DIY Avocado Protein Hair Mask for Damaged Split Ends

I love beauty hacks.

Especially since the ingredients that the Earth gives us are a thousand times better than any beauty care product-especially ones filled with chemicals, preservatives, and additives that can actually create more damage than you started with, but leaving the appearance of improvement and overall health.

My favorite DIY beauty recipe is for my hair. Having naturally frizzy and curly hair, it almost always subject to harsh split ends and breakage! Yuck. But since I stopped using store bought deep conditioners and opted to make my own, I have seen a ton of improvement in the vitality and strength.

Here is my personal beauty recipe to prevent damaged split ends. Depending on the length and type of your hair, you may have some left over; therefore, you can absolutely store it in a container for the next use. I like to do this twice per week!
