You will need:
(Amounts will vary depending on your hair type and length adjust as needed)
Honey
Olive Oil
Plastic Cap
Large Towel
Additional Essential Oils
Applicator Bottle
- In a medium size bowl combine the honey, olive oil and any additional essential oil or carrier oils of your choosing and stir well.
- Gently warm the mixture then transfer to a applicator bottle for easy use. (May want to use a funnel for easy clean up)
- Place large towel around shoulders.
- Apply warm (not hot) mixture to damp hair before or after hair cleansing routine. Working mixture in sections from ends to roots. Detangle hair before in sections for easier usage.
- Place plastic cap over hair, making sure to cover any exposed hair.
- Allow to let sit at least 20 mintues (without heat) or 10-15 mintues (with heat) (I used a hour without heat)
- Remove plastic cap and rinse using warm water. Continue with hair cleansing regimen or regular styling routine.
This treatment is a easy deep treatment for healthier stronger and shiny hair. The use of honey and olive oil is a perfect combination for adding shine and moisture among other things back into the hair. Honey, a natural shine, humectant and strengthening agent. Olive oil, when used on the hair treats many things such as dandruff, frizz, dull hair, dryness etc. I loved using this treatment as a "Pre-Poo" (Pre Shampoo) treatment before Co-washing (Conditioner cleansing) my hair. My hair felt very soft and was easier to manage. Weeks after using this treatment I notice my hair was a lot stronger and I didn't have as much shedding or breakage as I did before. I highly recommend using this treatment at least 2 a month. PLEASE use an applicator bottle I didnt and it was a mess lol.
Side Notes
Side Notes
- This treatment can be thickened and made into a deep conditioner by adding in a heavy amount of raw sheabutter or any thick conditioner you have on hand.
- I recommend using Coconut oil, Vitamin E, Teatree oil or Peppermint oil to this treatment to combat scalp issues or for addtional benifits.
- When rinsing make sure all of the treatment is flushed out with warm water. Honey makes the hair hard once it dries.
