A month ago, I was listening to the Daily 10 while I was working. Some celebrity hair stylist (I think that it was Ken Paves) was on the show giving some recipes for summer hair conditioners. I don’t remember the celebrities that he mentioned using them on. I do remember that they were all Caucasian, but I’ve tried them on my relaxed African-American hair and they work equally great.
1. Simple olive oil. Spray on and comb through your hair. (I keep it on while I’m doing household chores.) It leaves your hair nice and shiny after you wash it out.
And
2. ½ of an avocado and 1 cup of plain yogurt mixed together well. You put the mixture on your hair like you would with a normal conditioner. I must say that this left my hair feeling strong, thick and healthy. (I must also admit that while it was on, my son Michael kept saying, “Mommy, you have sticky, smelly hair!”)
