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

I have an awesome DIY for you ladies today! 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 because I don’t like my hair to get “used” to any one product for an extended period of time because I feel like it loses it’s purpose. So I researched a lot over the years and have found so many different “at-home” hair masks. That 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.

Dry and Damaged Hair Mask 
DIY Egg Hair Mask! Full instructions & Super moisturizing!
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
Banana Hair Mask 
DIY Banana Hair Mask! Full instructions!
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
Strawberry Deep Conditioning Mask 
DIY Strawberry Hair Mask!
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

    Great ideas! I’ve done avocado hair masks before and still do. Just mash up an avocado add olive oil and mix it well, apply to hair let sit 20 mins and wash like
    Normal. It adds moisture and texture which I love.

    I make my own hot oil treatments changing out my favorite essential oils of the moment and using coconut oil from the kitchen. I don’t think I’ve ever done a diy hair mask though. I should try one of these out.

    Ill definitely try the strawberry one. I use apple cider vinegar as a rinse once a week and i also use another diy recipe ( rosemary oil. Lavender oil. Basil oil. Burdick root and aloe vera gel for itchy scalp and to help promote hair growth). Second one was expensive but i like the wayy scalp feels after i use it

    Can these recipes be doubled and refrigerated, or will they spoil.

  31. Angela Peters says

    November 7, 2014 at 10:00 pm

    I haven’t tried to refrigerate them, I think they would spoil though.

“The black and white photo challenge started as “The black and white photo challenge started as a way for women to raise their voice. To stand in solidarity with the women we have lost.

In 2019, Turkey had nearly 500 RECORDED femicides. ⁣

The Global Burden of Armed Violence 2014 database shows that between 2007 and 2012, on average, 60,000 women were killed violently around the world. ⁣
⁣
A total of 87,000 women were intentionally killed in 2017. More than half of them (58 per cent) ̶ 50,000 ̶ were killed by intimate partners or family members, meaning that 137 women across the world are killed by a member of their own family every day. More than a third (30,000) of the women intentionally killed in 2017 were killed by their current or former intimate partner ̶ someone they would normally expect to trust.⁣

#WomenSupportingWomen looks a lot like putting in work to actively combat and also recognize violence against women. It looks like voting for political figures who don’t want to take the rights of women away. It looks like donating to causes that actively fight for these women. ⁣

1️⃣ My hair has been over 50 different colors. Some of them all at the same time. It’s naturally blonde though⠀⁣

2️⃣ I went to an all girls catholic high school and was asked not to take Spanish 3 because I talked too much 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
3️⃣ I have two cats, a dog, and a husband that I’ve been with since I was 16 years old⠀⁣
⠀⁣
4️⃣ I’m a double ♊️ which means I’m talkative, fiercely loyal and endlessly curious. Paired with being an enneagram 8 and it probably also means I’m a little bit psycho 🤣⠀⁣

5️⃣ I listen to murder podcasts to fall asleep.⠀⁣

🔟 Creating this community has been one of my favorite things about life. What will you find here?! Easy beauty tips and tutorials, attainable fashion, endless Amazon finds, but also the UNCOMFORTABLE stuff: pap smears, depression, anxiety, the effects my husbands addiction had on our marriage, eating disorders, struggles with fertility, body acceptance, and being comfortable in your own skin. I try to keep it as real as humanly possible. Being so vulnerable all of the time isn’t the easiest thing but if it helps just one person feel less alone, I’m good! ⠀⁣

Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thin Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. ⁣
⁣
We’re about two hit two years since Jim entered rehab and I’m forever proud of the changes he made and the man he has become⁣
⁣
For the person reading this who loves an addict. It’s changed you, I know. It made you a little harder to reach. It made getting out a bed a little rough. It’s isolated you from groups of friends. Your hearts a little more closed off then it once was. Your trust is a little bit broken. You’ve felt more alone then you ever have. You’ve felt judged. You’ve felt betrayed. You’ve felt at fault.⁣
⁣
Whether you’re past it or still in the trenches. I want you to know some things. ⁣
⁣
I need you to know that it’s not your fault. I need you to know that you could not have done anything differently. I need you to know that you can’t cure it. You didn’t cause it. And you can’t control it. ⁣
⁣
Most of all I need you to know that it gets better. I need you to know that it’s ok to feel happiness again. It’s ok to put yourself first. It’s ok to take care of your. ⁣
⁣
And you’re not alone. ⁣
⁣
I promise you that there’s a light on this side of the tunnel just waiting for you to walk through. And that light doesn’t mean it’s over, it’s just there to guide you. Because every day could be a battle. ⁣
⁣
I stayed for the battle. But that’s not the only way. If you need to leave that’s okay too. Either way. You have to get to that light. ⁣
⁣
Don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Go to a meeting yourself. Grab a book (Co-Dependent No More, was helpful for me) listen to a podcast. Get yourself a village. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF⁣
