Avocado Almond Peppermint Hair Mask
Items you will need:
● 1 medium-sized ripe organic avocado
● 2 tablespoons sweet almond oil
● 8 drops peppermint essential oil
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Wash and peel your medium-sized avocado.
2. With a sharp kitchen knife, make an incision into the avocado till
the center. Then, run your knife around the avocado to let the
incision divide the fruit into two parts.
3. With your hands, twist the avocado and pull apart to get two
halves.
4. Remove the central pit and scoop the flesh out with a spoon.
5. Add the flesh to a mixing bowl. With a spoon or your fingers, mash
the flesh into a pulp. It’s okay if you don’t have a pulp with a
smooth texture - mush your avocado as much as you can.
6. Warm up your sweet almond oil and add to this mix. Continue to
blend till you have a thoroughly mixed mask.
7. If the mask is too thick, you can add a tablespoon or two of water
to dilute your mask.
9. Add in the peppermint essential oil and give your mixture one final
stir to complete the mask.
10. Use a brush, spoon or even your fingers to apply this resulting
mask to your hair.
11. Apply evenly and ensure that you cover all sections of your scalp
thoroughly.
12. Cover your hair with a shower cap or plastic bag and allow the
mask to work its wonders for about fifteen to thirty minutes.
13. Then, rinse off with lots of water and an optional sulfate-free
shampoo.
14. Apply this treatment to your hair about two times a week for four
weeks to see visible reduction in hair fall.
