i am black and i have relaxed(permed) hair and i want to know if a honey and olive oil hair mask will actually work. What its supposed to do is moisterize and add shine to your hair. Can anyone help me?Has anyone ever tried a honey %26amp; olive oil hair mask?
Yes!! I am female and white but I have very dry, course and frizzy hair. I have tried so many products to moisturize my hair, tame the frizziness, etc., but none of them have worked on my hair. A friend of mine got this make-at-home recipe from her hair dresser and it is great! I don't know if you are talking about a homemade conditioner and/or mask, or a product on the market, but my make-at-home recipe contains the same two ingredients you mentioned in your post.
It's called, ';Rosemary Honey Olive Oil Hair Conditioner';. The honey in this conditioner will add shine while the olive oil is great for extra moisture. The treatment is enhanced with rosemary essential oil to stimulate hair growth - you can leave this ingredient out, but I prefer to leave it in because it stimulates healthy hair growth. Here's the recipe:
鈥?1/2 cup honey
鈥?1/4 cup warmed olive oil (2 tablespoons for normal to oily hair)
鈥?4 drops rosemary essential oil
鈥?1 tsp of xanthan gum (available at health food stores)
Place all the ingredients in a small bowl and mix thoroughly. Pour into a clean plastic bottle with a snug-fitting cap. To use, apply a small amount to your slightly dampened hair. Massage your scalp and work the conditioner through your hair until it is completely and evenly distributed. Next, cover your hair with a warm towel (your microwave or dryer can heat it up) or shower cap. Leave the conditioner on for 30 minutes. Shampoo lightly and rinse with cool water. Dry as you would normally.
I can't say enough good things about this stuff - I just love it. It's the only thing that has ever worked on my hair and it makes it so shiny, soft and manageable - and no more frizzy hair!!!
I see no reason why you shouldn't give it a try - one thing for sure, it won't harm your hair. And I think you will be very happy if you do try it. I usually condition my hair once a week with this recipe and I can't remember how long I've been using it. The first time you use it, you will notice a difference, and the second time will be even better. After you have used it on a regular basis, you will not believe the difference in your hair.
So what have you got to lose if you give it a try? Go for it and I hope it works as well for you as it does for me! Good Luck!Has anyone ever tried a honey %26amp; olive oil hair mask?
Well I am white, so our hair is a little different... But, my hair is extremely damaged from all kinds of die (mostly bleach) and lots of extensions... I put Extra Virgin Olive Oil on my hair once a week... I actually do it before bed or sometimes earlier if I know I am going to stay at home, then I actually leave it in overnight. I put a towel down on my pillow to cover it and it makes a huge difference... Good luck! :)
Im also black with relaxed hair and believe me IT WORKS! Im not sure about the honey but olive oil alone will do just fine.It moisturizes your hair and gives it some shine.It works until you wash it out.But let me warn you,dont go crazy with it.If you put on too much olive oil you'll be dealing with an oily mess.But overall I give the olive oil treatment alot of thumbs up.
