Nourishing DIY Banana Conditioner for Dry or Damaged Hair

Beware that this recipe will confer all the benefits mentioned in the 5 Benefits of Bananas for Natural Hair article but if the banana is not blended to a pulp you will have gunk in your hair that is sooooo hard to remove. That's what happened to me the first time but the formula was so good that I still tried it again!

This homemade hair recipe will help to improve your hair's manageability by loosening and softening your curls.

Ingredients

• 1 blend a very ripe banana (or use baby food banana as Shicann suggested in the comments - brilliant idea)
• 1 egg yolk
• 2 to 3 tablespoons cream (single or double). Use milk if you don't have cream.
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 teaspoon argan oil
• 5 drops of each of the essential oils: lavender, thyme, rosemary, cedarwood; 20 drops of peppermint essential oil.
  

Method

Blend the ingredients together in a bowl.

Application

Work through hair. Cover head in a shower cap for 30-45 minutes. Rinse out with your regular conditioner.

Storage

It’s better to use this all in one go but if you must store use within 3 days.
