Oils I like to deep condition with :)

   I really need to start deep conditioning more often!  I have been slacking off with it...sigh.... Whenever I do decide to deep condition, I have really kept it simple :)  Deep conditioning helps keep my scalp healthy.  I tend to have an itchy scalp especially during the winter.  I also have a sensitive scalp that gets irritated if I don't wash it after sweating etc.  So deep conditioning with oils help me out soo much :D  First, I oil my scalp on dry hair, and use a cheap conditioner(Suave Naturals) on my length :)  After that, I either hang out for a few hours while wearing a shower cap, or sit under the dryer for 20-30 minutes.  That's it lol!  Here is a little info on the oils I like to use :)

Castor Oil

   Castor oil can be a little intimidating when considering to use it on your hair lol.  It is VERY thick and sticky...it seems like it would cause nothing but problems and take forever to remove from the hair!  But this oil is actually amazing :D  It has soo many great benefits, that it is hard not to try!  

Benefits include:

* Detoxifies/cleans scalp
  
* Stimulates scalp
  
* Helps with itchy scalp

*Can help thicken hair

*Softens the hair

* Prevents hairloss

Olive Oil

   Olive oil is still reigning champion for my fro!  I love how it helps seal in moisture and adds shine to my hair :)  I've recently added this oil to my deep conditioning regimen to help thin out the castor oil lol.  With all of the wonderful things it is capable of, I'm not sure why I haven't added it in sooner!  

Some Benefits include: 
* Penetrating hair shaft for deep conditioning

* Helps prevent dandruff

* Smooths hair

* Reduces frizz

*Can improve hair elasticity and strength

*Adds shine

Peppermint Oil

    After much research, I chose peppermint oil to use for my itchy scalp.  Since I cowash frequently my scalp is clean but I still occasionally get a dry scalp...especially during the winter lol.  Peppermint oil not only smells awesome, it  is very soothing! It really calms the itching and the tingling "effects" last long after it is washed out.   I really like it :)   

Benefits include:

* Smells awesome! lol

* Tingles and cools the scalp

* Helps with itching

* Stimulates scalp

*Treatment for hairloss

  Some other oils I'm interested in are avocado oil, jojoba oil and coconut oil :)  They have great benefits for the hair and scalp so I will definitely be trying these out!  LOL
