Tbls Olive oil
· 1 Egg
· ½ Avocado
Massage the mixture into your scalp, wrap a warm towel around your head to help penetrate your scalp or sit under a low heat dryer. Wait 20 minutes then rinse with luke warm water. ( I left mine in overnight)
Avocado and Olive oil was to restore moisture to my hair if you restore real moisture you eliminate frizz. Restore the bounce back I needed protein. This is where the Mayonnaise and Egg come in.
Here’s my secret weapon for protein. Protein Whey. Yes the nutritional supplement shake you drink to create muscle mass can also benefit your hair. Whey, is a byproduct of cheese-making, it’s been used to strengthen hair, help it grow faster and assist in the prevention of hair loss. I shook about 1 Tbls in my Avocado mixture. I got all my bounce back. Yay, bet you found out about something new today… unless my news has already got around, which is great!
Recipe 2
Open up your hair shaft!
· 1 Tsp Baking Soda
· Any amount of your favorite conditioner.
Baking soda is a Base. It opens up your hair cuticle which makes this wash ideal for deep conditioning, oil rinses, and a good cleanser after long periods of not being able to wash your hair. Remember what goes up must come down. To close hair cuticle and lock in all the good things you put in, use A vinegar mix ¼ vinegar ¾ water to close cuticle bring your hair PH level back down to around 4.
