Warm the Oil: Gently warm a small amount of oil (1-2 tablespoons) in a bowl
Microwave: Heat the oil in a microwave-safe bowl for about 10-15 seconds. You want it to be warm, not scalding hot.
Stovetop: Pour the oil into a small pan and heat it on low heat for a minute or two. Keep an eye on it to prevent it from getting too hot.
Hot Water Bath: Place the oil in a heat-safe container and then place that container in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes. This gently warms the oil.
Apply to Scalp and Hair: Massage the oil into your scalp for a few minutes, then work it through the rest of your hair, focusing on the ends.
Wrap Your Hair: Wrap your hair in a towel or use a shower cap to protect your pillow and help the oil absorb.
Leave Overnight: Allow the oil to sit in your hair overnight.
Wash in the Morning: In the morning, wash your hair thoroughly with shampoo and conditioner to remove the oil. You might need to shampoo twice.
