Things You'll Need:
-
Step 1
In a small microwaveable dish, measure out about 4 to 6 tablespoons of solid coconut oil. Use more for longer hair, less for shorter hair.
-
Step 2
Put this in the microwave and heat it at full power for ten seconds. If the coconut oil is still solid or partially solid, microwave for an additional 5 to 10 seconds and repeat until it is completely liquid.
-
Step 3
Add about 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil to the liquid coconut oil and blend it together with the spoon.
-
Step 4
Immediately apply the liquid to dry hair. One of the easiest ways to do this is to spoon a little of the conditioner onto your hand, rub both hands together then run your fingers and palms through your hair. Concentrate it on the ends of your hair.
-
Step 5
Apply conditioner until your hair is almost saturated, then comb it all through. If your hair is long, twist it into a ponytail and put it on top of your head. Wrap your hair in a bath towel, leave it in place and relax for at least 30 minutes while the conditioner soaks into your hair.
-
Step 6
Wash your hair with your usual shampoo to remove all the conditioner. Your hair should be left shinier and softer. Use the conditioner once a week or every two weeks to keep your hair in good condition.
