Your extensions need extra TLC, merely because they aren’t attached to your scalp and aren’t receiving nutrition from your body. Our hair extensions need vitamins, minerals, moisture, and protein like our natural hair. Here are 15 DIY deep conditioners products for your hair extensions!
DIY Deep Conditioner #1. Hair Mayo Madness
What I love about this recipe is there is no wrong or right way to mix it!
You will need:
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Tea Tree Oil
- Castor Oil
- One Egg
- Hair Mayo
- Coconut Oil
Instructions: You can use as much or as little of each ingredient to customize the deep conditioner for your hair extensions. For extra dry and damaged hair, use more oil. If your extensions are not dry and are just a little kinky, use less oil to prevent grease build-up.
I love to start with three tablespoons of hair mayo, one tablespoon of coconut oil, one teaspoon of tea tree oil, and one egg. Use a fork to mix the ingredients until there are no lumps evenly.
After you shampoo your extensions, towel-dry the majority of water from the hair, then, use your hands to apply your DIY deep conditioners to the extensions. Comb the mixture through to ensure even distribution. Place your extensions in a plastic bag for 1 hour.
Thoroughly rinse the hair with warm to hot water and blow-dry.
2. Honey Hydration
These DIY deep conditioners are great to use on your hair extensions, but don’t be afraid to throw it on your natural hair as well if you have some leftovers! Honey is a fantastic humectant, drawing much-needed moisture to your parched strands.
You will need:
- Honey
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Instructions: Mix 4 oz (1oz = 29.5ml) of honey with 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Mix thoroughly with a fork until the mixture is smooth. Apply this to freshly shampooed and towel-dried hair. Allow your extensions to a deep condition in a bag for at least an hour before rinsing out.
DIY Deep Conditioner #3. Eggs Protein
Eggs are a great source of protein for your natural hair and your extensions. If you have color processed your extensions, chances are they need some protein! These DIY deep conditioners are cheap (only 3 eggs) and packs the punch your curls need.
Instructions: Crack 3 eggs in a bowl and whisk them until the mixture is completely smooth. Apply this treatment to freshly shampooed and towel-dried extensions. Sit your extensions in a bag and allow them to condition for at least an hour before rinsing. Use your favorite conditioner to co-wash the hair if there is a lingering smell of eggs.
4. Avocado
Not only does avocado make delicious guacamole, but it is also an amazing deep conditioner! Avocado is a superhero for dry hair. Packed full of vitamins A, D, E, and B6, avocado is also high in protein, amino acids, magnesium, folic acid, and iron. Avocado is also one of the few oils that can penetrate the hair cuticle and truly moisturize your hair!
You will need:
- 1 Ripe Hass Avocado
- Blender
Note: You can use any avocado for this recipe, but I recommend Hass avocados because they are easier to mix.
Instructions: Peel one avocado and adds the contents to the blender without the seed. Turn the blender on and slowly add water until the avocado becomes a creamy consistency. Pour the mixture into a plastic bowl. Apply the avocado to freshly shampooed hair and rinse thoroughly.
DIY Deep Conditioner #5. Aloe Vera Deep Conditioner
Aloe vera is incredibly beneficial for your hair extensions, due to its ability to deeply moisturize the hair and add a beautiful shine. Olive oil is an amazing source of vitamins, which strengthens the hair and also adds a natural shine.
You will need:

Instructions: Squeeze 6oz of aloe vera gel into a plastic bowl and add a teaspoon of olive oil. Use a fork to whisk until the aloe vera is an even consistency. Apply to freshly washed extensions and rinse thoroughly.
6. Almond Oil Treatment
Almond oil is rich in vitamins E, A, D, and B, and it also contains proteins that benefit the strength of the hair. This almond oil treatment is great for colored hair extensions because it will restore some of the protein lost from harsh bleaching chemicals.
Heat up 80 oz of almond oil in the microwave or on a stovetop. Do not heat the oil to high heat, heat the oil to be warm. Using gloves, apply the heated oil to your extensions, focusing on the ends. Place the extensions in a bag and allow them to sit overnight. The next day, shampoo the almond oil out with sulfate-free shampoo and condition as normal.

Banana and avocado are great on their own, but when combined they take your hair to the next level. This DIY deep conditioners is sure to rejuvenate your dry, brittle extensions.

Apply to your extensions from tip to root and allow the hair to sit in a bag for at least an hour before washing with a sulfate-free shampoo.

DIY Deep Conditioner #13. Banana For Dry Hair
Let me tell you first if no one else does, when it comes to treating dry hair, bananas are one of the best-kept secrets. Bananas are rich in vitamins such as Vitamin A and potassium. For this DIY deep conditioner, you will also be using olive oil, which has been frequently used in a lot of these deep conditioners. Olive oil is used to help penetrate and add moisture to dry parched strands. The last and final ingredient is yogurt. Yogurt will provide the hair with a healthy balance of moisture and protein to help soften dry hair strands.

When using bananas, it can be tough to get all the lumps out. To remove the pieces, pour the mixture through a strainer. This will help to remove any extra lumps or banana pulp that you won’t want to deal with when you apply the conditioner to your hair. Apply the conditioner to wet hair then cover your hair with a plastic conditioning cap. Leave the conditioner on for a minimum of 30 minutes before rinsing it out thoroughly.
