*clears throat and sings* Eggs, oh how I love thee, on my hair and to eat, you are such a special treat...
Was that too much?!
If you couldn't tell by my little song, eggs are one of my favorite foods, not just to eat either but to slather my hair in as well. Just in case you were unaware, eggs are a great way to give your strands a boost of protein. You can make quite a few awesome deep conditioner recipes with whole eggs and/or just the yolks.
Fun fact: Raw eggs contain a significant concentration of essential proteins and nutrients. Because of the high protein content, eggs can be used to strengthen hair follicles. Likewise, the nutrients work much like conditioners to add volume, shine and texture. (source)
My Egg Deep Conditioner:
2 eggs
1 tbsp Honey
1tbsp Olive Oil
1 cup of coconut milk
1/2 tpspn coconut oil
2 drops of peppermint essential oil
2 drops of rosemary essential oil
2 cap fulls of castor oil
2 caps of jojoba oil
This mix should be added to wet hair in sections.
Be sure to use a towel, it's messy.
Cover with a plastic cap for an hour.
Wash, condition and style as normal.

Yes! I usually mix one egg, olive oil, a bit of pure mayo and some conditioner. Then I place a cap on and sit for about ten minutes. I always make sure not to rinse in too warm of a water now because the egg certainly did cook in my hair once LOL!
