The Mixstress Workshop | Avocado Hair Mask

20130213 201440 The Mixstress Workshop | Avocado Hair MaskI have a love/hate relationship with avocados; sometimes I love them in my salads and smoothies and other times I feel sick at the thought of an avocado passing my lips. I don’t know why, but what I do know is that I love love love avocados on my hair. Its packed with protein so it helps to strengthen the hair and treat any damage from colouring and heat. Mayonnaise is also another source of protein for your hair as it contains eggs so mixing the avocado and mayonnaise together makes it a super protein treat for your locks but it’s not quite super without honey! Honey, draws moisture to the hair so if your hair’s particularly parched because of the winter weather then this is a mask for you.

YOU’LL NEED

1 avocado

1 tablespoon of honey

1 tablespoon of mayonnaise

A Night In and Some Hair TLC!

When you have a load of assignments to work on as well as a job and some other projects, life can get a little tedious and mundane with the odd panic attack. Lately I haven’t taken the time to pamper myself as often as I should which is very unlike me as I always take break no matter how urgent something is. But my idea of a quick pampering treat is a tub of ice-cream (I love the ChokABlok Billionaires Shortcase Ice-Cream), lighting my new Laura Mercier candle set and sitting back on the sofa reading a magazine with a hair mask working its magic on my parched locks.

A few of the hair masks I’d recommend:

Herbal Essences Seductively Straight Sleekening Intensive Straight*

Joliette Intensive Conditioning Hair Mud Mask*

Alterna Bamboo Smooth Kendi Intense Moisture Masque*

Wella System Professional Hydrate Mask*
