How to Make a Honey and Sage Deep Conditioner

Although shampooing cleans your hair, it removes the natural oils that keep it manageable and healthy-looking. Make your own deep conditioner to apply after shampooing your hair. You will need natural ingredients from an herb shop or select home-and-garden shop, as will items commonly found in the kitchen. No special safety precautions need to be taken since the deep conditioner you will make is nontoxic.
