1
Boil a pot of water and add a carrot. Continue boiling until the carrot is soft and easily penetrated when speared by a fork.
-
2
Cut the banana and the boiled carrot into small pieces.
-
3
Toss the cut up carrot and banana into a blender and puree. It is important to make sure they are well blended. If there are still chunks in the mixture, they will dry in your hair and become difficult to wash out.
-
4
Pour the banana and carrot mixture into a bowl and stir in honey and olive oil. Mix ingredients together well.
-
5
Massage the mixture into your hair, coating it completely. Cover with a plastic cap. Leave the carrot-banana conditioner in your hair for at least 45 minutes or up to 8 hours, if you have the time.
-
6
Wash the mixture out of your hair. Shampoo and rinse well to avoid sticky residue from the honey.

Tips & Warnings
Warm the honey before adding it to the hair conditioner. When the honey is warmed it becomes thinner and is easier to pour and mix.
Applying the conditioner to hair can be messy. Try wearing gloves to make clean up a little easier.
