Stop that Itchy Scalp


Material

  • 1 avocado, pitted and mashed
  • 4 tblspn sour cream
  • 3 tblspn extra-virgin cold-pressed olive oil

Method

  1. Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Puree until smooth.
  2. Wet hair and apply mixture. Massage into scalp, and rub through with fingers to tips. Run a fine-toothed comb through your hair to evenly distribute the mixture.
  3. Place either a plastic shower cap or towel on your head; leave conditioner on for 20 minutes. The heat created by covering the head allows the mixture to more fully penetrate the scalp and hair.
  4. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Shampoo and style as usual.

  • I think the sour cream would turn these ingredients into a dip! I imagine the avocado and olive oil would be enough fir a scalp moisturiser
