Good-bye Split Ends DIY Treatment


The ends of our hair are the oldest and most fragile parts of our strands. They need love and moisture. When styling, avoid too much heat on your ends, tuck your ends away as often as possible, and remember to give them extra conditioner during your treatment process.
  
I have a homemade treatment that will help nourish those old ends and give them an extra pep.
1 cup Shea butter
5 tbsp EVOO
½ tsp Vitamin E oil
4 Drops of Rosemary Essential Oil

Shea Butter is a think emollient and when used over time it will prevent from your ends splitting. It almost acts like a glue for your ends.

Directions:
Slowly warm up the Shea butter in your microwave until it becomes almost liquid. Stir in the olive oil and essential oil and set aside and let it cool for 15-30 minutes. Don’t let the mixture harden again. Once it it as it’s almost solid state vigorously whisk in the vitamin E oil. 

Apply to ends and rest of hair strands and let it sit in hair for 15 minutes, under Heated cap. If you don’t have a heated cap, cover your hair in plastic and then wrap your head in a towel. You can also use this mixture on dry hair as a moisturizer
