Hair Masks with Products you Already Own!

In order to get your hair into its healthiest, shiniest, most moisturized state, you may want to consider a hair mask treatment. These are all products you can find in your cabinets or fridge, so you can save that $15 for something special :)



Dry Hair
Combine three tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil with two eggs and apply the mixture to your hair. Let  it sit for 20 minutes before rinsing in the shower. The olive oil will help hydrate, while the protein in the eggs will promote healthy hair growth. (Just a hint, mostly all curly hair owners are in the dry category!)








ALL Hair Types
Use a ripened avocado and mix in a tablespoon of organic honey and allow it to sit for 20 minutes before rinsing it off in the shower. 

Avocados are rich in vitamin E and protein, which your hair needs to remain soft and healthy, meanwhile, honey is a natural antibacterial agent & I have also heard it is a humectant, which means that it will attract moisture from the air particles, leaving your hair less dry!





Oily hair

Combine 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar with the grated peel of an entire lemon and allow it to set for 15 minutes to absorb the excess oil from your scalp, and then rinse in the shower.

Apple cider vinegar will remove build up from styling products and conditioners and strengthen the hair shaft, leaving you with soft, shiny strands. It will also balance hair’s pH level, kill bacteria, and is a cure for dandruff.





DRY,  Flaky scalp

Mash together 1/2 of a ripe banana, add 2 tablespoons of honey and a few drops of almond oil. Allow it to set with a shower cap for 20 minutes before rinsing. 


Bananas can increase the moisture of your hair, smooth frizz and soothe your itchy scalp.
