I just put some olive oil in my hair...

I have red a lot of good things about EVOO in here, so I wanted to give it a try. Allready my hair feels a lot softer than when I coconut oil it (it gets the more "dry" feeling) It seems like the olive oil is more ritch and moisturizing in a way.

What are your experience with EVOO?

[littlenvy]

I agree.
My hair doesn't always like coconut oil (the bleach parts hate it) but it LOVES EVOO. Especially if I keep it overnight.

I can never get olive oil out of my hair.

Have you tried rinsing your hair with warm water in the shower,massaging in some cone-free conditioner, covering for at least 10 minutes, rinse and condition again? Conditioner is far superior to shampoo when removing the oils from the hair.

Lots of people do the conditioner massage/soak, followed by a shampoo and then condition. I use hair washing herbs to remove my oils. YMMV.

Evoo Is my hair's favourite! It gets rid of the crunchiness on my ends, but it's effects only last a few days even if I use coconut oil.

It's something I like to do at least once a week.

Yes, I've tried this. It gets a lot more out but my hair overall feels like a grease ball.

My hair loves EVOO too! It really helps my dry and crunchy ends. I've tried other oils, like coconut, jojoba, grapeseed etc. But they all seem too "light" and makes my hair feel dry and sticky (They are great for my skin though!). But EVOO gives my hair that soft, silky and rich feeling.
And one more positive thing is that the more I oil my hair, the more oil it can handle! When I just started oiling, the oils would creep up my hairs and give me greasy scalp on the same day, and I could only use the tiniest drop to not feel lika a total grease ball. But now, I can oil my hair every/ every other day and still go 3-4 days between washes

how much do you use?

I use a lot. Soak my whole head in it and keep it overnight.

Coconut oil is my scalp favourite, but on the length and the dry ends EVOO seems perfect for my hair! Coconut oilings usually makes my ends separate and collect lint and dust But it gives my hair great shine that lasts. EVOO also gives my hair loads of shine, and seems like it is making my hair really soft too. (And no lint and dust so far!)

I have just applied it very lightly, mainly on the lower ends of my hair (that part has been chemically dyed about a million times, and even highlighted with bleach, so it it dry as Sahara) I just made my hands shiny with the oil a coupple of times, and hand coumbed my hair well. It seemed like the oil just got sucked rught in, because my hair does not feel greasy now, a coupple of hours later. I plan to keep it overnight, and wash it tomorrow. I`ll give you a report then

I also used EVOO to clean my face, and my face feels like velvet now, just wanted to mention it (I usually wear coconut oil on my skin, works great!)
