Have any of you guys every tried putting Mayo in your hair? No? You don't like your hair smelling like a sandwich? Oh...that's weird...
Well, I like my hair smelling like a subway sandwich. And I thought you guys might like to know a little bit about the process. About 8 years ago when I went to hair school, I learned about how mayonnaise and olive oil can be put in your locks for a deep conditioner. I never tried it because I HATE the smell and taste of mayo. But, I got over it and decided to try it.
It went a little something like this:
1. I washed my hair in the shower.
2. I mixed up some mayo and olive oil.
I put about 1/3 cup of mayo and a couple teaspoons of olive oil.
3. I threw an old towel in the dryer
(a warm towel will help process the deep conditioner)
4. Then while the towel was drying, I put the olive oil and mayo mixture all throughout the ENDS of my hair. I stayed away from the roots because as you know, I don't condition my roots.
I hope you like seeing me straight out of the shower...
5. Then I wrapped my hair up in the warm towel and waited about 20 minutes.
6. Then I rinsed and shampooed every mayo remnant out of my hair.
It seemed to work very well. When I first got out of the shower, it seemed a little more tangly than usual, but then after I dried it, it was silky smooth.
Have any of you guys ever tried mayo in your hair?? If not, are you brave enough to try it?

Seems awesome! I would love to go for it!
When I was in high school I heard about mayo in the hair as a conditioner. Well, while in the shower one day I decided to try it. So, I hopped out, grabbed the mayo, and put it in my hair.
But...I didn't wash it out well enough and my hair was gross the next day.
When I got out of the shower I called a good friend of mine and told her...she cracked up because she knows I hate mayo!
But, this looks like it may be worth a shot.
My hubby gets dandruff really bad and I massaged the same mixture into his scalp. Made a HUGE difference for a couple of months! But I've yet to try it on my own hair... HA maybe I should :)
sounds gross. but i'll try it if you say it makes hair smoother!
My mom totally put mayo in my hair when I was in Jr. High because it was really dry. I guess it worked! Haha!
