When I use it I do as follows:
- use extra virgin olive oil
- heat it in a coffee mug in the microwave so that it's warm ....not hot ( if it's hot it will burn your scalp.....if you heat it too much, let it sit & cool until it's cooled down enough that you can stick you finger in it for 5 seconds)
- use it on dry hair ( so the oil can seep in better)
take a comb & dip in in the mug & comb it through your hair in sections...making sure to get the ends good
- if there's any left over after your hair is fully saturated, I just pour the rest over my head (carefully)
-put a shower cap over your head & jump in the shower & wash up ( the heat/steam of the shower will help it get in the hair better....plus, it helps with saving time :) )
- after 5 minutes in the shower, take the cap off & just pour shampoo on your head BEFORE putting any water on it. ( you may need to shampoo it a couple of times in order to get the stuff out )
- you don't need to use a conditioner afterwards ( b/c the oil would have made your hair soft already)
Oh, when you are in the shower, just be careful that you don't slip on the oil that comes off your hair .....I've done that a couple of times *lol* (&, make sure you just wash it all down the drai so whomever is next in the shower doesn't slip either)

Olive oil is a good moisturizer for the hair, but olive oil at very high temperature gets damaged therefore resulting in little to no benefit unless u just like the taste of deep fried... Just kidin. So my suggestion is heating it on the stove for a few seconds. I put some extra virgin organic olive oil in a spoon and place it over the flame for a few seconds enough to get it slightly warm. IMHO, warming in a microwave will damage the oil. Coconut oil on the other hand handles heat very well.
