Deep condition you hair to add moisture.

Deep conditioning is part of a full hair-care routine. It opens the hair shaft and allows moisture to enter, repairing damaged or frizzy ends. A mixture of olive oil and egg restores moisture to your hair for a fraction of the cost of drugstore items. Does this Spark an idea?

Tips & Warnings

  • Make sure oil is not so hot that it cooks the egg!

    Great article! Some similar ones claim to be easy, but have hard-to find ingredients. This looks simple, I'll definitely try it!
