9. Indulge in the Ultimate DIY Hair Recipe:
Yes, there is an ultimate, DIY hair recovery recipe, and Davide Marinelli, a hairstylist backstage at Jenny Packham for Oribe, just gave it to us. "First, combine a large avocado and five drops of jojoba oil or almond oil into a bowl, mix it until you get a creamy, rich texture, and set it aside," he explains. "Then, add a tablespoon of baking soda into a color-safe clarifying shampoo that's sulfate free and hop in the shower to exfoliate only the scalp — not the hair." Afterwards, Davide recommends towel drying your hair to where it's only slightly damp (not wet!) before applying your avocado treatment.
The dryer the hair is, the more it's going to absorb the formula since wet hair can actually dilute it. "Take an old white t-shirt, dampen it with warm water, and wrap the avocado-covered hair with the t-shirt into a bun," says Davide. After 15 minutes, you can rinse out the avocado and shampoo your hair as you normally would.
Pro tip: if you already have the Oribe Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil ($52) at home, Davide says you can replace the jojoba oil with that for an extra boost in shine.
