Yes, I know mayonnaise seems like the last thing you’d want to put on your hair, but it helps restore the moisture that is lost as a result of every-day styling. This mask works well for extremely dry and damaged hair. Not recommended for people with oily or thin hair (it can weigh down these hair types).
Supplies:
Short hair ¼ cup
Medium hair ½ cup
Long hair 1 cup
Hot, damp towel
Directions:
Spread the suggested amount for your hair length throughout wet or dry hair with fingertips. Once mayonnaise is evenly spread, use a wide-toothed comb and brush it through from scalp to ends. Once mayonnaise has been evenly combed through hair, wrap hair with hot, damp towel for 10 minutes. Wrapping will help to heat up the mayonnaise and make it easier for the hair to absorb. After 10 minutes, shower and use shampoo to cleanse hair of mayonnaise. Don’t fret if hair still feels coated after shampooing, it may take more than one time to fully rid hair of mayonnaise. Do not use conditioner after cleansing the hair, the mayonnaise is moisturizing enough and chances are, conditioner would weigh down the hair.

Have you actually done this?!
ReplyDeleteI have an avocado mask I got from Fred Meyer that I want to try but am too scared. Like you said stuff like this weighs down thin hair. Good idea though this may be the first time I buy mayo!
Yes, I've done this. Its been a while, but it does work. The key is to not use too much and make sure you wash it ALL out afterwards. Also, its not something to add to your daily routine...
