Hot Oil Treatment

As you all probably know, I suffer from extremely dry scalp, so a hot oil treatment is right up my alley!

Ingredients:
(3 tbsps of the following oils)
Safflower Oil
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Castor Oil
Jojoba Oil
Vitamin E Oil

Directions:
1. Combine oils in a small glass bowl.
2. Heat oils in microwave until warm enough to where you can stand the heat on your head.
3. Apply oils, in sections, to dirty hair. This is a pre-poo treatment!
4. Cover your hair with a plastic cap and wrap with a warm towel.
5. Apply oils to penetrate your hair for 30 mins to and hour.
6. Rinse and shampoo and regular.
7. Enjoy your moisturized hair!

NOTE: I usually apply this treatment every 2-3 weeks. If you notice your hair starting to get oily, ease up on the treatments. Just use the oils as needed.

Homemade Shea Butter Deep Conditioner

After a long and tiring search for a deep conditioner that actually worked and provided my hair with moisture (other than WEN Remoist), I decided to make my own!

Ingredients:
2 tbls raw, unrefined shea butter (google it, surprisingly cheap)
3 tsp Olive Oil
2 tsp Tea Tree Oil
1/2 cup conditioner (I use Cantu Rinse Out Conditioner but you can use your favorite brand!)

1. Pour the conditioner in a bowl and mix in olive oil and tea tree oil.
2. In a separate bowl, melt shea butter completely in microwave (my house is always cold so the shea butter is always hard)
3. Add shea butter to conditioner and mix well, let it cool down.
4. After washing or co-washing your hair, apply mixture soaking wet to hair in sections (I part my hair into quarters and apply) DO NOT COMB!
5. Sit under a hard bonnet dryer for 45 mins to an hour!
6. Allow hair to cool off.
7. Comb with a wide tooth comb.
8. Rinse out, leaving about 5% of the conditioner in.
9. Style as usual
10. Enjoy your moisturized hair!

Ingredients....see! There's the shea butter lol

End result. ENJOY!!!
