- egg yolk
- olive oil
- spoon / spatula
- small container
- shower cap / plastic bags
Grab an egg and separate an egg yolk from egg whites and put it in the small container. I don't like using egg whites on my hair because when I used the whole egg for the treatment, it made my hair a bit dry. But you can experiment with a whole egg and see if it works for you. The thing is I don't like wasting egg whites so what I do is fry and eat it before going to shower so that way nothing is wasted :)
Then I grab a fair amount of olive oil (again you can experiment and see how much oil is good for your hair) and mix it with the egg yolk using a spoon. And tadaaa.. your protein treatment mask is ready!!
After that wet your hair with lukewarm water then apply the treatment mask on your hair below ear level concentrating on the ends. Finish off with wrapping your hair with a shower cap or any plastic bag. Leave it on for atleast 15 to 30 minutes. What I like to do at that time is wash my body because the warm vapour from the shower helps your hair to absorb more nutrients (a bit like a hair steamer at salons).
Later remove the shower cap / plastic bag and wash your hair with lukewarm water and make sure it is not hot otherwise the egg will be cooked and it will smell funny. Then shampoo your hair properly and condition as usual.
This treatment has saved my hair and turned it from frizz ball to frizzfree :) Use this mask at least once a week and you will definitely notice some changes in your hair. Moreover this mask is so easy to make and these ingredients should be lying around your house and you never knew how good it is for your hair until now. So guys have fun experimenting and good luck!
Much love Pree xx
