DIY Deep Conditioning Hair Mask

I’ll make photos for this…
This hair mask is VERY simple and requires only olive oil and Saran Wrap (things you probably already have!) this heated oil mask opens the pores in your hair to allow the oil to penetrate and nourish dry, damaged, or over-processed hair for a very satisfying result! Enjoy!

Step 1: Heat olive oil (coconut oil and grape seed oil work as well) on the stove until it is very warm to the touch but not too hot to handle. 1/4 cup should work for most hair lengths. (You should also be heating a towel to wrap on your head in the dryer at this point.)


Step 2: Transfer oil into a bowl or container that can take the heat. 

Step 3: Apply to hair in sections to ensure all of your hair is covered. I do this by hand but a brush used for hair dye works well too. (If you have oily hair, avoid putting oil on the scalp.)

Step 4: Put hair up and wrap in Saran Wrap.

Step 5: Blowdry hair through the cling wrap to reheat the oil, but do not make it uncomfortably warm!)

Step 6: Wrap towel from dryer around hair/plastic wrap to keep the heat in.
Step 6: Leave in for 15 minutes (for oily hair) and up to 30 minutes (for dry hair.)

Step 7: Wash hair to remove oil, but do not strip it completely. You can use conditioner as normal.
Step 8: Let hair air dry! Brush, but allow your hair to dry naturally because there is no sense in adding heat damage to freshly pampered hair!
