Last Friday I shared a homemade banana mask recipe that I tried,
and today I’m sharing how I applied it. I really wanted to take some before and
after pictures so that I could see if there was a notable difference, but that
quite work out as I had hoped.
 
|  | 
| first I washed my hair with just warm water | 
|  | 
| by this time, the mixture looked more like jelly fat | 
|  | 
| it literally looks like someone threw up on my head ewwww | 
|  | 
| I covered the gunk with two plastic bags (I've found that plastic bags work better than shower/steam caps) | 
|  | 
| then I wrapped my whole head in a towel to prevent drippage | 
Seven hours later...
|  | 
| didn't really look any better the next morning... barf! | 
I tried to rinse my hair out with warm water but found LOADS of trapped banana bits that refused to budge, so I ended up washing my hair with Tresemme 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner (which probably made the whole mask thing counterproductive... oh well).
|  | 
| after combing my hair through, a few pesky bits of banana remained... grrr | 
Make sure you check back next week to read about my thoughts on the mask and what I learned from the experience of my first hair mask.
