ORS HAIRestore Hair Mayonnaise 16 oz
Hair mayonnaise is a protein treatment first and a conditioner second, and knowing that order is what stops people using it wrong.
ORS builds this one on egg protein, olive oil, wheat germ oil and a blend of nourishing herbs, so the protein that firms up a weak strand arrives with enough oil behind it to keep the hair from turning stiff. It moisturises, strengthens and puts shine back into lengths that have gone dull. The moment it earns its place is after something has stressed the hair: taking out braids or extensions, a colour service, or a run of months where the ends have started snapping in the comb. Protein makes a soft, mushy strand behave like hair again. The catch is that protein and moisture work in a balance, so this belongs in a routine every few weeks rather than every wash.
Most of the result comes from the application. Work it into wet hair in sections, comb it through so every strand gets some, cover with a plastic cap and sit under a warm dryer for 15 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and towel dry.
The 16 oz tub is the size for a standing wash day habit rather than the occasional rescue. Best on wavy through curly hair, 2A to 3C, that feels weak and over-processed rather than merely dry.

Application tips
Wet hair takes it best, and sections make the difference between coating the outside and reaching every strand. Four sections, a scoop each, combed from ends to roots.
Heat gets more out of it, so a cap and fifteen minutes of gentle warmth is worth the trouble. Once a fortnight suits most hair, weekly only if it is badly damaged. Rinse well and follow with a moisturising conditioner.
Results
Protein is what this delivers, and the effect on over-processed hair is immediate: the strand firms up, stretches less alarmingly when wet, and stops feeling like wet wool.
Shine improves and the hair holds a set better. The 16oz tub is the size to buy if you treat regularly or share it, and it earns its keep after braids or extensions come out, when hair is at its weakest.
