Honey Be Deep Conditioner




Hair Looking a Little Thirsty?.... Me Too, Girl.

So I needed to wash my hiar... but I had no deep conditioner. For me, whenever my I wash my hair it looks super thirsty... super dry. I hate it and without deep conditioner it looks even worse. However, I was looking online the night before at hair recipes including honey. I also knew that I had a full bottle of One n' Only's Keratin Conditioner. So I took an empty 8oz. container I had and covered the bottom with a thick layer of the conditioner. I figured the honey would stick to the bottom and make it hard to stir evenly. I then added a thin layer of honey ontop of the conditioner. I repeated this process til the container was filled. I stirred the mixture til it was one solid colored.

I washed my hair as I normally do. By the way, I wash my hair in plaits. I find it helps train my hair for the twist out pattern I like, and it also helps finger detangle easier. After, I rinsed out my regular conditioner and detangled I put in my deep conditioner and put a baggy over my head for 30mins. Afterwards, I rinsed it out in lukewarm water.

Now usually my hair looks thirsty... even while  soaking wet, but this time my curlies were really defined and even as it was drying my hair looked really hydrated. On top of that my hair was super soft. I loved it, and even more my hair loved it. Sorry for the long intro but here is a step by step instruction on how I acheived hydrated hair:

First you will need:

Honey -Not much really. Most say to use natural honey; you can get it at an herb store. But my time was limited and so were my pockets so I used what I had.

Regular Conditioner - This is suppose to take the place of a deep conditioner if you find yourself without. I would also recommend you have atleast half a bottle left.

An empty 8oz. container

And something to stir the mix

For every part honey you use use 2 parts of regular condtioner. Stir together til it's one solid color. Follow your regular hair wash regimen and use the mix as a deep conditioner. Leave in for 30mins covered and then rinse out with lukewarm water.

Enjoy,
Ashley

By the way... this is the  conditioner I used.
