Throw Away Your Hair Products
I love Mother Nature, how she takes care of us better than “products” from a lab. I’m also a minimalist, appreciating one-ingredient wonders that do the work of many.
That’s what led me to turn to a common household item to contain my unruly hair. But better hair was just the beginning of the benefits…
I liked how this ingredient felt, how there was no chemical residue, and how it kept my hair from going into full-on mop mode.
After some years using it, I also noticed I had less gray hair than my brother who is two years younger than me.
Hmm, I thought. Could it be?
Here’s what I use, and how do I use it…
I’m talking about a natural substance you probably already have in your kitchen: olive oil.
After I shower, I dry my hair a bit with a towel but leave it damp. Then, I pour a few drops in one hand, and rub my hands together to warm up the oil. After that, I simply smooth my fingers through my damp hair, following up with a quick brush.
