DIY Protein Treatment
If your hair feels weak, dry, brittle, or prone to breakage, try this simple homemade protein treatment.
Ingredients to use.
🥑 1 ripe avocado
🥚 1 whole egg
🍯 1 tablespoon honey
🫒 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
🥣 HOW TO PREPARE
1️⃣ Mash or blend the avocado until completely smooth.
2️⃣ Add the egg, honey, and olive oil.
3️⃣ Blend or whisk everything together until you get a smooth, creamy mixture.
💆🏾♀️ HOW TO USE
Apply to clean, damp hair in sections.
Work the mixture from the roots down to the ends.
Gently massage it into your hair.
Cover with a plastic cap and leave for 15–20 minutes.
Rinse thoroughly with cool or lukewarm water. Avoid hot water because of the egg.
Continue with your favourite moisturizing Leave-in conditioner.
Why I love this protein treatment:
🫒Helps strengthen weak strands
🫒Helps reduce breakage
🫒Adds softness and moisture
🫒Helps improve hair elasticity
🫒Leaves the hair feeling nourished and conditioned
How often should I use it?
Use once every 2–4 weeks, depending on how your hair responds. Too much protein can leave some hair feeling stiff or dry, so listen to your hair.
⚠️ Important thing to note
This is a fresh, food-based treatment. Make only what you need, use it immediately, and don't store leftovers.
