Almond Milk Deep Conditioner

The other day as I was doing my shopping and I came across almond milk and decided to buy it. I’ve used sweet almond oil on my hair before with good results and I figured maybe I should try the milk…

Having used coconut milk for deep conditioning before, I thought maybe the same could be true for almond milk. 

Side note: I decided to taste the milk out of curiosity. Yuck! It almost tasted like that white medicine (milk of magnesia) our parents used to make us drink as children for inyongo. If you’ve read my other posts, see here, you’re probably starting to get an inkling that I didn’t like lendaba yenyongo at all. It was the bane of my existence as a kid. 

Anyway, back to the deep conditioner, I used the following products:

• Almond milk – contains protein, fatty acids, vitamins A and E – these components strengthen and moisturise hair, reducing shedding.

• Honey – conditions, promotes good health of both hair and scalp (antiseptic qualities)

• Olive oil – it’s an anti-inflammatory and contains vitamin E – good for your scalp, moisturises and promotes hair growth. 

I warmed the milk to facilitate the dissolution on honey, and a warmer temperature works better on my low porosity hair. 

I applied the conditioner on washed hair, put on a plastic cap and left it on for about an hour. I then rinsed it off and continued with my normal routine; moisturise, stretch and style; see here .

My hair felt super soft and moisturised afterwards, I’ll definitely use to this deep conditioner again!

PS: I used the reminder of the milk to make a smoothie, cos I wasn't going to throw it away. It isn’t too bad when tempered with 👀.
