DIY Oil Treatment on Hair - Tip of the Day!

Posted on the 02 August 2013 by Kinderhandbtips
So, we have all heard and know we should deep condition our hair once a week...but did you know you should apply it when your hair is wet?
Yes, wet!  Hair absorbs oil better when it's wet.  Simply using conditioner and oils won't moisturise hair!  You need to wet hair or use water-based product and then seal the moisture in with oil!  Remember this two-part process for moisturised locks!
DIY Oil Treatment on Hair - Tip of the Day!
You can use any oil that you like, such as olive oil, but the best oils to use are either coconut, almond or avocado oils.  Why?  The molecules of these oils are able to penetrate the hair shaft better.  The best oil is equal quantities of avocado and coconut oil!
The best way to do a hot oil treatment is:
1) shampoo your hair
2) apply oil of your choice.  You don't need to go oil-crazy, just apply a teaspoon amount throughout your hair lengths.   Comb through from root to tips of hair
3) cover your hair and let the oil work it's magic (minimum of 30 miniutes)
4) rinse and condition as normal
By doing this routine once a week, you are sure to have gorgeously moisturised hair!
What's your favorite oil to deep condition with?
