Honey Hair Conditioner Formula

Adapted from Naturally Healthy Hair, by Mary Beth Janssen (Storey Books, 1999).
Honey is made by bees from the nectar of flowering plants and trees. It is high in vitamins and minerals, and has wonderful benefits for the skin and hair. Honey is a good humectant and emollient, serving as a good moisturizer and conditioner.
Take out some time to try this easy honey hair conditioner. The benefits will really show:
Directions for using honey in hair.
Add a teaspoon of honey to a teaspoon of shampoo, or use honey by itself as a wonderful hair pack and conditioner.
Work 1/2 cup through your hair (using more or less according to your hair length).
Put a plastic shower cap or bag over the hair for 20 to 30 minutes to let your body heat optimize the conditioning benefit of the honey, then shampoo and rinse thoroughly.

I raise bees. I make my own facial masks from honey. I make my own bees wax candles. Why did I not link of my hair? Great idea. I will be using this product soon. I like to using raw honey with all of its enzymes intact and not disrupted by the heat used in processing the commercial product. People do not have to raise bees, liker I do, to enjoy the benefits of raw honey, it can be purchased at health food stores and co-ops.

If you add olive oil to the honey it thins it out and ups the moisturizing factor. I use honey as a facial once a week for 20 minutes and after rinsing it off my skin feels AMAZING.

Since bees are becoming precious, I wonder if this a good idea not to mention expensive and a little messy...

Honey is soothing and healing, and expensive. think i would dilute it first. Kind of a waste of a precious food product to use that much

I didn't have any conditioner with me during my recent trip to CA; kayaking and getting some epsom salt in my hair didn't help. I did have some raw honey with me which I decided to put on my hair after using it as a cleanser (since it couldn't come back on the plane with me, I decided to test it out). I'm happy to say that it DID soften my long hair (and soothed my parched skin) and rinsed out easily. I think that honey may be my new favourite beauty item for the shower! Just remember to use (or reuse) a squeeze bottle to keep water from getting into the container.
