Another day, another matcha hair mask. If you’ve been living in the world of DIY skincare, and have followed us for a while, you already know matcha face masks are that girl. But did you know that the matcha hair mask train is also a big deal? Yup, the same matcha powder you love whisking into your lattes and face masks can also transform your locks.
So when I was looking for inspiration for new DIYs to try, I came across a matcha olive oil hair mask, a deeply moisturizing, conditioning, and shine-boosting recipe that turns “bad hair day” into “bad b**ch energy.” Think extra hydration for your strands, with softness, glow, and a little extra drama.
ingredients list (and why they slap)
Here’s what you’ll need to create this easy DIY mask. Spoiler: it’s only three ingredients, and they’re likely already in your kitchen.
-
1 tbsp Matcha DNA organic matcha powder
You know the deal. Packed with antioxidants, it helps fight scalp buildup and supports healthier hair growth. -
2–3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
The OG of hair care: deeply moisturizing, reduces frizz, and restores natural shine. -
2 tsp honey
Another staple in our DIYs, it’s a natural humectant that locks in hydration and leaves your hair silky-soft.
step-by-step instructions (easy-peasy, I promise)
-
Mix it up: In a small bowl, combine the matcha powder and olive oil until smooth. Stir in the honey until the paste is glossy and uniform.
-
Prep your hair: Section your hair to make application easier and more even.
-
Apply the mask: Gently massage the mixture into your scalp (hello scalp detox), then work it through to the tips. You can do this with your fingertips or use a scalp brush for that fancy spa experience.
-
Lock it in: Cover with a shower cap to help the mask penetrate. Let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes. This is your time to make yourself a matcha latte and unwind.
-
Rinse & glow: Once the time has passed, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, and then wash with your regular shampoo and conditioner. You might want to double shampoo to make sure you get all the residue.
that’s all for now, wanna keep the glow train going?
This hair mask feels incredible, and you’ll notice the difference right away: softer strands, shinier hair, and a scalp that feels brand new. That’s what you get when you combine matcha tea benefits with olive oil’s natural moisture.
