Ingredients:
2 Ripe Bananas (for longer hair 3 bananas)
250ml / 1 cup Coconut Milk (for 3 bananas
use 300mls)
1tbsp Olive Oil
2tbsp Mayonnaise (yes straight from your
refrigerator)
1tsp Rose Water (100% natural not artificially
flavour)
Directions
Combine all the ingredients in a blender or
food processor and blend well. Once this is done I find that it is best to
apply the mixture to dry hair. You want to focus on applying it on your roots
first and then move down the hair shaft, paying attention to your ends. Cover
your hair with plastic wrap or any plastic bag and let sit for 30 minutes to
whenever. After you will rinse and apply your shampoo of choice and then
follow that with a moisturizing conditioner for about 5 minutes (this doesn’t
have to be an expensive conditioner, I use the Tresemme Luxurious Moisturizing
Conditioner). Then I apply my after wash
products (leave-in, moisturizer, and an oil).
You may ask why you need to apply another
conditioner if you already applied the mask, I find that this mask will
moisturise your hair but it won’t give it slip. So I prefer to use it before
shampooing. Most conditioners contain dimethicone which creates a film around the
hair shaft making the hair smooth and gives it slip. So I use a cheap
conditioner to give my hair the slip I love, plus the oils can leave your hair
feeling heavy should you apply the mask after shampooing.
The Mask Applied to my daughters hair, can you see the new growth (7 weeks post)
The Banana Coconut Milk Hair Mask
Letting her hair airdry
Whatever is left over i will just place it in the refrigerator until next shampoo day (the freezer is fine also)
Ladies if you try this mask let me know if you loved it or hated it.
