Between swimming in the pool, the ocean and laying out, my hair is screaming for moisture. This DIY mask will help revive sad strands --> Mix one ripe avocado, one egg, one tablespoon honey and one tablespoon coconut oil into a blender. Apply from mid-shaft to the ends and cover with a shower cap. Leave on for 20 minutes and rinse!
