D.I.Y. Tip of the Week - Protein Mask for your Hair

I love to repost fun things that I read about online... and I thought this was a great tip to share with all of you.  Use this recipe to battle those bad hair days... with ingredients you can find in your kitchen.

Hair is made up of proteins, which can break up from exposure to the sun, harsh chemicals and crazy conditions... so what better way to strengthen your strands than to put some of that protein back in to it.

What you'll need:
2 eggs
1/2 cup yogurt
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup olive oil

What you need to do:
1.  Beat the egss until they become frothy and add in the olive oil.
2.  Whisk until it's fully blended together and add in the yogurt, mixing until it's a creamy consistency.  Then add the honey.
3.  Comb out any knots and tangles in your hair, and spread the mixture from your roots to your ends, combing it through.
4.  Wrap your hair in a warm towel and leave for twenty to thirty minutes before you rinse it out and shampoo.

In my opinion - this beats using Mayonaise and having the smell linger in your hair.  :)
