Errrrr... ok, so I had intended to blog about the hair mask I used last night. But it was such a disaster that I had to do more of a Dangers of hair masks post. (Excuse the drama.) So I was googling hair mask ideas online- with reluctance because I've had a bad experience before. I came across one that said to mix banana, honey and olive oil, so I made the mask and got in the shower. I applied it to wet hair, all was fine, until... I had to get it out. OMG the lumps of banana would not wash out!!! Oh god it was awful- like really bad lumpy dandruff. When I got out of the shower, I combed through my hair and got most of the lumps out... but I'm still finding the occasional banana flake!
The previous hair mask disaster happened a couple of months ago.. I'd heard lots of people saying that olive oil was great for moisturising hair. You know where this is going right? So after I washed my hair, I put in a tiny teeny bit of oil, but didn't feel it was enough, so I kept adding more. I washed it out and my hair felt really glossy. I went to bed with kinda damp hair. (I let it air dry.) I woke up the next morning with the greasiest hair ever!!!!! I had to leave for school within the hour so I jumped in the shower, and lashed on really hot water to get all the oil out. I got it out, but had to put my hair in a bun then- there was no time to dry it. So it was in a reallly tight bun.. which does not suit me at all!
So, I don't know if any of the hair masks actually worked- the cons far outway the pros!
What have I learned? Well I don't know about other people but I'm not putting anything lumpy in my hair again.. and I'm definitely gonna go easier on the olive oil! Actually I'm just gonna stick to the hair masks you buy in a store from now on.
Have you had any hair related disasters?
Talk soon,
