I've heard about things that girls do to their hair to make it softer, such as things dealing with eggs and mayonaise, but the thing is...I don't know what exactly you're supposed to DO with it. Girls, what do you use besides conditioner to make your hair softer? And for those of you who know how to use the eggs or mayo, how exactly do you do it?

Take any of the following oils.....
Olive oil, coconut oil, or avocado oil, and apply to the hair, WHILE ITS DRY! Work it through from scalp to ends, cover with some type of plastic cap.. then take a towel HOT from the dryer, and wrap it around your head turban style..... Leave it on for about one hour, or even more for extra dry, damaged hair.
Wash your hair with a tiny bit of moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Run your hair under cold water. Squeeze out the excess water and apply a GOOD leave in conditioner.
Detangle any knots using a wide-toothed comb If your hair is really knotty, try using a detangling spray. Do not brush!
Tips
Before you get out of the shower, rinse your hair with cold water. This will make your hair extra shiny!
When blowdrying your hair, make sure the hairdryer is pointing down, so that all the hair folicles point down, which equals super shiny hair, which is the look we're going for! Also, before blow-drying, consider applying a heat protection spray.
Don't use too much hair serum or hair products, because you don't want your hair to look lank and greasy.
Some good products to try: Chi Silk Infusion or Redken Smooth Down, Nexxus Heat Protexx.
If your hair is fragile, use a low setting on the iron. If it's thick and unruly, make the heat almost the hottest it can be.
Warnings
Don't brush your hair when it's wet, because it stretches and breaks the hair. Always use a wide-toothed comb.
If you're in a rush and need to dry your hair, don't take the easy way out and use your hair straightner when it's wet. See that steam coming out? It dries out your hair. Always use a hairdryer prior to straightening.
ALWAYS use heat protection spray or else your hair will get damaged from straightener.

I bought John Frieda Luminous Hair Glaze because I wanted to see if it would lighten my hair. It didn't but it gave it such an awesome softness. I just put it in right after I wash my hair and leave it while I finish my shower (about 10 minutes) and then rinse. You might need to put a little shampoo in the roots of the top of your head and by the temples so it won't get greasy but it's SOOO SOFT. Try it. I use it every day. It lasts awhile for being such a little bottle.

Okay, first ... I'm not a girl , but I can answer that
question because I'm a hairstylist . The best thing
that you can do for softer hair is wash it less often .
Wheather you use mayo eggs or beer nothing is
better for your hair than its own natural oil . Instead
of washing it every day , rinse it one day and then
wash it the next . After a month you should start
to notice the difference . Wouldn't you rather have a
little oil in your hair than an egg ? I can tell you what
will smell better after a day or so ;)

Put ONE spray of Garnier Fructise shine on earlier than you straighten it, earlier than i dries straighten your hair as a way to make it smoothe and glossy and smooth. Also Herbal essence has some thing known as pin immediately mousse. Use that after which restraighten your hair. And it might aid if u had an steeply-priced straightener, a CHI might be the fine manufacturer by way of a long way however they're steeply-priced, so if u dont have one get one. Or simply make do with what you've got.

What i do is i mix:
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup vegatable oil
a tiny bit of lemon juice
in a bowl and mix it up really well. I then put it in my hair and put on a shower cap and leave on for 45 minutes.Afterwards rinse and shampoo. do this once a week and only shampoo once a week too (i know it may sound gross but it works)

use my tip
Lemony Bath Gel!
Ingredients:
2 spoons (about 30 ml) of honey.
2 spoons (about 30 ml) of fresh lemon juice
2 spoons (about 30 ml) of bath foam/gel
Preparation: Mix in the honey and the lemon juice with the bath gel and stir evenly. When you have obtained a homogenous compound, mix with water and lather on. Your end product will make you feel relaxed and smelling good! Honey moisturises your skin and lemon minimises your pores!

You can use apple cider vinegar after washing your hair, just use it as a conditioner and it washes out all the soap residue and makes your hair really soft. Just pour it over your hair while showering. Careful not to get into your eyes, it burns.

I use the super-dense conditioner that comes with hair dye (no, really).
It softens my hair until it's like...well, silky, and soft as a kitten. Which is pretty darn soft.

After I wash my hair I put in hair serum. Not only does it make my hair soft, shiny and smelly fresh but it makes it soo soft. Then I blow dry it to infuse the serum and boom. Good hair.
