Hair treatment (for girls)

[Iris]

After some time of washing with regular shampoo again (simply because too lazy to prepare shampoo every time I want to wash my hair) I returned back to the yolk shampoo. My hair looks, smells and feels much better then. The first 2 times though, afterwards my hair looked dull, flat, plain horrible! So I tried rinsing it with vinegar after washing it with the yolks. This morning was the second time I tried that (first time was still horrible) and let it dry naturally (as usual) and whow! It finally is back to normal again, but then it looks even better! I have very frizzy hair, and when I have washed it it curls a lot (only for a day). Now it curls even more and there's no frizz at all! And still very voluminous I think I have found myself a new regime

Do you use just the liquid of the egg yolk, or the whole yolk including the membrane, or do you use the egg whites as well?
Do you use the yolk on the scalp or on the hair or both?
Does it clog the sink?
Jealous. I might try it.

I use only the fluid. Or, that's the idea at least Sometimes I'm in a hurry and so I skip that part, but I get "rewarded" for being lazy with dried yolk bag's hanging in my hair... Trust me, you don't want that Don't use the white because it will dry out your hair (and it's pretty hard to wash out, plus the same problem as with the sacks.

I do use it on my scalp. I wet my hair under the (lukewarm, as cold as possible) shower, then squeeze most water out, apply yolk liquid all over your hair and scalp, let it sit for 5-10 minutes and then wash out thoroughly(!) When you're done just pour vinegar over your hair. This is best done bend over, because you don't want the vinegar in your eyes!

Iris,
How long is your hair and how many egg yolks do you use per wash?
Are you not bothered by the smell of egg or vinegar in your hair after the wash?
I was, but it seems to help to put some essential oils in the mix

I have fairly long hair (across the shoulder blades), and use 8 egs. Could use less I suppose, but I like having plenty to wash my hair (always used pretty much shampoo too, bad habit ). No, I'm not bothered by the smell of the yolks. After washing, my hair just smells clean, I don't smell any yolk. The vinegar on the other hand... I don't like the smell of that on my hair at all.... So much I stopped using it actually. So I'm back to experimenting again. Going to try honey next, and rhassoul clay. Maybe a mixture of that? And maybe going to try diluting vinegar with water (1:1).

maybe going to try diluting vinegar with water (1:1).

1:1 seems like alot. (oh wait, what are the units? Is it 1 tsp : 1 L water?)
I used ~1 tbsp vinegar to 250ml water, as a conditioner, i think it is already too acidic though because sometimes my hair appears really dry.
I wet the comb with the solution and comb the liquid through the hair, so I don't need that much conditioner.
I once calculated 1 tbsp vinegar to 3 L water as a skin friendly pH.

Hello everyone, I'm new, so pardon me if I make an error. My daughter and granddaughter live in Holland and both of them have long, thick hair that is prone to being fly away and frizzy. They were over visiting us in the UK in the first week of May. Sam (daughter)has below shoulder length hair with loose curls, very thick uses henna but no conditioner, etc. and Maya (GD) also has below shoulder length hair fine, quite thick but just wavy, she just shampoos, again no conditioner. Our water is very soft and I gave them what I use to protect my hair - Pro Naturals. It was amazing to see the results after just one day's use. After rinsing out the hair mask they applied the Argan Oil leave in treatment, both air dried their hair. Result: very soft, soooo shiny and definite reduction in flyaway. They went back to Holland with my products!

Yes, all you need is oil.
Oil makes frizzy hair very soft and shiny. (my children have frizzy hair whenever we do not apply oil to their hair)
