All you need is one egg (depending on the thickness/length of your hair), and one or two teaspoons of cayenne pepper.  The egg is for protein, dullness, to provide Vitamins A, D, B-12, and E, also amino acids and Sulfur, which is a growth stimulate. An egg can provide the moisture that your hair is lacking, hence why it is so dry, which can then result in breakage. As...
