Hot oil treatment is most beneficial in black hair care. Due to the dry condition of African hair types that are prone to breakage, hair treatment using oils like boiling oil can help alleviate problems relating with dry scalp and nourish the hair. Here are the steps that you can follow during the hair treatment using it.
You can buy hot oil treatment packages from beauty supply stores or make your own. Make sure that you have your hair washed and towel dried before you start with the process. Generally, with hot oil products purchased from the store, you will need to heat the product according to the instructions given on the package.
As you have completed heating the product, you will now apply the warm oil onto your hair. Be very careful as the oil may be too hot for your scalp. To avoid burning your scalp, just let the product sit and cool off for a while before you use it. Then, you will apply the oil onto the hair, and massage your scalp at the same time.
Take the time to apply this oil throughout your hair, checking that you have covered all of your hair with the product. The best way to do this is by utilizing a small squeeze bottle to help you get all over your hair. You do not have to get your hair overly greasy, but slightly oily will just do the trick.
Once you get your hair all soaked in hot oil, wrap all of your hair in a shower cap. If you have a bonnet-type hair dryer at home, you can sit under it to heat up the oil in your hair. Let the oil do its work by leaving it on your hair for about 15 minutes. You can even have a relaxing treatment, by taking a warm bath while you let the warm oil penetrate into the hair.
Rinse the oil gently when you are done. Black hair care using oil treatment at home is just as effective as the treatments offered by the professionals.
