Honey & Banana Deep Conditioner Recipe

I've meaning to try out a banana deep conditioner for a while now since many benefits have been attributed to the fruit:

"... Banana is rich in potassium, natural oils, carbohydrates and vitamins that helps in softening the hair and protects the hair's natural elasticity preventing split ends and breakage. Bananas when used for hair has a number of benefits such as it creates manageability, shine, growth and controls dandruff. These are simply the best for hair and the scalp. Bananas enhance the strength, endurance and shine of the hair and can be referred to as the banana food."*


The thought of risking to be left with banana residue in my hair really freaked me out so, I played it safe and bought a can of banana puree from the supermarket in the baby foods aisle .  To create the recipe, I simply added the banana puree (half of the can) and a big tea spoon of honey to my shea butter and EVOO deep conditioner mix. 


I applied the mixture to my wet hair (thank you spray bottle) and cover my head with a plastic cap for an hour. 

 

Result: my hair has never felt so soft and shiny. I wonder how I managed so long without this recipe!
