I *Heart* Olive Oil!

This weekend I did a deep conditioning/pre-poo treatment with EVOO (extra virgin olive oil). I just saturated my hair with the oil, covered it with a disposable plastic shower cap and a towel, and let it sit for an hour.

I then got in the shower, rinsed it out, shampooed, and conditioned. After adding my leave-in (Qhemet Burdock Root Butter Cream :love:), I rollerset my hair. Oh my goodness! My hair is so soft! I still can't stop touching it days later.

I think I'm going to implement this into my normal regimen!

P.S. Be careful when rinsing out the oil in the shower because it makes the shower floor very slippery!

I read about other ladies using olive oil as a treatment here, so I want to say thank you! I think I will start adding a little olive oil to my regular shampoo and conditioner as well!

Maybe I've been doing it all wrong but after I put on my deep conditioner I pour warm olive on my head, plastic cap and sit under the dryer for like 20 minutes....my hair feels good but maybe I do the olive oil before the washing and all that. Thanks!!:wallbash:

That's not wrong, I use it like that also. It has many uses. I even mix some into my conditioner sometimes. I use it to oil my scalp before a relaxer also.

Thanks ceebee3!!! I know I've been on LHCF for a while but I thought I was doing something wrong. Cool beans I'll continue on with my love for olive oil. :grin: I start using it on my scalp as well.

EVOO is my LOVE. :love4::love4::love4:

You guys have been missing out if you don't incorporate this weekly or make it a staple product. This has helped turned my hair around for the better. Healthy, soft, and strong. I love it!!

Olive oil works great as a pre poo/deep conditioner. My hair was really dry and frizzy and I don't want to cut it. I conditioner washed my hair. Then I applied Infusium leave-in conditioner and sealed it with EVOO and Olive miracle anti-breakage formula, and put it in a wet bun. After a half a day I took the bun out and put it in a braid and slept with the braid. In the morning I took the braid out. My hair was greasy so that's why it's works well as a pre poo. My hair must have soaked up what it needed because that rough dry feeling was gone even after the shampoo. I'm now doing my wash and go. I do those at least once a week so my hair isn't constantly in a bun.
