Coconut oil + banana + avocado

Step 01: Add one avocado, one ripe banana and two tablespoons of coconut oil in a blender jar. Blend it all together until it forms into a thick, smooth paste. Step 02: Strain this mixture through a cheesecloth to get rid of any chunks and to allow the hair mask to spread more effectively.

Step 03: Apply this mixture all over your hair and scalp. Cover your hair with a disposable shower cap and leave it on for about 30 minutes. Step 04: Rinse it off with a gentle shampoo and conditioner. Why this works – Loaded with essential fatty acids and vitamins, coconut oil is a great ingredient to infuse moisture into severely dry and damaged hair. Avocados are brimming with vitamin B, which strengthens hair and prevents breakage by improving elasticity. Bananas on the other hand, are full of potassium and natural oils, and provide deep nourishment to chemically processed and dry strands, as well as prevent split ends and breakage.

Milk + honey

Step 01: Heat about a cup of milk in a saucepan until it’s lukewarm.

Step 02: Add a teaspoon of honey into the mixture and gently stir until it completely dissolves into the milk.

Step 03: Apply this mixture all over your hair and scalp, concentrating on the areas that are super dry and frizzy. Let it rest for 20-30 minutes before rinsing it off with some cold water and a gentle shampoo and conditioner.

Why this works: Milk is a rich source of protein that helps in repairing damaged hair and adds some much-needed strength. Additionally, simply rinsing your hair with a bit of milk is enough to add incredible shine and lustre to dull and damaged tresses. Honey, on the other hand, is a natural humectant. This means that it draws moisture from the surrounding air and seals it into your hair and scalp to restore and revive damaged hair. This is a great hair mask for anyone with dull, chemically treated hair in need of some quick revival and repair.
