I forgot how much I used to love doing homemade hair masks, and I don't know why I ever stopped doing them. Since I had no groceries in my house at the time, I wanted something that would be really simple to do, and good for very dry/damaged hair. So I found this one and it was so easy to do, with great results!
Here is the recipe I used:
2 Tablespoons Honey
3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
(I actually doubled it because my hair is so thick)
You combine those ingredients in a bowl and microwave for around 15-30 seconds. Put it all over your hair and cover with a shower cap. Let this sit for around 30 minutes and then wash it off with shampoo and conditioner.
After I straightened my hair how I normally do, (which can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCpKldwSXGg) I found that my hair took less time to get straight since it wasn't as damaged (a huge plus!!) I also noticed that my hair was a lot shinier and had a more moisturized feel to it. It felt a little oily, but since my hair was so dry to begin with, it was actually nice to feel it that way.
Would I suggest this to everyone? Definitely not. I think the olive oil can be way too greasy on many people, and you should only use this if your hair is very dry & damaged.
Overall, I would definitely use this again!
