Make An Avocado Hair Treatment!

Avocados aren’t just healthy for your body; they can work miracles on your hair! With 15% fat content, avocados are super moisturizing. They also are rich in several beneficial B vitamins, as well as vitamins E and K. Let your hair soak up some of their nutritional bounty by making your own avocado hair treatment right at home! Combine one half to one full avocado (depending on hair length), one egg yolk, and one half teaspoon of olive oil. Apply all over hair before shampooing, and leave on thirty minutes or longer. Rinse out, and shampoo and condition as usual for softer, shinier hair!

Go Nuts for Straight Hair!

From the exotic locales of Brazil and South Africa comes organic Babassu Oil- a light, non-greasy skin moisturizer that also works miracles on your hair. It’s a main ingredient in The Body Shop Macadamia Straightening Balm ($12.00). The long-lasting (we’re talking 18 hours!) formula with UV protectors and wheat protein comes in an easy to apply spray bottle. Apply to your towel-dried hair before heat styling for a glossy, smooth, frizz-free finish.
