How to Make a Hot Oil Hair Treatment

Hot oil treatments are popular in treating hair that is dry or damaged, or even just to give healthy and normal hair a bit of a boost. This natural hot oil treatment offers the benefits of standard commercial hot oil treatments. I suggest using this hot oil treatment once every 1-2 weeks, though you can use it more often if you have severely damaged or dry hair.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 2 Tablespoons of Avocado Oil
• 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
• 1/4 Teaspoon of Dried Chamomile
• 1/4 Teaspoon of Dried Calendula

1. Pour the avocado oil and olive oil into a microwaveable safe dish, then microwave on high for about 15 seconds. If you don't have a microwave, just warm them in a small pan on low for about 5 minutes.

2. Pour the dried chamomile and dried calendula over the oil, and stir the mixture together gently. Allow the mixture to sit out for about 5 minutes.

3. Strain the oil into a small cup, then allow it to cool until it's warm, but not too hot to touch.

4. Massage the oil into the hair and scalp, then wrap the hair with plastic wrap or put on a tight shower cap. Wait 20 minutes, then rinse out with cool or warm water. Be sure not to use hot water though.
