Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil Is Great For Natural Hairstyles

By Kathleen Evans


These days, having a full mane of curls seems to be the fashion trend that is not going away anytime soon. For many, this is one of the easiest hairdos to care for, as well as being economical. However, what a lot of wearers may not realize is that it is not necessary to buy costly hair care brands that are sold mostly at beauty supply retailers. It is very easy to have a more frugal routine by using real ingredients like aloe vera and organic extra virgin olive oil.

What consumers should look for is the purity, as some manufacturers may stretch the truth when it comes to placing labels on products. Experts say to look at the color, which is a golden green color. If in doubt, it may help to sample and look a distinct taste not typically found in oils. Most that are processed with refined or canola oils have little taste and are light in color.

Most nut and olive oils make a nice heated conditioning treatment but not every oil are the same. Using oil instead of an over the counter product is much better for treating dryness for curly types of hair. One reason is that follicles may need opening and warm oil does this better than a cold product that contains other ingredients.

The best way to test hair for natural moisture is to use the float test. Place a strand in a clear cup of water and see whether it floats or sinks to the bottom. Experts say that if the strand remains floating after a few minutes, it is not porous enough to benefit from most over the counter products. Another way to tell is by running fingers through different sections of hair to see if ends, or other areas, change in texture.

The minimal processing of this oil helps to retain all of its pure properties. This is why less expensive oil types may require adding extra ingredients but adding this is really a waste. By heating enough of the virgin oil for a single application and letting it sit for at least a half hour, coarse hair will be soft to the touch.

Since some countries have strict standards when it comes to labeling something as organic, it helps to do to a little legwork. Online review sites can be helpful, as well as natural health forums or blogs run by reputable consumer figures. Whatever the choice, a wise tip would be to not be lured by low prices because the product may not be what it seems.

For those who are ready to convert to healthier living, change is easier than one may think. Going with pure products is most likely to bring the most positive results when it comes to improving overall health. If a person wants to convert to olive oil for everyday cooking, it is best that they read up on heat levels and find out which recipes can reverse conditions like diabetes, inflammation, or weight loss.

Hair care should not be costly since everyone deserves to have a mane that is clean and a scalp that is not overly dry with the use of commercial shampoo. Not everyone has the money or time to visit a salon regularly but there are many things they can do that cost just a little bit of money. Any hair texture or type can be easy to manage when it is properly moisturized.
