3 Reasons Why You Should Do Hot Oil Treatment
Hot oil treatment plays a vital role in my hair regimen. It is important in the overall health of my hair. Here are some benefits I get from this treatment:
1. It stimulates hair growth: Hot oil treatment moisturizes the hair follicle and strengthen the hair shaft, preventing hair breakage and promoting hair growth.
2. Nourishes the scalp: The use of hot oil treatment has a conditioning effect on the scalp, especially for those with dry, brittle hair. This treatment helps restore the hair to its best possible condition.
3. Gives hair a nice shine: The moisture infused into the hair during hot oil treatment gives the hair a shiny look.
I mince garlic cloves and soak in oil (coconut oil, olive oil etc) for a week or more.
STEPS ON HOW I DO MY HOT OIL TREATMENT
- Drain out the oil I want to use into an applicator bottle. If an applicator bottle isn't available, any glass or plastic bottle would be ok to use.
- Warm the oil in a basin of hot water.
- Finger detangle and section hair.
- Apply to hair (you may want to slightly dampen your hair before applying the oil) and massage oil into each section.
- Put on a plastic cap (shower cap) for 30 minutes or more.
- Shampoo.
How often you get hot oil treatment depends on the texture and dryness of your hair. If you have a dry scalp getting this treatment regularly helps prevent dryness and breakage, you should do this with caution to avoid over saturating hair. Wash hair regularly to avoid oil build up.
