{Beauty} Hair Mask



I've had problems with my dry hair for quite sometime now. Ever since I started coloring it, it becomes unmanageable. The funny thing is I didn't bother doing anything about it. As much as I'm concern with the way I look, hair care isn't really one of my thing; until I saw pictures of me with my friends and notice how ugly it is. That's the time I knew I have to do something.



So yesterday I went on a major hair care shopping spree, from shampoo, conditioner to hair treatment. I'm telling you, it's not cheap, beauty does has it's price. But if you're the type who doesn't want to spend so much money on treatments then I suggest you try this Banana Avocado Hair Mask. It doesn't sound appetizing but it's meant to give your hair that gorgeous look. Perfect for those who have dry hair.





D.I.Y Banana Avocado Hair Mask

Ingredients

  • 1 medium banana
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 2 Tbsp honey

  6. Use twice a month to maintain healthy hair.
