Using olive oil to nourish hair
Pure olive oil
Rub olive oil on your hands and use your hands to apply it, evenly smoothing it onto your hair from roots to tips. Note that the application and smoothing motions should be gentle to allow the olive oil to penetrate deeply. Then wash your hair with shampoo that is appropriate for your hair type. Do not use a high-temperature blow dryer to dry your hair.
Olive oil + shampoo
You can combine olive oil with shampoo in a ratio of 250ml shampoo + 30ml olive oil. Mix the 2 ingredients thoroughly and then pour them into a bottle for gradual use.
Massage the scalp and hair with your hands to avoid damaging the scalp and causing hair loss. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Olive oil + coconut oil
Combining with coconut oil will provide a mixture that contains many antioxidants and essential vitamins to help improve weak hair.
Use two products in a 1:1 ratio. Wet the hair and then apply the mixture to the hair. Use your fingertips to massage the scalp and gently smooth from roots to tips so that the mixture is applied evenly and deeply absorbed. Use a cap/towel to cover and wrap your hair for about 30 minutes to allow the精华to penetrate deeply into the hair.
Olive oil + avocado
Avocado contains a high nutritional content. Both of these ingredients contain fatty acids that are good for the scalp. Peel and puree a ripe avocado weighing about 200g. Mix thoroughly with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Apply the mixture evenly to the hair, from the roots to the tips. Cover the hair with a towel/cap and wrap it for about 30 minutes. Wash with shampoo that is appropriate for your hair type.
