Pumpkin Deep Conditioner Recipe

If you’re in the mood to step in the kitchen, try this Pumpkin Deep Conditioner recipe. The result: shiny, soft hair that smells just like the holidays!

• 1/2 cup cooked pumpkin, canned pumpkin puree, or baby food (to avoid chunks of pumpkin stuck in your hair!)

• 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

• 2 tbsp honey

Mix thoroughly and let sit until room temperature (if cooking the pumpkin). 

Wash hair, and apply deep conditioner in sections, smoothing down the cuticle. Let sit for 10-30 minutes depending on hair type or dryness. Rinse with cool water.

   Yup! the directions posted say to smooth it down each section of hair, like you would a regular deep conditioner. when making the DC make sure it’s thick enough and won’t drip!

   hope that helps

   I’ll have to try this using the pumpkin baby food as I’m afraid of having an afro full of pumpkin residue when finished.

   Sigh….I wish Sexy hair concepts hadn’t discontinued the Healthy Sexy Pumpkin line. You can still find it online and at some discout retailers though. I get my pumpkin fix with Darcy’s Pumpkin Seed Condish….used it this morning actually!

   I thought Healthy Sexy Hair line was discontinued? Why would you guys advise something you can’t find anymore? Besides Darcy’s is there anything else out there with pumpkin?
