How to Deep Condition Hair and its Recipes

What you will need:
Time — About an hour. I usually deep condition in the late evening when I don’t have to be anywhere anytime soon.

Plastic Cap — 25 cent cheapo plastic shower cap
Heating Unit — Hot Water Bottle, Heating Pad, Blow Dryer Cap, (you can try hot/warm towel too) or a Micro Heat Wrap


How to Deep Condition your hair:

1. If you wish, you can wash your hair first. I simply rinse it out well and gently squeeze out the excess water.


2. Generously apply your deep conditioner to damp hair, and focus on the ends. Work through with your fingers, or use a wide toothed comb to work through your hair. This is the only time I ever use a comb or brush on my wet conditioned hair. Otherwise, only use your fingers.


3. Place the shower cap over hair, and then put the heating device on your head for a full 20 minutes. You need to 20 minutes to allow the hair cuticle to open fully, and let the conditioner completely permeate and feed your hair. After 20+ minutes or longer, (you could leave the conditioner on at this point, even all night after heating), take off your cap and let your hair cool for at least 5 minutes. This allows your hair shaft to close again.


4. Rinse hair with warm water until about 80% of the conditioner is rinsed out.


5. Do a final rinse with the coldest water you can stand. This is important to seal your hair shaft and get all the benefits of your deep conditioning treatment.


6. Apply a leave-on conditioner and allow your hair to air dry. (optional for curly hair but not needed for straight hair)



7. Do not wash your hair the next day. Give your hair a break after a deep conditioning for at least 24 hours.

1/2 of an avocado
Directions:
Put together in a medium bowl and squish together with your hands until it's a minty green color. Smooth into hair all the way to the tips. Put on a shower cap or wrap your head with saran wrap.
Leave on for 20 minutes. For deeper conditioning put a hot, damp towel around your head -over the saran wrap. And if you have really long hair and only need deep conditioning at the ends, cut the ingredients in half and apply only to the ends and just wrap them.

You may need to wrap a towel around the bottle to avoid burning yourself. Shake very well until oil is emulsified. Massage into hair, taking care not to burn your head. Put a shower cap or plastic bag over your hair and wrap your head in a hot towel that has been soaked in hot water then wrung out. Leave mixture on your hair for 1/2 hour, then shampoo as usual
Healthy conditioner

Mix 6 tablespoons of rice bran (or wheat bran) with enough hot water to make a thin paste.
Using a blender, add half an avocado, a drop of sesame oil. Blend.
Apply mixture to freshly shampooed hair. Then, take a damp towel and warm it up in the microwave for 30 seconds. Apply warmed towel to hair and let it set.
Lightly shampoo hair and rinse with water.
Steep a camomile tea bag in 7 oz. of warm water with a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. Apply tea mixture to hair and let sit for 3 minutes. Camomile renders a golden tone to hair, while the vinegar makes hair shine and closes down the cuticles.
Rinse hair again with water.
