DIY Organic Hair Remedies: Deep Conditioning Mask

My 87-year-old grandmother has unbelievable baby soft hair, and she swears to have never even purchased one bottle of conditioner. So how does she do it? She credits her beautiful hair to the natural wonders found in her kitchen. She's the queen of the DIY homemade hair remedy.

I recently asked her to write down some her favorite natural and effective recipes for dry hair. Out of all of her homemade treatments, she wouldn't stop raving about one in particular: The Deep Conditioning Mask. And it only has 2 ingredients: Avocado & Mayonnaise.

Avocado Conditioning Mask Recipe:

  • Mix 1 small jar of real mayonnaise with « avocado in a medium sized bowl.

  • Squish the mixture with your hands until it turns a light green, minty color.

  • Apply the mask onto your hair, making sure you cover every strand from the scalp to the tip.

  • Cover your head with a shower cap, and leave on for 30 minutes.

  • Rinse thoroughly.
