Love your hair!

I am tough on my hair... between workouts, hula, and over-drying it with my flat iron or hair dryer, my hair has taken a lot of abuse.

A three day weekend afforded me some quality time to take care of my tresses and they are looking fabulous again.

Easy hair mask ingredients are hiding in your pantry. Easily mix up a simple concoction of proteins. Our hair loves proteins just like our muscles. It makes your hair shiny and bouncy again.

Eggs are perfect! If I cook up an egg white omelette, I usually will cook up the yolks for my dog-it makes her coat shiny :) Today, I saved them for an overdue hair treatment.

Three yolks and about 1/4 cup olive oil blended with 3 tablespoons of Hawaiian salt. I like the salt for the exfoliating scrub on my scalp, but it also makes your hair soft, just like swimming in the ocean all day. (Amounts are not exact, just mix up what you need, I have very long hair and needed at least a cup of hair mask to coat every strand.)

Leave on your hair for thirty minutes and then rinse. Wash your hair again with your favorite shampoo and conditioner (you don't want your hair smelling like eggs and oil) and towel dry. While its still damp, I add a little of my favorite tri-protein conditioner and leave it in.

Brush and style your gorgeous locks and repeat at least once a month for awesome hair days ;)

Blessings for an amazing weekend!

Love and Aloha,
Maile
