1 Remove mayonnaise from refrigerator 1 / 2-1 hour before use to warm up to room temperature. Fats and oils from mayonnaise will penetrate more easily into your hair follicles if the mayonnaise is warm. Use about 1/2 cup mayonnaise, depending on the length of your hair.

2 Rinse your hair with hot water before applying mayonnaise, but do not use shampoo. When the hair heats up, the follicles open up, allowing the mayonnaise to penetrate the hair.

3 Massage your hair and scalp with mayonnaise, being careful to cover each strand thoroughly and focus on the ends. Gather your hair at the crown as soon as you cover it completely.

4 Cover your hair with a plastic shower cap or plastic bag, then place a towel over your head to keep warm. Leave the mayonnaise on your hair for 1/2 to 1 hour, depending on how badly your hair needs conditioning.

5 Remove the towel and plastic cap and rinse the mayonnaise off your hair with hot water. Allow your hair to air dry and wait 24 hours before shampooing your hair. The oils left over from rinsing off the mayonnaise will continue to condition the hair.

Tips

• If your hair is very dry and damaged, leave the mayonnaise overnight. Cover your pillow with plastic in case the mayonnaise leaks overnight. Or use a tighter-fitting beanie to keep it firmly in place.
• Leftover conditioner can also be used as a face mask. Apply to cleansed face, leave on for 10-20 minutes, and then wash off with mild soap and hot water. Also, try lubricating dry hands, feet, and elbows.
• To enhance the properties of mayonnaise, add 1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil and 2 egg yolks. Store unused conditioner in the refrigerator and warm to room temperature before using.
