Banana & Coconut Milk Hair Mask

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.

Ladies if you try this mask let me know if you loved it or hated it.
