Olive Oil and Mayo for Dry Hair
Did you read that right? Yup sometimes you can just look in your kitchen to find what you need to help you tackle that dry hair. Olive Oil and mayo is an excellent moisturizing treatment for your hair and scalp. Here are some tricks from stylists Josh Rosebrook and Robear Landeros at LA Based salon The Parlour on 3rd.
How to make an Olive Oil moisturizing treatment.
Take 1/4 cup olive oil and pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds.
Part your hair into four sections and apply the warm olive oil to your scalp section by section. Make sure to work the olive oil from the scalp to the ends of your hair.
Put a plastic cap on your hair and let the olive oil work its magic for 30 minutes.
Remove the cap. Shampoo condition and style your hair as usual.
How to make a Healthy Hair Mask
For best results, stick with an organic brand of mayo. Place a plastic bag over your hair after you apply. Leavie it on for 30 minutes. If you don’t mind smelling like a ham sandwich, the results are worth it!

My mom used to put mayo in my hair when I was little – a lot. Then we’d wash it out and put my hair up in a “doobi” (not sure how to spell it, but I’m sure you know what I’m talking about).

Lol I haven’t heard the word “doobi” in forever! When I lived in NYC that’s how we said it. Up here they call it a “wrap”. I prefer doobi.
I’m sure your hair was shiny and silky after all that!

I used to do this ALL the time when I was a teen. I don’t do it now but can attest to how great it made my cabello feel!

Great share, thank you! Believe me, oatmeal is also good for the hair. Mix up some oatmeal, then apply it to your hair while in the shower. Rub it in and let it sit for about 1-2 minutes before washing it out completely. Your hair will be soft and strong.
