Overnight conditioning

[Micki2000]

I have highlights in my hair. I usually use Pantene overnight intensive treatment, but am out. Is there anything else that is a "home remedy?"

Thanks

Micki

any deep conditioner you have put on put a plastic bag on your head and sleep with it on

This might sound crazy, but mayonaisse has made my hair super soft, I don't know about wearing it overnight but I usually rinse it out in the shower and it stays really soft.

I've heard of using mayonnaise before. Never tried it, but I guess it works pretty well.

I have never tried the mayo either, but wouldn't that make your hair stink if you left it in overnight?

I don't think its a good idea to leave it in overnight, but maybe just for an hour or so and then rinse it out.

I use just regular conditioner and a plastic cap. Sauve Professional Humectant Conditioner is good. I put on a bonnet to absorb the sound.

There is actually a product called hair mayonnaise...i can't remember who makes it though. It works really good...and for extra conditioning, u crack an egg and put it into the conditioner and apply to your hair. I kno it sounds gross but it works well. Its not an overnight thing though.

BTW.......how does Pantene overnight intensive treatment work Micki ??

 

[Micki2000]

I love the Pantene overnight treatment. Hair is really soft the next day! They come in individual envelopes/packs.

I've heard about Mayonaisse before and I've seen Julia Robert using it on "Pretty Woman" movie lol. But, I've never tried it though.

I use Camelia Oil a lot for hair conditioning.

I load my hair up w/jojoba oil and the next day wash. It feels sooooo soft

I have been using a combo of 2 parts hair conditioner, 1 part honey, and 1 part pure aloe vera juice/gel. I don't leave on overnight though b/c i'm afraid it'll make a mess but I do leave it on for atleast an hour during the day and it makes my hair very soft. The honey is a humectant that draws moisture from the air to the hair. Try it!

I'm surprised no one mentioned this .. coconut oil ! and it doesnt stink

I've used mayo + egg and it can be messy. I just put a shower cap on and let it sit, but definitely don't leave it on all night!

I've heard of using Mayo before, but I don't recall how it's supposed to be used.

I've mixed 2 tblspoon conditioner and 1 tspspoon sunflower oil together. (I'm sure any oil would do). Leave on 15 minutes, rince well. This left my hair feeling soft.

 

[Micki2000]

Thanks for all the replies! Sounds like honey would be sticky but smell good. Where do you get all of these oils?

 

[Dragonfly]

Since I am queen of the cheapies, I always lok through dollar stores for deals.

In the grocery section, there are different edible oils in 3-4 oz bottles.

Katrosier is right - coconut oil is fantastic for hair.

if using egg or mayo on your head dont use too warm water to rinse out or it'll cook....just a little tip i learnt from experience!
