    Blending Procedure:

    1. Measure the mayonnaise into a bowl.

    2. Crack the egg and add it (yolk and white) to the mayonnaise.

    3. Mix the two ingredients evenly, allowing the yolk to act as an emulsifier. Blend for a few minutes until the mayonnaise becomes more liquidy along with the egg.

    4. Carefully spoon the mixture on your dry hair, soaking it from root to tips. Add more to the tips of your hair (where it can be especially dry) and then bundle your hair on top of your head and secure it with a clip or cap. Leave on for at least 15 minutes, longer if your hair is super damaged or dry.

    5. Rinse the mixture off and then shampoo and style as usual.

    "This is a great tip; only i would leave out the egg white. I did this recipe back when i was at high school. The morning after using the mask, a girl came up to me in the corridor and told me there was something white in my hair. It turned out to be the egg white that had cooked itself in my hair when i blew dry it! So if you do use the egg white in, be cautious to thoroughly rinse and comb out any left over egg white!"
