Natural Hair Treatments

  • Olive oil, avocado oil and almond oil are great to give your hair a healthy boost. Leave it in like a treatment for 10 minutes.
  • Apple cider vinegar - leave it in for 10 minutes under a shower cap to reduce oil and hair feels squeaky clean after.
  • Cold water- rinse hair in cold water after your shower / bath. Your hair will have more body and shape.
  • TIP - Use a shower cap after applying your conditioner but before you wash it out. The heat helps it absorb better.
