I want to use extra virging olive oil in my hair, does it matter which brand?

Question

i have the silican brand for a mediterranean diet.

Answer 1

I always use what ever is on sale....So I guess no it doesnt matter what kind it is :o)

Answer 2

I have never done this but I"d say in general if it is good enough to eat it is good enough to put on your hair. Of course a cold pressed oil would be better because the solvent-extracted type (most) might have some residue of solvent however small. But if you are eating it it sure doesn't pay to worry about putting it on your hair.

Answer 3

Once I tried olive oil and also once the mayo treatment. What a gross disaster, it coated the hair and made it dull.

Just use good hair products - find them at a good salon near your home & get professional advice.

For damaged hair, I hear the L'anza treatments or Joico are very good.

Answer 4

Any oil will be hard to remove. You will further dry your hair when you remove the oil. Until it's gone your hair will look greasy and nasty. And your scalp will break out.

Ahh! the wifes tale continues with yet another generation.

Answer 5

Hi there. Brand name shouldn't make a difference. Try to use a dime sized amount so that you don't over kill the smell. Have a great week.
