Olive and essential oil hair treatment.

Grab some extra virgin olive oil, pour a little in a cosmetic jar, bowl, or the lid to your latest microwave dinner–whatever’s handy. Add a few drops of lavender essential oil and a few drops of rosemary. Work some into the ends of your hair first, then the crown, brushing down with your fingers. Let sit for at least half an hour, preferably with a plastic grocery bag over your hair. If your hair’s pretty thick, you might not need to wash right away–that is, if you don’t mind smelling like an Italian kitchen–I’m sure don’t, and neither does my boyfriend, who prefers it to the smell of fruity perfume!
