Honey Hair Conditioner

Want to give your hair a treat? Our honey conditioner treatment is a quick and inexpensive way to pamper yourself. Be sure to warm the honey before using it. The antibacterial properties of honey release low levels of hydrogen peroxide, which will lighten the hair, but heating the honey negates  the effects of the peroxide. Plus warm honey will feel great on your scalp!

Combine:
1/2 cup honey, warmed in the microwave
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Massage well into hair from scalp to ends, then cover with a plastic processing cap. Process for 30 minutes at room temperature, then cleanse hair with a non-sulfate cleanser. For added penetration, sit under a warm (not hot) dryer for 20 minutes.
