I love using oils on my hair. There are many ways to incorporate different oils into your natural hair care routine and I’ve been asked on occasion ways that I use them. Today I’m sharing 5 ways you can use oil on your natural hair:
- Cocktailing – This is just mixing an oil with any other product, especially conditioners and shampoos
- Oil Deep treatment – Saturate your curls with your oil of choice and let it set in your hair with a shower cap for at least 10 to 15 minutes
- Use during your pre-poo to detangle your hair -You do this before shampooing to prevent excess loss of natural oils and damage while washing
- Add shine after styling – I like to warm up the oil in my palms and then distribute it evenly through my hair
- Seal in moisture – This is when you coat your hair with oil after you have applied your moisturizer or leave-in conditioner

Really great tips. I like to cocktail products for my hair, I don’t have curly hair but it tangles easily.

I’ve never heard the term “cocktailing” used in regards to hair products, but I’m totally going to start using it whenever possible! Your hair looks fab, btw!
