Wanna learn some great recipes for a homemade hair conditioner for dry hair? Yes please! This time it’s about maintaining silky, shiny locks. Many hair conditioner recipes call for vinegar. For me, that’s a no no. I can’t pretend that I could tolerate sitting at my desk smelling like eau du massengill.

Besides the obvious reason that I find the idea of vinegar in my conditioner unappealing, it is acidic. My dry hair will not appreciate the harsh effect of the vinegar.

(I’ m not going to pretend to know why, ANY conditioner would call for vinegar. I guess that it is utilized in some recipes for added shine??? )


I don’t have an inkling.

I’ll keep things simple, by sharing recipes that require using just 3 ingredients, and a minimal amount of effort to prepare.

Natural hair and a good hair conditioner, go hand in hand if keeping your locks in a manageable state is important to you. If you have curly frizzy hair, like my family does, these recipes for hair conditioner are exactly what you need!

A fork for mashing and mixing

Small plastic container for storing remaining mixture

Ingredients:

1 medium ripe avocado (room temperature)

1 tablespoon of honey

1-3 teaspoon coconut milk

Essential oil of your choice for fragrance (optional)

Directions:

First, mash avocado in mixing bowl. Next add honey to avocado and blend well. Slowly add coconut milk until the conditioner reaches the consistency that you prefer.

If you choose to add essential oil, to create a customized scent, mix 2 to 3 drops into the natural conditioner last.

The avocado conditioner is ready for use immediately!

After shampooing, apply the avocado blend to hair and let stand for at least 10 minutes. If you have the time, 30 minutes would be even better!

Relax while you wait then rinse with warm, not hot, water. When all of the avocado mix has been thoroughly rinsed out, quickly rinse hair with a blast of cold water to seal the hair cuticle and keep things shinier, longer.
