Coconut and Avocado Mask

Olive oil and egg yolk, these two ingredients are very good for helping your hair. First, massage your hair with olive oil. Then, whisk the yolk of an egg and apply to your hair, massaging from roots to the ends. Let this mixture rest in your hair for about 10 minutes. It is recommended to do this procedure once a week. The results should be very visible.

Avocado and Egg Mask

Place in a bowl the contents (meat) of an avocado and mash it with a fork until it forms a paste. Then add the egg yolk and mix very well. Once your are done, you can put the mask on your hair. Leave it on your hair for at least 15 minutes. It is important to brush your hair for 5 minutes at the beginning of this process. Then, rinse and wash your hair with your usual shampoo.

After washing your hair, massage the scalp with the infused oil that you have made.
