I have become pretty faithful with doing hot oil treatments. I use olive oil or Vatika oil. I use a small spray bottle that I get from Walmart and spray my hair down the entire length in four sections. This gives me a light but through coating to my hair. I massage my scalp for a minute or so. I wrap my head with a warm moist hand towel, cover it with a plastic cap and put on my heating cap. After 15 to 20 minutes, I wash it out and condition my hair.
