I'm sure many of us have heard and used different regimen in our hair. And then there's chocolate...should I eat or feed my hair? #thestruggle
Chocolate as we know has cardiovascular benefits,stress reducer, the dark chocolate aids in weight loss, and tastes soooo good but its also proven to be good for your hair. It rejuvenates and rebuilds the structure of your hair.
Here's a recipe to a Homemade Chocolate Conditioning Treatment:

1 tbsp honey
1 overripe banana
3 tbsps coconut milk
2 tbsps coconut oil
3-4 tspns melted pure cocoa butter
1-2 tspns jojoba oil (olive oil can be used as a substitute)
1/4-1/2 cup pure cacao (cocoa) powder or enough to thicken
If you make the mixture too thick it will dry out fast and you don't want it to dry out on your hair so to liquify in case it gets too thick just add more coconut milk.
Mash and then blend bananas with coconut milk first until pureed (if not you will end up with banana chunks in your hair). Add cocoa powder last.
Apply with fingers to clean hair, from root to ends until hair is saturated then cover with a plastic cap and let sit about 10 minutes. Rinse out with lukewarm water until water runs clear. Then rinse with an apple-cider vinegar-and-water mixture (1/4 cup apple cider vinegar to a gallon of water) or a mildly clarifying rinse of your choice to ensure any buildup or excess rinses away.
Let you hair savour in the sweetness of chocolate!! :)
