• 1 egg
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp castile soap
• 1/2 cup water or herbal tea
• 5 Drops of essential oil of your choice (optional)
Combine all in blender and whip until smooth. Shampoo with mixture using warm,
not hot water for the shampoo and rinse. Store any remaining shampoo in the
refrigerator for use the next day.
Each time you shampoo your hair gently massage your scalp with the pads of your
fingers in a circular motion, this will encourage a healthy scalp so increase shine
and condition as well as encouraging growth.
Use a hot oil treatment once or twice a week. Deep conditioning can help keep hair
manageable. Warm one tablespoon of jojoba, avocado or olive oil in the palm of
your hand; massage into hair; place a plastic shower cap over your head for 30 to
60 minutes; rinse out with a gentle shampoo.
Once layers get quite long, comb in a zigzag parting. This will create body and
make growing out layers work for you rather than against you.
Many fruits and vegetables can be used as natural hair products. Mashed avocado
and mayonnaise are great moisturizers for dry hair, and whipped eggs and yogurt
(one egg to three teaspoons of yogurt) give hair great luster. Just massage them
into the hair, place a shower cap over your hair for 20 to 30 minutes and rinse off
with a gentle shampoo.
