Treatments
Egg Treatment
Pre-shampoo
Whisk up 2 eggs.
Massage thoroughly through your hair. Be sure to rinse out with cold water, otherwise you will end up with scrambled egg all through your hair!
Hair Mayonnaise
Pre-shampoo
This is suitable for all hair types except for very oily hair. It pretty much smacks you in the head with a wollop of moisture and protein, so concentrate mainly on the ends and be careful around the roots.
1 organic egg yolk
3 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon jojoba oil
20ml light organic olive oil
4 drops lavender essential oil
Whisk up the egg and vinegar. Mix together the oils and then add to the egg in a thin stream. Use immediately.
Massage into the hair. For deep conditioning cover your head with a plastic shower cap (or glad wrap), then wrap in a hot towel and leave for 20 minutes. Wash as normal.

Leave-in Spray
Grab a handfull of fresh Rosemary. Pop it in a saucepan and cover with water, bring to the boil and simmer for about 10-15 minutes. Strain. When cooled, place the liquid in a spray bottle. Spray into your hair after washing, or use whenever your locks need a quick fresh up.
