Now if your bananas are afford use them on your hair. Bananas are rich in potassium and their emollient properties will make it glossy. 1 very ripe banana 2 tablespoon plain yoghurt 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil 1 egg white Beat egg white till light and fluffy then spoon into mashed banana, yoghurt and oil mixture. Apply to clean, damp hair. Leave for 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with a hint of shampoo

well I personnaly only use a whole egg that I would beat and then pour on my hair and then I wash my hair normally and it always leave them smooth and very shiny I had never hear about the banana ... have you tried it yourself? are you sure it is really the banana properties helping and not the egg or the oil? no offense, just wondering

Yes of course I did try it and it is the potassium in it which is great as you will find out.

This really does sound good enough to eat , I would love to try this but don't think I will ever get the chance . I buy a lot of Bananas but Ross just loves them , they never get the chance to go ripe on me lol , but thanks anyway pal , it sound brilliant , I sometimes use vinegar to rinse my hair because it is dark xx

This sounds as though it is what I need for my hair - just a bit worried I'd do it wrong and have clumps of banana and yoghurt stuck in my hair! Think I will try it when I feel a bit better! xxx
