BLT Hair Conditioner

Completely coat your hair with cooled bacon grease, wrap coated hair in a towel and allow to sit for 8-10 minutes. Wash hair with lettuce and tomato based shampoo available at Bubba and Cooter's Health Food Stores everywhere. Before drying hair dab a small amount of Miracle Whip in your hand as a styling agent and gently run fingers through your hair, keeping in mind a little goes along way.

Then dry hair with a blow dryer set on low and while standing over your toaster as it toasts at least four pieces of Wonder bread. This will allow the aroma of toasted bread to permeate the hair follicles. Style as usual. You will benefit from the aroma of BLT's for days to come!
