Mayonnaise Hair Treatment
Over-treated, dry, damaged and brittle hair can benefit from a good deep conditioning treatment. Mayonnaise contains many of the properties found in store-bought conditioners. It contains oils that deeply moisturize hair, making it ideal for dry, damaged hair. Store bought deep conditioners coat the hair shaft for temporary smoothness and do nothing for its condition in the long run. Mayonnaise hair treatment looks after everything from dryness to thinning hair.

Mayonnaise Benefits
1. It contains oils that deeply moisturize hair.
2. It coats hair much like silicone to add shine and protect it from heat styling.
3. It creates a coating on hair strands so it also protects hair from the sun.
4. The protein content replenishes weak strands to prevent breakage.
5. The Vinegar, found in Mayonnaise helps restore the healthy ph balance.
Mayonnaise Hair Treatment:
- Purchase some mayonnaise at your local grocery store. It doesn’t matter which brand you choose, just as long as it is regular mayonnaise.
- Dampen your hair. Take a cup of mayonnaise and apply it through your hair like you would a conditioner.
- Wrap your head with a plastic wrap or shower cap to trap the heat inside. Heat opens the pores and allows the treatment to penetrate strands further.
- Let the treatment sit on the hair for 20 minutes and then shampoo it.
Tips:
- Always opt for full-fat mayonnaise. No need to get the low-fat stuff—it’s going in your hair, not in your body.
- Mix a few drops of Rosemary Essential Oil or a table spoon of vanilla extract to cut the mayonnaise scent.
