VO5 Nourishing Coconut Hot Oil 4x15ml

Product Information

Natural hair gurus often associate the quality of a hair product brand with the ingredients they use. For this reason, many naturals meticulously study hair product ingredient lists before deciding if a product is right for them. Oils –The sunflower seed, sweet almond, and mango oils present in VO5 products seal in the moisture that the hair needs to grow and thrive. The rosemary leaf and chamomile flower oils regenerate tired, dry strands and help with blood circulation in the scalp stimulating hair growth. These oils are present in almost all of VO5’s products. If you decide to try a hot oil treatment at home, use caution and, if using a store-bought product, follow the safety instructions.

Hot Oil Shower Works Deep Conditioning Treatment– This hot oil treatment will have you on your way to stronger, healthier hair in seconds, literally. It takes just one minute to complete this hot oil treatment, and it can be done while showering. The heat and steam from the shower will open up the hair shaft to receive those much-needed oils, vitamins, and proteins. Dimethicone – Dimethicone is a type of silicone used to make VO5 shampoos and conditioners smooth and silky to the touch. It can make hair feel glossy and smooth after just one wash. But dimethicone is a sinister ingredient because it coats hair strands causing significant build-up over time that can be difficult to remove. Start by wetting your hair down with a spray bottle, and then detangle and separate your hair into four sections. Mix together equal parts extra virgin olive, avocado, and coconut oils, while heating up a bowl of water in the microwave—you'll then place your cup of oil into the bowl of hot water to warm it up. Next, smooth the oil through your hair in four sections, using a detangling comb to distribute the treatment all the way through the ends. Twist your hair into a bun or two and wrap your hair in plastic wrap and a cloth-lined shower cap to trap the heat. After a few hours, wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner. The takeaway Oil generally works as a moisture sealant, but when it’s warm, all the enriching ingredients (i.e. fatty acids) find it easier to penetrate into the hair shaft. This infusion helps restore any lost moisture and leaves your hair feeling lovely and nourished. 2. It Strengthens HairYou'll need to pay careful attention to the temperature of your oil. Dr. Green says before you use a hot oil treatment, make sure it’s right for your hair type and that you understand the safety risks. Because the oil usually needs to be heated, you do run the risk of burning yourself if you don’t let it cool down enough before applying it to your hair and scalp. Once you think it might be cool enough to use, Dr. Green says to first test the temperature by applying a small amount of the oil to your wrist before spreading it all over. Last but not least! They’re a great year-round product to use. In the summer they’ll help remove the chlorine out of your strands, while in the winter, they’ll keep your mane looking on-point. Once you’ve washed your hair, microwave 3 to 6 tablespoons of the oil in a microwave-safe bowl for 10 seconds. At the end of the day though, Dr. Green says to keep in mind that "hair loss can seem overwhelming, which is why it is necessary to consult with a dermatologist who will assess your condition and explain all of your treatment options." She also adds that it's important to moisturize your dry scalp, depending on how often you wash your hair or if you frequently color your hair, because keeping your scalp healthy ensures that the hair follicles are hydrated and the breakage is minimized.

Using a Hot Oil Treatment

To protect your clothing, place a towel over your shoulders. If you prefer, you can apply the oil in the shower. However, this process can be very time-consuming. So to help you determine if VO5 is good for your hair, we have done the work for you. Review the list below to learn the good and bad ingredients in VO5 hair products. The Good Ingredients Artificial Fragrances – VO5 products smell super fragrant, sometimes overpowering. And that’s because the vast majority of their ingredients contain artificial fragrances. These are a no-no if you’re practicing mindful haircare. When manufacturers use “fragrances” in their products, they fail to disclose what they really use to create a product’s scent.

Then an emergency TLC session – in the form of a hot oil treatment – is all you need.
