Banana Deep Conditioning Treatment


After coloring my hair I am back to doing weekly treatments because I know that my strands are going to need some extra TLC. This week I decided to give the Banana Deep Treatment a try.

How I made my concoction:
2 large ripe bananas
Sunflower Oil
Mayonnaise
V05 Moisturizing Conditioner

I blended the first 3 ingredients until smooth. I then poured the mixture into a container and mixed in the conditioner.


I then applied the mixture to freshly co-washed hair, making sure to coat each strand evenly. Afterwards I cover my hair with a plastic cap and let it sit for 20-30 minutes. I rinsed my hair out with warm water then applied my regular conditioner and left it in for about 2 minutes before rinsing it out with cool water.

I absolutely loved how my hair felt afterwards. I diffinatly will be doing this deep conditioner again, but I will probably add some peppermint/lavender oil to it simply because I hated the smell.

Hair Color

For the past month I've been really bored and unhappy with my hair. My hair has always been a quick and easy way for me to express myself and change up the way I look, so after numerous research I decided that I wanted to color my hair. I've never liked having dark hair when I use to relax, so having my hair in its natural state is not an exception at all. After figuring out which color I wanted to achieve and how to go about achieving that it I went and bought the hair color. 

The color that I bought was Clairol Nice'nEasy 106B-Natural Dark Champagne Blonde. Yes, Blonde. Because I wanted a Light Brown and my hair was originally a Dark Brown after researching I found out that using a blonde hair color will give me that.

On Friday I got really bored and decided to just go ahead and color my hair. Right now I am very happy with the results. I can't stop admiring my hair, I really love the way the color turned out. It looks way better in my hair than it did on the strand test. The only thing that I'm not too pleased about is the fact that I ran out of color, so some of my roots are not colored. I'm not too worried about that because I can always retouch those areas whenever I please.       

I also decided to add a few highlights at the front using a BrightGold hair dye. Both colors looks lovely and complements each other.
