Here are some things that will do wonders to your hair and you can probably find them in your refrigerator.

Mayonnaise can be used as a deep conditioning treatment for the hair helping to repair damage and split ends. You can mix mayo, olive oil, eggs and shea butter for a deep conditioning treatment for hair repair.

Olive Oil adds shine to the hair and can be used as a healthy alternative to the infamous petroleum jelly.

Coconut Oil softens your hair and adds moisture to your hair along with, not to mention, a nice smell to your locks.

Avocado helps to moisturize your hair as well as add protein and Vitamin E. The protein strengthens your hair and the natural oils of the avocado add shine and luster to your hair.

Cayenne Pepper can be used along with aloe vera gel, olive oil or water to stimulate hair growth especially around the temple. We recommend that you use a tooth brush to scrub and massage this in, in order to open up your pores thus stimulating hair growth. Make sure to rinse with lukewarm water and light shampoo afterwards.

Yogurt can be used to add protein to your hair and helps to repair hair damage.

Eggs are a great source of protein for your hair. Eggs also add a shine to your hair.

Water may seem like the odd one out on the list but this is the most important hair food to have. Not only is water good in your body but it is also amazing on your hair. Your body drinks water but so does your hair. It has been proven that drinking plenty water helps to stimulate hair growth. You can also mix water with other natural oils like olive and coconut oil and spray it on your hair to keep your hair soft, glowing and moisturized throughout the day.
