Eat me, use me and tell others about me….

Over the years, I have found banana to be a household essential, not only because it is my number 1 five a day but also it comes in handy in my hair care regime. I use banana as a deep conditioner along with other ingredients such as olive oil, honey, egg and sometimes kale (leaves or powder). Prep time is usually less than 10 minutes and I normally condition my hair for an hour and then shampoo/ co wash after rinsing out the banana mixture from hair.

Ingredients:

• 1 banana
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 egg yolk
• a handful of kale leaves/ 1 tablespoon kale powder

Blend everything to a rich creamy consistency. Split hair into four parts and apply a generous amount of the mixture from roots to tips of hair. Cover hair with a shower cup (and perhaps put your feet up and enjoy a lovely cup of coffee/ tea within the 1 hour waiting time). Wash hair with water first and then shampoo/ co wash and condition as usual.

The result is amazing!
