Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 2-4 tablespoons of olive oil
• comb
• shower cap
• warm shower
• shampoo

1. Right before getting into the shower, carefully pour two tablespoons of olive oil on top of your dry hair. If your hair is long, you may want to use a tablespoon or so more.

2. Comb the olive oil through your dry hair. Make sure to comb thoroughly all the way to the ends of your hair to get the most of out this natural hot oil treatment.

3. Tuck your dry hair that's been combed in olive oil into a shower cap. This will allow the olive oil to stay on your hair during your shower.

4. Take a shower as usual. The heat from the water will help the olive oil to go into your dry hair shafts. After a few minutes, take the shower cap off and shampoo as usual. And—voila!—you’ve just experienced one of the cheapest natural hair care products around.
