After buying a huge bottle of olive oil , I have been thinking of all the various uses it might have, which made me think about using it as a hair moisturizer. I have very dry hair and scalp, so pouring olive oil on my head actually makes a lot of sense. Anyway, I was ready to give it a try. So I did, and my hair felt soft and silky so this is something I might do every to weeks. If you'd like to try it, here's what I did:
1. Warm about 1/4 cup of olive oil.
2. Pace a towel around your shoulders to keep the olive oil from staining your clothes.
3. Pour a little oil into the palm of your hand, rub hands together.
4. Work oil into your hair (and scalp too, if needed). Repeat, until you have covered all areas.
5. Once the oil is evenly distributed, comb through.
6. Tie your hair up or place hair in a plastic shower cap.
7. Let the oil soak in for 15 to 30 minutes.
8. Shampoo the oil out of your hair until it no longer feels oily. You may need to shampoo several times.
9. Condition with your regular hair conditioner and rinse well.
