Olive Oil Hair Treatment

I never dared to go to a salon to get a perm, hot oil or any of that to my hair. I remember this hairdresser years ago who used these harsh chemicals leaving my hair looking worse. I am glad my hair slowly recovered, and since then, this phobia always made me want to skip what they (hairdressers) wanted to do to my hair. Until I read online that olive oil is beneficial for the hair. I was a little hesitant because it IS oil, but reading other people's beauty stories made me want to try it.

Olive oil is one natural ingredient that is packed with wonderful healthy fats either you consume it or apply on the skin, you can also use it as a hair mask once a week to keep the hair shine, healthy and vibrant. This hair mask is good for all hair types.

As a matter of fact, I have Olive Oil on my hair right now. :)

  1. In a small bowl, heat 2-3 tablespoons of Olive oil for 20 seconds in a microwave. Increase or reduce the amount of Olive oil depending on the length and thickness of your hair. Do not heat the oil for longer periods because it could burn your hair or scalp.
  2. Massage and evenly distribute the oil focusing the ends of your hair.
  3. Cover your hair with a shower cap or a grocery bag and wait for 30 minutes. The heat that gets trapped inside the plastic will help absorb the oil into your hair.
  4. Wash it off with lukewarm water and shampoo.
  5. Don't use a blow dryer. Let your hair dry naturally.

I love this hair mask! It is easy to do right in the comfort of your home without breaking the bank. The ingredient is very natural so it's good for you.
