Instructions

  • Warm the oil in a heat-safe container or in a glass mostly submersed in water on the stove top. Be sure not to heat it too long, since you’ll want it lukewarm for application.
  • Apply oil to the root end first, and work it through the rest of the hair with your fingertips. The longer your hair, the more oil you will need.
  • Wrap hair with a warm, wet towel and leave the oil in for 20–30 minutes.
  • Shampoo and rinse well when finished.
  • This treatment can be done twice a month for optimal results.
