How to apply hair oils and to wash them out?

To apply hair oils and properly wash them out, follow these steps:

Applying Hair Oils:

1. Heat the oil gently to 40°C (104°F) to ensure it's warm when you apply it.
2. Use the oil sparingly; for medium-length curls, about 5 mg is sufficient.
3. Apply the oil to damp or dry hair, depending on the oil's instruction or your hair's needs.
4. If using a hair mask, mix other ingredients, such as essential oils or conditioner, before adding the oil.
5. Leave the oil in your hair for the recommended time, which varies with different oils and hair needs. Use a plastic cap or towel to maintain heat and enhance absorption.

Washing Out Hair Oils:

1. Wait enough time before shampooing your hair, as leaving the oil in for a longer duration generally makes it easier to wash out.
2. Use a clarifying shampoo, as ordinary shampoos might not be strong enough to remove oil completely.
3. Massage the shampoo well into your scalp and hair, and shampoo at least twice to ensure thorough cleansing.
4. If you've used heavy oils or have an oily scalp, you may consider using additional home remedies like apple cider vinegar or baking soda rinses to help remove oil and residues.

Remember, oil treatments are best left on the hair for at least an hour before you wash it out, and in some cases overnight for better results. It's crucial to use a clarifying shampoo to get the most out of oil treatments without over-stripping the hair and causing damage.
