    I've read that you can wet a towel and heat it in the microwave. Sometimes I warm a towel on a heating battery and use it. Or else I use saran wrap and a beanie/toque on top, so it effectively keeps the body heat and makes it warm. Something I did also is use the good ole blow dried, but to blow on the towel on my head, it warms it up nicely as well.
    I also won't recommend using anything alkaine to open up the cuticles because I think it's not really good to mess with the pH of your hair and scalp. If you can use heat instead, then do it.

    Soft hair that is nice to sit on - now I'm bragging!

    Oh - and a heating pad. I've put treatment on hair, coiled on head, shower cap over that, t-shirt over that, heating pad on low. Then I watched a movie before rinsing out. Very good results.
