Olive Oil and Your Hair

Olive oil has been proclaimed for health benefits for years. But did you know it is great for a beauty product to. It not only does good for you on the inside it does great for you on the outside as well. One beauty trick is using olive oil for your hair. This is done by making a conditioner from olive oil. It is simple to due and the rewards are great.

So let's get creating. Start by pouring a half a cup of olive oil into a safe microwaveable bowl. Heat the oil for twenty seconds. Next place a towel on your shoulders so you can protect your clothing. Take the oil and pour some into the palm of your hand and start to massage it into your hair. Working it into your scalp is great if it is dry. If you already have oily hair massage 1/2 way down from your scalp. You want to massage the oil into all your hair.

When all the hair is covered, place your hair loosely on top of your head, and then cover your head with a plastic shower cap. Make sure you get all the hair into the cap.

You want to keep the cap on for thirty minutes, the oil is now treating your hair. After thirty minutes, shampoo with a mild shampoo. Also use a light conditioner after shampooing. You will notice right away how much softer your hair is, and how manageable it is. But the best thing you will notice is the shine.
