Hair Guacamole
Posted in Hair, Hair Archive, Haircare Recipes | Tuesday, January 26th, 2010
This is my favorite deep conditioner, and although I use store bought DC a lot, I keep coming back to this one!
Avocado/Mayo Deep Conditioner
1/2 of a RIPE soft Haas avocado meat mashed with fork well
1/2 cup regular mayonaise (DON’T leave this out, otherwise you’ll have pieces of avocado left in your hair!)
2tbsps of oil (I use raw coconut oil, but you can use jojoba, olive, grapeseed, etc.)
Put the avocado and the oil in a mini food processor or blender and blend, then add the mayo until smooth. Apply to hair from root to tip and cover with a plastic bag or plastic shower cap and wrap head with a towel. Leave on for a couple of hours, then rinse out with warm water. You can also sit under the dryer for 30mins if you’re in a rush.
Put any extra in the fridge (or add chopped tomatoes and urn it into a dip!)
Try it and tell me whatcha think!

Hi Savvy! Do you apply before you shampoo or after?
Hi Marissa! I apply it after I shampoo.
