Olive Oil Hair Mask with Honey

Honey and olive oil mask for dry and damaged hair

Adding honey can help in cases of deeply damaged hair. For these cases the basic olive oil mask is enhanced with honey, which is another natural hydrating product.

Honey will soften hair and also repair it from the inside. Additionally it will give it an extra shine.

All whats needed here are 3 tablespoons of organic honey and 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. For other proportions, keep in mind that it always should be a mix of three parts of olive oil and one of honey. 

1. Mix the honey with the olive oil in a bowl until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. Stir the resulting dough until it acquires a compact texture.
2. Let the mask rest for about 24 hours, to enhance the effects of the honey and oil.
3. When applying it, it will first be necessary to shampoo the hair. Afterwards, when it is still wet, apply the mask made from the root to the tips for about 15 minutes, so that it can act on all the hair and scalp. Apply the mask from middle to end.
4. Cover the hair with a towel and let it act for 20 to 30 minutes.
5. After that time, remove with plenty of warm water and make a normal wash. It is important to wash the hair again to prevent it from becoming greasy after applying the mask.
