For 30 years I've dealt with the
humidity frizzy poof that was my head of hair.
Since moving out west I've come to quickly find a
whole new hair trouble….
Wintery Dry Hair.
Ends that are dry and fried beyond belief,
dry itchy scalp,
and fragile strands that want to give up and break.
After a quick trip to the pantry and then the medicine cabinet,
I present to you a very easy
DIY Organic Moisturizing Hair Mask
Ingredients:
1.5 Tbsp Organic Coconut Oil
1.5 Tbsp Organic Raw Honey
5 drops Peppermint Oil
5 drops Vitamin E Oil
Step 1:
In a small sauce pan mix all four ingredients and stir together over low heat.
You may need to vary the amount of honey and coconut oil that you use.
I have very thick shoulder length hair.
Step 2:
Transfer to a bowl.
Separate your hair into small easily workable sections.
Step 3:
With you bare hands apply the warm mixture to the sections of hair
focusing on the ends.
Warning: the mixture may be hot!
Wrap your hair up onto your head and wait about 40 mins before washing out
Tips:
Why bare hands?
Soak up some of that added moisture on those dry hands.
Why is this so messy?
Working with oil and honey can be a giant sticky mess!
Make sure that you wrap a towel over your shoulders so that you don't ruin your clothes.
I also applied in the tub so that anything that dripped didn't make an even bigger mess.
Don't waste your left overs!
I had just enough left over oily goodness to apply to my face and neck.
Coconut oil and honey makes a great face mask.
The oil softens and smooths your skin, while the honey heals and evens skin tone.
I just smeared it on and let it sit the entire time the hair mask was on.
