Monday is MLK Day, so Sunday I'll do and overnight coconut oil deep conditioning treatment (hairlista.com has a challenge). I will then do an avocado protein treatment, courtesy of Candy_C:
YOU NEED:
A soft (preferabley going off) HASS Avacado..(hass apparently contains more protein and alot of moisture)
Half a cup of EVOO
HALF a cup of DISTILLED, BOTTLED or plain old boiled and left to chill WATER
A whole EGG
Instructions:
Cut up the Avacado and scoop out the flesh - throw away the seed
This should be real mushy as its about to - or HAS gone off; if you see dark bits in the flesh, use these too..ITS ALL GOOD!
Put this into a bowl and mash up with the cup of EVOO
Once runny, add the EGG
Mix together
Now add your water, and stir and mash like theres no tomorrow!
Instructions (2):
Wash your hair thoroughly with either a Clarifying poo or just your regular poo (depends on how many poducts you've been using recently)
Add this mask (yes i know its cold but that is also why it works so well! - you can also warm it up, but only for 30 seconds or so LUKEWARM!
Now find a nice magazine, cover your head with a cap and towel and relax for approx 30 mins
After 30 mins, remove the cap, and your hair will be a lilly stuck, but its allllright, get under the shower and let the water rinse it for around 5 mins.
Now using your hands gently massage the excess mask out. You can use a conditioner afterwards if you want to, but i find missing out that step and simply using a GOOD LEAVE-IN does the trick!
whether you blowdry or airdry u will notice a big big difference in the strength and elasticity of your hair. it will straighten out easily if you use heat, or curl real nicely if you airdry. It will also shine and ur ends wont be frizzy or as frizzy. i strongly recommend this if you use heat regularly

I typically air dry to 80%, then do a braid out, prepping my scalp with JBCO, moisturizing with Silken Child, sealing with coconut oil.
