Love Potions - DIY Deep Conditioner #1

Banana Avocado Deep Conditioning Treatment








Ingredients: 

1/2 avocado
1 overripe banana
2 tbs olive oil
3 tbs Aubrey Honeysuckle Rose (or your favorite moisturizing conditioner)
3 tbs water (optional)




Steps: 



Pour liquid ingredients into blender, adding solid ingredients after, and blend until mixture is smooth. Ensure there are no solid pieces or lumps in the mixture. Add more water to achieve desired consistency if necessary.

Apply to dry or damp hair, cover with a plastic and sit under a hooded dryer for a minimum of 30 mins.


Benefits:

This conditioner is super moisturizing. However, the avocado gives it a kick of protein. This potion is well-balanced as it:

  1. moisturizes
  2. strengthens
  3. increases manageability and
  4. provides slip which aids in detangling

I love this potion and hopefully you will too!


XOXO,
Abbi

  1. I learned the hard way that you've gotta use overripe bananas and very rip avocados or you won't get a soothe and creamy consistency. I love DIY kitchenista hair finds!

    1. That is soo true! And don't make the mistake of crushing with a fork either. Nope! A blender is absolutely necessary! lol
