A natural approach to nourishing your hair

May 8, 2010

Like many women I'm a hair product fanatic, I've had a hard time finding the right deep conditioner for my hair type. Because of my daily flat iron use my hair has become increasingly dry and brittle. You would never guess that I have dry brittle hair well that's because of my easy in home remedy that will take dry brittle hair and turn it into soft and shiny hair.

This idea came from Greek Women dating back centuries ago, when Greek Women would wash their hair with water and then use olive oil as a deep conditioner, giving their hair a smooth shine and a soft, pleasant texture. A do it yourself in home treatment that will leave your hair healthy and shiny with a light and fresh scent.

You will need the following:
Your favorite organic essential oil such as organic grapefruit
Organic olive oil
A small glass mixing bowl

Step 1
Once you have washed your hair, let it air dry a bit so your hair is only slightly damp.

Step 2
In a small mixing bowl combine 3-tablespoons of organic olive oil and 1-3 drops of your favorite organic essential oil. Note: Use more or less olive oil depending on your hair type

Step 3
Blend and apply to clean damp hair. Wrap hair in a towel for ten minutes then style as usual.
