DIY Hair Masks! 3 Deep conditioning, moisturizing and repairing hair masks! #Beauty #Hair #DIYBeauty

We LOVE us some DIY Beauty around these parts! I am literally obsessed with trying new things that I can make at home from face masks, to nail polish remover jars, makeup brush holders, seriously anything.  If there is one thing I hate, it’s spending money on things I can do myself at home. In the world of hair masks, I hate to spend money on a bottle or jar of one particular product. I don’t like my hair to get “used” to any one product for an extended period of time, I feel like it loses it’s purpose. Though don’t get me wrong, I LOVE me some store bought hair products too. I just like to try new things. I researched a lot over the years and have found so many different “at-home” hair masks. This way, you just whip it up and use it once and the next time you can try something new with products that you have at your house instead of spending an obscene amount of money on something that may or may not even work for your hair. Today I am going to share three of my FAVORITE masks that I rotate throughout the month and send you over to check out Karly’s DIY Hair Treatment too! 

Dry & Damaged DIY Hair Mask

DIY Egg Hair Mask! Full instructions & Super moisturizing! #beauty #hair
This mask is great for anyone with dry and damaged hair. It’s instantly moisturizing. The measurements for this mask are based on someone with shoulder length hair so for longer hair I would double the ingredients.
INGREDIENTS

  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon White Vinegar
  • 1 Egg

DIRECTIONS

  • Mix well
  • Apply generously to dry hair
  • Let sit for 15-20 minutes
  • Shampoo & Conditioner hair as normal

DIY Banana Hair Mask

DIY Banana Hair Mask! Full instructions! #beauty #hair
This hair mask is great for when you need a little extra moisture and I have also found that it helps cut down on frizziness. I love using this in the summer, as well as after I have dyed my hair for some added moisture. It also leaves your hair smelling amazing!
INGREDIENTS

  • 1 Banana
  • 1 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
  • 3 Spoonfuls of Mayonnaise

DIRECTIONS

  • Mix well
  • Apply to dry hair generously, concentrating on the root
  • Leave mask on hair for 30 minutes
  • Shampoo normally

DIY Deep Conditioning Mask

DIY Strawberry Hair Mask! #beauty #hair
This mask works as a deep conditioner and is probably my favorite of the three. It leaves your hair feeling weightless and looking shiny and smooth.
INGREDIENTS

  • 8 Strawberries
  • 2 Tablespoons of mayonnaise

DIRECTIONS

  • Blend well to form a cream
  • Apply generously to wet hair
  • Leave mask on for 15 minutes
  • Shampoo as normal

DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE DIY HAIR MASK?

    I really want to try these – though I am SO surprised about the mayo! They all look so delicious to eat, but then I see there’s mayo! Anyways, I just totally want to slather my hair in all of them!

Instagram post 2192621539170211925_31480883 We’re hitting that time of year where every diet/program/tummy tea/magic pill is going to be shoved down your throat. Your social media feed will be full of it. It’ll be on billboards when you’re driving. You’ll start seeing ads for “Special Pricing for women for just $10/mth” because you know we only really care if women are fat. Must change the women. 🙄 Drink this for weight loss. Cut the carbs. Don’t eat that. Juice cleanse this detox tea that. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
This is your reminder that your size does not define you. Your worth is not held in a number on a scale. The tag in those jeans? It means nothing. You can be healthy at ANY size. BMI is bullshit. Sugar is not a sin. Carbs are fine. Exercise is not a punishment. Food does not have a moral compass. That piece of cake does not equal failure. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
In years past I’ve felt pressured to have a weight loss related goal or resolution when entering the new year. Sometimes that feeling was crippling. And this year? IDGAF. Not one single fuck. This is me 🤷🏼‍♀️ If you have a weight loss goal, that’s cool. I’m just here to remind you that you don’t NEED one to be the best version of you. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
If you’re looking for non-weight related goals for the new year... here are mine: ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
• Get Stronger ⠀
• Take no shit ⠀
• Sleep more ⠀
• Travel my state ⠀
• Drink more water ⠀
• Try a yoga class ⠀
• Take the train to NYC ⠀
• Go to the beach more⠀
• Lift heavier⠀
• More date nights⠀
• Be still⠀
• Read more books ⠀
• Nurture connections⠀
• Make 2020 my bitch ⠀

The last few days I’ve been feeling off. Down? Maybe.. Anxious? Absolutely. Stressed? Yep. Work drained me. Jim got sick so our schedule is out of whack. I’ve felt like there’s not enough time in the day to do everything I think I should be doing. Deadlines. My cats knocked over a full glass of soda onto my just cleaned floor. I slept on the couch to try to stay away from Jims cold and woke up miserable. I thought all day it was a day earlier then it was. I hated my dinner. All tiny little things that trigger my anxiety when happening all at once. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
Here’s a strange way my anxiety and depression presents. Whenever I even feel it starting to creep in a tiny bit I get SO ANGRY at myself. Like I’ve done something wrong even when I know I haven’t. I get angry at myself for not having a plan to turn it around. Full on rage that I can’t even figure out why it’s happening. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
Usually when that happens I’ll force myself to figure it out. Plan it out. Make a list. But right now? Right now I’m choosing to just sit with myself. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
We all deal with the shit that comes with life. Big or small. Life is sometimes a bitch. And that’s fine. We get to do it all again tomorrow. Just a gentle reminder that it’s okay to not be okay. It’s okay to just stop and let your body rest. It’ll all be there in the morning. Give yourself permission to just be still if you must. ■ ⠀
