Hair Mask With Coconut Oil

You will need:
(i) Organic Coconut oil: 2-4 tablespoons (The more hair you have, more coconut oil you will need)

(ii) Essential oil: 5-8 drops (optional – Rosemary or ylang ylang or any other essential oil of your choice)

Method:
(i) Combine the coconut oil with essential oil (if using).

(ii) Massage into your hair. Give attention to the hair and aim to minimalize the amount of the oil that goes directly on the scalp. Your scalp produces sebum. It’s an oily stuff that moisturizes your scalp. So, in case you have oily scalp or hair, your scalp possibly produces a lot of sebum and thus doesn’t require additional moisture directly.

(iii) Let the oil sit on your hair for 30-60 minutes.

(iv) Wash out (see below for tips).

Coconut oil is a great moisturizer for dull, dry, damaged hair, but it can be tricky to apply the right amount on your tresses. Too little, and you won’t get the shine that you want; too much, and your hair could end up looking heavy and oily. In case you’ve inadvertently put too much coconut oil in hair, follow these steps to get coconut oil out from hair without any fuss.

You may need to shampoo more than once, depending on how much coconut oil you’ve accidentally used and how fine and thin your hair is.

(iv) After getting rid of coconut oil from your hair, your roots would not require to be conditioned; the coconut oil would have hydrated them enough.
