In order to take full advantage of all the benefits of coconut oil on the hair, there is nothing better than the hair mask. Here are two!
The simplest coconut oil mask recipe is the oil bath. To make an oil bath, you need to soak your hands in a little coconut oil. You then massage your scalp gently for a few minutes so that the oil penetrates your epidermis well.
Then you stretch the coconut oil over your hair, from the lengths to the root. Insist well on the tips, especially if they are very dry and split. Then wrap your hair in a warm towel. The heat will open the scales of your hair and the moisturizing properties of the coconut oil will be increased tenfold.
Leave the coconut oil mask on your hair for a few hours. The ideal is to leave your coconut oil bath on your hair overnight. Then wash your hair once or twice.
If your hair is very dry or is by nature very curly or frizzy, you need to give it a high dose of hydration. To do this, make a homemade hair mask based on coconut oil and avocado. All you have to do is peel an avocado, remove its flesh and then mash it in a bowl. You should get a puree-like consistency. You should not leave any lumps. When you obtain a smooth and homogeneous paste, add coconut oil; the equivalent of a large tablespoon. If your coconut oil is congealed, put it in the microwave or in a double boiler to liquefy it. Mix the avocado with the coconut oil. Wet your hair then apply your homemade mask. Leave on your hair for about 30 minutes then rinse.
