Dirty Hair!

Dear freaking hair,

                       Since I have really looong hair, it's really hard to wash it every day. It's like a chore itself, I mean come on! Can't I just wash it twice a week...? No because my hair gets really greasy and dirty as if I haven't washed it for a year or so. If you literally take a bucket and see how much oil my hair produces; I bet you it's like half a litre! 

It really sucks because it takes me about 2 hours to take shower due to my nasty hair. My mum always asks me about why I take such a long time! I'm just fed up now; I wish I could just shave my hair off so it wouldn't take me zillion hours to wash it. Unfortunately, I can't because then I will look even more like a teenage boy. I can't even imagine that when I was born everyone thought I was a boy! I mean okay, I know that when children are born they look like a... well like a potato, but still they used to dress me up like a boy too. Thanks mum. 



Even though my hair is oily and greasy and nasty! The end of my hair is really I mean REALLY dry. I can't stress it enough; it looks all matted and so dehydrated. My mum told me that when I was a child, I had wonderful hair, it was black (though now it's brown) it was shiny, it was healthy because she used to put some sort of oil in my hair.

To tame my hair down a little bit because sometimes it gets really frizzy as well, I apply coconut oil and mix it up with some ingredients. I know that my hair is oily and some might think that by applying more oil to it will make it worse, but bare with me, did you know that your scalp is oily because it is so dry from the inside?
Since you scalp is so dry, it produces more oil to help and keep itself moist. 

The hair mask (or you might call it whatever you want) that I use:

Ingredients
Coconut oil
Eggs

You will also need 2 mixing bowls and a fork.

Firstly, you need to crack open an egg (if you have really long hair then please do use 2) then bit it like a bad ass!

 Then taking another bowl pour 1 and a half tablespoon of coconut oil (also depends if your hair is short then just pour 1 tablespoon, if long then 2 tablespoon) if your coconut oil is solid, put it in the microwave for 10 second, make sure you keep an eye on it because you don't want it to be hot!

Take it out of the microwave and let it cool it down a little bit. Don't pour it straight away in your eggs because you don't want the eggs to cook.

Pour the coconut oil into the eggs and mix it all up!

Voilà! Now you have your mask. Put it on your scalp, massaging it slowly. Distribute it at the very ends of your hair as well because that's the driest part of your hair.

Put shower cap on to seal in the moisture. (Wait for 30-40 minutes)

Rinse it off by making sure your water temperature is not hot as it will cook the egg and reverse the mask by making your hair more dehydrated!

When you finish taking shower, rinse your hair with a blast of cold water. When I do it, I put all of my hair in front of me and bend down, I take the shower and put it behind my head making sure only my hair is in contact with the water as it is really cold!

Last but not least, best of luck! I know how it feels having unhealthy hair, it really sucks! Now I'm off to take shower myself, wish me luck! x

☼ Take care
