Why It Works

Honey naturally moisturizes your hair and scalp.  If you have a dry scalp, honey can help soothe dry skin and reduce flakes.  

Hair is made of protein, and eggs contain protein.  Using eggs naturally conditions your hair and moisturizes your scalp.  Rinse hair with cool water to avoid cooking the egg.

Oil moisturizes your hair and soothes an itchy scalp.  Oil hair masks work better if they are heated before using.  Or you can put on a shower cap to trap your body heat.  Do not warm the oil if you are using an egg in the recipe.
