Happy Labor Day!
What did you spend your day doing? Well I actually finished styling my hair and just enjoyed my day off. Last night I washed and conditioned my hair as well as applied a protein treatment using 3 eggs, an avocado, and a few drops of rosemary essential oil. It was time for a protein treatment and I didn't have any packets of the aphogee protein reconstructor. So, I opted for the egg instead. The egg gave my hair the protein it needed and the avocado gave it a great bit of sheen. The rosemary helped to stimulate my scalp. The entire mixture also made my hair look darker after I rinsed and conditioned it. I really liked this hair mask/protein treatment.
Egg and Avocado Mix
3 eggs
1 large avocado
3 drops of rosemary
First, hand mix the 3 eggs in a bowl. Next, add one peeled and pitted avocado. Mix together using an electric hand mixer until smooth.
Last, apply a few drops of rosemary essential oil.
Apply the mixture to clean hair. Cover hair with a plastic cap and leave on for 15-30 minutes. Use heat if you would like. After leaving the mixture on your hair for 15-30 minutes, rinse hair thoroughly and apply a conditioner afterwards. Let the conditioner sit on your hair while you detangle then rinse with cool water. Apply a leave in conditioner and style as usual.
I tried corn rowing my hair for the fourth time and I must say that it turned out well. I still have a ways to go, but it is improving. As you can see, my edges are thin so I make sure that I am extra gentle while dealing with them.
I hope that you enjoy the remainder of your Labor Day!
Take care,

ReplyDeleteYour cornrows look wayyy better than mine would! I can flat twist all day but my cornrows are so sloppy & my hands get so tired.
