Mix it up! - Recipes

I like to get creative sometimes-here are a few of my favorite recipes

No Blender Needed! - Deep Conditioner

Avocado Deep Conditioner: This recipe makes my hair super soft, moist and strong.

• 1 cup trader joe's organic mayonnaise
• 1 small avocado (blend EXTREMELY WELL no chunks)
• 1 beaten egg (gotta have some protein)
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 teaspoon Jamaican black Castor oil
• 1 teaspoon of coconut oil

Apply, comb through and let sit for 30 min minimum.

Tropical pre-poo treatment: not only does it smell like a free trip to the tropics but it adds additional moisture to the hair prior to doing a shampoo.

• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon EVOO
• 1 banana (blend EXTREMELY well, banana seeds can be tricky) (banana baby food is a good substitute)
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Apply to hair and let penetrate for 20-30 min. prior to wash.

SheaCoco-Whipped Shea Butter and Coconut oil: great for sealing ends and added moisture to hair.  Also good for soft twist outs.

• 1 cup: African Shea Butter
• 1 cup: Unrefined coconut oil

Blend well with a mixer until light and fluffy. Keep in a sealed plastic container and store in a cool area (if too hot it will melt to oil. If stored properly it should stay light and fluffy and it will melt in your hands easily before applying.
