Rinse-out oil (ROO) / Oil Rinse

**Ambrielle** · January 25th, 2015, 03:33 PM

i have tried this last summer and it worked fairly well for me

i used almond oil. But my method may be a little different? hmm not sure. What i did is i wet my hair and washed it with either sulfate free shampoo or cone free conditioner (whatever i was using at the time) first, then applied the oil, then rinsed it out and applied a heavier/ coney conditioner.

Jojoba oil does not work with my hair i got lots of broken pieces whenever i used it straight (it acts like a protein treatment on my hair) but i would like to try other oils such as my beloved camellia oil and MO.

Is it by Garnier or L'oreal by any chance. Most likely it is a serum (with silicones) rather than a pure oil.

These are the ingredients:

Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil*, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil*, Isoamyl Cocoate*, Coco-Caprylate*, Fragrance, Ethylhexyl Palmitate*, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter Extract*, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil*, Hibiscus Sabdariffa Seed Oil*, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil*, Tocopherol*, Palmitoyl Grape Seed Extract*, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit/Leaf/Stem Extract*, Citric Acid*, Benzyl Salicylate, Linalool, Hydroxycitronellal, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Limonene, Citronellol, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Geraniol. 2008/107/084. *Plant origin.

Seems okay enough... although it's not completely natural. But then again, neither is mineral oil.

Yep, you just have to give it what it wants. No rhyme or reason!

I actually tried this method last year and found it to be too many steps for me in the shower, so I just add the same amount of oil to my last conditioner and only apply from the shoulders down. I'm loving what adding oil to my conditioner is doing, and it takes me so much less time than sealing my hair afterward (a la the LOC method).

Even with a full tablespoon in less than 1/4 cup of conditioner my hair doesn't end up greasy, just a bit oiled. In fact, my damaged ends don't even look oiled, just the healthy hair. (I assume that's because the damaged hair has more surface 'pits, cracks, etc' for the oil to go into, instead of just sitting on the surface)

A full tablespoon... Gives me something to think about. Here *I* am with my few drops of MO.

Right? TBH I was really surprised this last wash that I didn't end up with clumpy greasy hair. It looks great after a night of absorbing/rubbing off, now. To me it doesn't even look oiled anymore.
But hey, I bet your locks are a LOT less thirsty than my own, so a tablespoon of oil could be a nightmare for you!
