Eliminate Frizz: Fruit Smoothie
Potassium-rich bananas and cantaloupes help soften rough strands, while a few drops of olive oil keep hair smooth.

2) Apply mixture to damp unwashed hair and comb through from roots to tip.
3) Allow it to sink in for 15-20 minutes ans rinse afterwards. Shampoo and condition your hair, and style as usual.

Fix Split Ends: Avocado Mask
To strengthen brittle ends and repair damage, let moisturizing avocado and soothing honey go to work!
1) Combine 1 can of coconut milk (it gives hair tones of shine), 1 mashed avocado, and 1/2 cup of honey in a bowl.
2) Slather the mixture on dry hair, focusing on split damaged ends. Top with a plastic shower cap.
3) Blast your hair with heat from your blowdryer for five minutes, then allow the mask to soak in for an additional 30 minutes.
4) Rinse well but dont shampoo. Style as usual.

Boost Your Color: Coffee Rinse
Coffee intensifies darker shades to make hair really shine! Soak your hair in this rich, dimensional color.
1) Brew any type of plain nonflavored coffee and let it cool.
2) Pour enough coffee over dry hair until hair is completely soaked then comb through.
3) Cover your head with a plastic shower cap and let the rinse for 20-30 minutes.
4) Rinse well, then shampoo. Give your hair a final rinse with cold water to maximize shine.
