How to Do a Hair Wrap

Caring for your hair and scalp is hassle-free when you make your own natural homemade hair wrap. All you have to do is find the ingredients that you need in the cabinets and refrigerator. This homemade hair wrap will nourish and foster healthy hair as well as protect it from chemical and environmental damage.

Things You'll Need

• Avocado
• Honey
• Lemon juice
• Egg yolk
• Almond oil
• Olive oil

Instructions

1. Mash one fourth of an avocado until it is smooth. Stir in 1 tsp. of honey and 1 tsp. of lemon juice.

2. Separate the yolk of one egg and beat until smooth. Add 1 tsp. of olive oil. Combine all the ingredients together and mix well.

3. Apply the mixture evenly throughout the hair. Massage the scalp so that the oils and nutrients will seep into the pores. Wrap in plastic wrap and let absorb for 20 minutes.

4. Know that avocado nourishes hair with Vitamins A, E and other natural oils. Honey and lemon juice revive hair and boost shine. The protein in the egg yolk strengthens the hair while giving it volume and body. The almond and olive oil moisturize and clarify the scalp.

5. After 20 minutes, take down the hair wrap and rinse with cool water. Rinse out as much as possible, then shampoo and condition as usual.
