Washing hair with egg whites?

[676]

I’ve heard many people say that washing hair with raw egg whites is good for it. I tried it once and didn’t really see any difference. I applied the egg whites to my hair and left it in for about 5 minutes and then rinsed it out. Let me know if i did something wrong.

I think its the egg yolks, not egg whites. So try that.

@676 Try a mixture of egg yolks and olive oil, my friend did that and his hair turned out really good. Not sure how long he let it sit though

@676 Look at the YouTube channel Softmaxxer and look at his videos on hair. He has all the information you would need about hair. The particular part of the egg that nurtures the hair the most is the yolk. The whites probably strip the hair of the oils.

My bad, I meant to put SelfMaxxer, oops.

@676 I tried using whipped raw egg and aloe gel as shampoo for a few days to see if i could regrow and/or thicken my hair. It made no difference and I smelled like shrimp all day. Maybe i didn't use good enough quality eggs?

@ruebezahl69 I once put my hair full of tallow and i couldnt get it off so i had to go to school looking like goblin with my super oily hair lol

@Rabbi yeah hair stuff can be too much of a hassle. I shaved my head like a year ago just so I wouldn't have to use any products or tamper with it

[Rabbi]

@ruebezahl69 yeah thats smart also, i have long hair and its perfect consistency not too dry and not too oily. good texture also. i just use sea salt spray once in a while and never use shampoo.

@ela @676 1-2 minutes, wash it out with cold water

@676 for me the whites dry out my scalp, so I only use the yolks and a tiny bit of olive oil, let is sit for around 2 mins then wash it out, works best for me
