Eggs for stronger thicker shinier hair!

[Auburn]

Wow, thanks for posting this! I remember when I was little my auntie would sometimes use eggs or mayo in my hair and I remember afterwards how strong my hair would feel. If it wasnt so hard for me to get eggs out here in Iraq I would join this challenge. Maybe after my friend that works in the DFAC returns from R&R I can get a hook up on some eggs. Also you hair already looks great and thanks for posting this.

Thank you & youre welcome

Hey there sweetie,

I actually used 1 egg mixed with my deep conditioner last night and it was wonderful. My hair is strong yet soft and there is no breakage. This will be a weekly staple for me from here on.

morehairplease, I have actually done this protein egg treatment in the past and noticed that it made my hair strong, yet dry and hard. I did not follow up with a moisturizing treatment. Be careful on how often you do it, I think it is recommended by most hair gurus to do it once every 4-6 weeks. Glad it worked out for you!

I actually mixed an egg with my Moisturizing deep conditioner last week, along with a bit of honey, jojoboa oil and 100% aloe vera juice. I sat with this mixture on for about 30 mins, rinsed and then conditioned with AM Deeeep....I was very impressed! I loved the results, soft, shiny, strong hair. It wasn't dry or brittle. I'll do this again next month.

I followed Macherie's egg treatment tutorial and it was too much protein for my hair. My hair was a hard sticky mess. I had to DC and cowash several times in order to back track what it did. I ended up re-washing and DCing with a moisturizing conditioner.

Raw eggs is A LOT of protein and should be used in severe case. That's my opinion.

My styist recommended I try egg treatments 2 weeks ago.

I did my first--1 egg w/ some VO5 condish----I couldn't believe how little my hair shed and it was really strong--but I can't say if it was due to the egg

b/c I still did a protein treatment w/ Aph 2 min, Porosity Control and a moisturizing DC hey it was my hair treatment day lol!

I love you girls. You are all so adventurous and creative, but might I suggest looking for a product that contains egg proteins?

Phyto makes a prepoo oil that has a 12% concentration of egg yolk oil. They also have a shampoo with egg yolk oil in it too. It's the Phytonectar shampoo.

It's expensive though, like all phyto products. I does work though, I've tried it.

I always add 1 egg to my ORS hair mayo. Works wonderfully. I only do this in the spring/ summer months only.

I've added egg to my ORS hair mayo in the past. I've also added this treatment to my daughter's hair and it eliminated her breakage instantly...

I just started using honey and beer in my hair and now I think I will be trying the egg next. My hair is braided up right now so I have a bit of time before I will be able to do an egg treatment. Natural hair care is awesome.

Bumping...
I used an egg for the first time (3 days after my touchup) and it stop my breakage immediately. My midstep protein wasn't strong enough during the process. I'm a hard core apHogee 2 min fan but this is highly recommended!
