Ingredients for homemade hot oil treatments vary quite a bit. The base can be made from olive, canola vegetable, or other oil. You can add other natural ingredients that strike your fancy, to give a pleasant scent and increase the effectiveness of the treatment.
Certain essential oils address particular hair and scalp issues. Essential oils can be found at your local health food store or alternative pharmacy.
Depending on your needs, you might want to use the hot oil treatment only on the ends of your hair. Breakage occurs there most commonly, and using oil on all your hair could leave you with an oily scalp. However, if you suffer from dry scalp conditions such as dandruff, a full-head hot oil treatment can be a luxurious way to ease your symptoms.
