It works great to improve the hair’s elasticity and is immensely rejuvenating and softening for dry, dehydrated scalp conditions. With so many benefits you are in for an awesome treat.

Note: Honey has a mild bleaching effect over time, and can lighten your hair color. If you don’t want to alter your hair’s color then substitute it for dark molasses.

Avocado mask is excellent for those who want to moisturize as well as strengthen their hair – especially people with fine, brittle hair. The fats in the avocado – oleic acid and palmitic acid – are easily absorbed by the scalp and hair. Plus, these fats also coat your hair and form a protective barrier, reducing the moisture loss and keeping hair soft and flexible. The natural proteins in the avocado strengthen the hair shaft, and add body and shine to your hair. Avocados also contains vitamins A, D, E and phytosterols, all of which nourish your scalp skin and also help with itchy, irritated scalp. With the goodness of fats, vitamins and protein, avocados are nature’s hair balancing formula.

Seal the Moisture
If your hair is highly porous it will lose moisture more rapidly, leaving your hair dry again. To keep the moisture from escaping too quickly, do not forget to seal the moisture inside the strands. Plant oils and butters make wonderful sealants. You can choose oils such as olive, sweet almond, sesame, avocado, castor Or butters such as shea, cocao (preferably whipped with some oil), babassu and murumuru. Take a pea size amount of butter (or 2 to 3 drops of oil) in the palm of your hand, rub your hands together, then work it through your hair, paying attention to the ends.
