There’s no excuse for dry, unmanageable hair!

If you have dry, unmanageable hair, I have the perfect recipe to counteract that! Now, I’m a big fan of hot oil treatments. I make my own, which is infused with herbs and essential oils. However, for your day-to-day routine, you’d probably enjoy something quicker. Here is a simple recipe that you can start using right away.

What you will need:

  • Jojoba Oil
  • Extra Virgin Unrefined Coconut Oil
  • Aloe Vera Gel

You can buy all three at Trader Joe’s or at Mountain Rose Herbs.

  1. Depending on the length of your hair, mix 3 equal parts of each ingredient.
  2. Apply the mixture to your scalp and hair.
  3. Leave it on overnight.
  4. Shower in the morning.

The good thing about the aloe vera gel is that its moisturizing, and it keeps your hair from getting your pillowcase oily. Coconut oil is very moisturizing, and it will curb dandruff if you have any. Jojoba oil (it’s really a wax) is similar to your own scalp’s sebum (natural oil), and it will leave your hair shiny. Your hair will feel softer and more manageable if you continue to do this.
