Ingredients:
* 1 egg (or two for long hair)
* 1/2 cup of milk (or whole for long hair)
* juice from one lemon
* 2 to 4 tablespoons of olive oil
First, separate the egg white from the yolk depending on your hair type. For oily hair, use only the egg white, while for dry hair, use only the yolk. For normal hair, use the whole egg.
Beat the eggs, then add the milk, olive oil, and mix well. Add the lemon juice, which will give the scalp a refreshing appearance. Mix well; you can also use a mixer for better homogenization.
Apply the mixture from the scalp to the tips of the hair and let it sit for at least 15-20 minutes. Make sure to stay over the sink, as this mask may drip. Cover your hair with a plastic cap (the one for the shower) or a towel. Use warm or cold water to rinse well, ensuring you cover all areas of the scalp.
Ingredients:
* one banana
* two tablespoons of olive oil
* one tablespoon of honey
Mash the banana until it becomes very fine. Add the honey, olive oil, and mix well. Apply the mask from the roots to the tips and let it act for an hour. Rinse with warm water.
