Honey and Olive Oil* Moisture Madness Conditioner
Main Moisturizing Ingredient: While honey may not be great to use on hair by itself, it has some super moisturizing power when mixed with other natural ingredients. Honey is a natural humectant, which means that it attracts and locks in moisture. In addition to its moisturizing properties, honey acts as a natural anti-bacterial and can help heal the scalp if it’s sensitive. Honey also controls dandruff and makes the hair shiny.
Recipe:
- 2 Eggs
- 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil*
- 2 Tablespoons of Honey
Directions: Warm the honey and olive oil* in a bowl. Next, whisk the eggs into the honey and olive oil* thoroughly. Apply to your hair from root to tip and let it sit for 30 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with cool water. Eggs will cook in hot water!

I’ve become almost exclusively DIY when it comes to DCs so I’m always looking for new formulas to try. Thanks for these, they’ll be going into my hair recipe book.
