Avocado And Olive Oil Hair Treatment: If your hair is dry, damaged and frizzy, use this soothing home remedy with olive oil and avocado as two ingredients. You can use this mix as avocado deep hair conditioner to moisturize your mane and restore its lustrous shine. Both these ingredients have moisturizing qualities and will leave your hair looking shiny and feeling soft. Avocado has biotin, a vitamin that helps to strengthen your hair. Olive oil smooths frizz, nurses hair damage and helps in removing tangles.

Method:

(1) Take 1 ripe avocado, 1/4 cup of steel-cut or rolled oats, 1/8 to 1/4 cup of olive oil and 1 cup of milk. Mash the avocado into a lump-free paste and mix it with 1/4 cup of oats. Add in 1/8 to 1/4 cup of olive oil, depending upon the extent of dryness of your hair. Mix in 1 cup of milk and stir thoroughly all the ingredients together, until the mixture turns into a smooth paste.

(2) Apply the mask onto your hair, starting from the scalp till the hair ends. Wait for 30 minutes, and rinse the mask out with water, as many times as needed to remove all traces of the mask. You may then shampoo and condition your hair as usual.

Natural Beauty Tips:

(1) While making an avocado or any fruit mask, blend or mash it thoroughly into a lump-free paste. If you have small fruit bits in your mask, it would be difficult to wash them out entirely. If you face such a situation, simply use a comb to remove the bits. It’s a tiresome process, but you will get the job done.

(2) If you have oily roots then don’t put the avocado mask onto the first inch or so of your hair. On the other hand if your hair is dry or frizzy, spread the mask all over your hair and scalp. Pay special attention to the hair ends, as that is where your hair is mostly damaged.

(3) If your hair is thin or limp, skip the deep conditioning masks, as they tend to weigh your hair down.

(4) Always try to dry your hair naturally, without using a hair dryer to avert damaged, frizzy hair.
