My absolute favorite hair mask ingredients are honey, banana, curd, olive and/or coconut oil, eggs, and lemon. Any combination of these ingredients will give you what you are looking for.
Dry, Rough Hair: Mix honey, banana, Olive or Coconut oil, and an egg. This hair mask makes your hair soft and silky.
Dry, Damaged Hair: 2 parts Coconut oil with 1 part Olive oil mix together and apply the mixture to your hair, focusing on the ends. This will helps to moisturize your hair.
Thinner Hair: Blend banana in a blender with honey. Apply the mixture to your hair.
Dandruff: Mix together lemon juice, honey, and coconut oil.
Growth or re-growth: First, massage lemon juice directly onto your scalp. Then after 15 to 20 minutes apply a mask of banana, melted coconut oil, and an egg.
Those who have dry hair like me then mayonnaise may be a good match for you. It makes hair with softer, shinier, smoother feeling. Mayonnaise helps to deep condition hair. So you can also create your own mayonnaise with these above ingredients. Instated of lemon juice you can use vinegar.

Each of these masks is ideally left for 20 to 25 minutes, but if you feel your hair needs a deeper treatment, it can be left on longer. Be sure rinse out in the shower and follow with shampoo and condition as usual.
