Homemade oil treatments for dry hair:
Olive oil and conditioner treatment:
You only need two ingredients:
Oil and conditioner. You can use olive oil or any oil you have. Put about 1/4 cup of oil in a small saucepan and add a tablespoon of hair conditioner. You can use any kind of crรจme rinse; this is good for using up conditioner that you didn’t particularly like since you will be shampooing it out anyway. Do not use conditioners designed to be left in.
Directions:
Gently heat the oil and the conditioner, stirring as you heat. Remember that oil heats very quickly and can burn quite easily: Never leave unattended. You are only heating it to the point of warming the oil and blending it with the conditioner. Once it is warm, remove from heat. Be sure you test the heat of the oil before putting it on your hair.
If it seems too warm, wait several minutes before applying. Apply the warm oil to dry hair. Using a microwave to heat the oil is not recommended since temperatures are hard to control and you might wind up with part of it being much hotter than the rest.
* If your hair is long, thick or very damaged (as can happen to bleached, permed or dyed hair), it is best to use a comb to work the mixture in and ensure that you have covered every strand, paying particular attention to the ends of the hair. Then you can wrap your hair in plastic wrap to help keep the heat in and leave it on for about 30 minutes. If your hair is shorter or not as damaged, you can just work it in and leave it for five minutes. When the time is up, you will need to shampoo the oil out. The first time you use it, you can skip using additional conditioner, as you don’t want to weigh the hair down too much, but if you notice that your hair seems dry after shampooing, use conditioner. For much damaged hair, use the treatment once a week at least, twice if your hair is very long or damaged.
* Otherwise, every two weeks is all that is required. If you have problems with your scalp, try adding some tea tree oil to your treatments. Tea tree oil isn’t cheap, but you will only use a small amount. It is aย natural anti-fungal and can help greatly with dandruff- ย like problems and seborrhea.
*Alternately, you can just do the ends of your hair (use less oil). You can make up a batch of it to keep on hand, just mix well if you notice the conditioner settling. Use a small squeeze bottle (you can reuse the bottles from hair dye or perm solution after rinsing them out well) to make it easy to apply.
