One of the greatest ingredients for hair repair can be found in your kitchen — bananas! Bananas are rich in potassium to strengthen hair, minimize breakage and restore your hair’s natural elasticity. Bananas also moisturize your hair as they contain beneficial oils and about 75% water. Strong, moisturized hair also is less prone to frizzing and tangling. In addition, the fruit is packed with vitamin A, B6, C, and E, as well as zinc and iron. Here is an easy recipe you can try out in your home or spa.

Large Mixing Bowl
Measuring Spoons
Hand mixer

1 Ripe Banana
2 Tbsp Plain Whole Milk Yogurt
