Think <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/health\/beach-health-benefits\/\">the beach<\/a> or swimming in a<a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/health\/minimize-swimming-chlorine-exposure\/\"> chlorine laden pool<\/a>. Harsh hair care products can also damage hair, leading to frizz, breakage, and hair loss. This DIY hair oil treatment helps improve scalp health for healthier, natural hair.<\/p>\n<p>I love that it\u2019s inexpensive and an easy way to get healthy hair no matter your hair type. I even used this hair care routine on my then 4 year old daughter years ago to help make her hair more manageable. Not only did it help make her hair easier to brush, but it also didn\u2019t irritate her tender head. This recipe is so simple it\u2019s hard to even call it a recipe, but I just had to share since it works so well!<\/p>\n<p>It will leave your hair oily, so be sure to shampoo and rinse it out once you\u2019re done!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-diy-hair-oil\">DIY Hair Oil<\/h2>\n<p>I have another DIY<a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/remedies\/natural-hair-growth-oil\/\"> hair growth oil recipe <\/a>that works as a hair conditioner which I keep in a dropper bottle. That rosemary hair growth oil is different from this DIY hair oil, which is more of a deep conditioning treatment. Although both are great for thicker hair and scalp health!<\/p>\n<p>This hair treatment helps improve dry hair with natural oils and has become a regular staple in my hair care routine. It helps reduce hair fall, nourishes hair follicles, and can even help improve dandruff. This DIY hair oil features magnesium rich Epsom salts and conditioning olive oil and coconut oil for a healthy shine.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve also included raw honey for it\u2019s unique ability to help hair. Raw honey promotes skin cell growth, including on the scalp and moisturizes as it adds nutrients to the hair and scalp. Honey is also naturally antimicrobial and antifungal and can be used as a <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/remedies\/dandruff-remedies\/\">dandruff treatment.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how to make it!<\/p>\n<div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-422408\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"422408\" data-servings=\"1\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-compact-howto\">\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">DIY Hair Oil Recipe<\/h2>\n<p>This easy and inexpensive homemade hair oil naturally improves dry, brittle, damaged hair.

Some people find coconut oil makes their hair or skin dry though. Other carrier oils will also work well. Try sweet almond oil instead of olive oil if you need something a little less oily. Avocado oil is also very nourishing for hair and a great option. <\/p>\n<p>Adding a <a href=\"https:\/\/wellnessmama.com\/remedies\/jojoba-oil\/\">little jojoba oil<\/a>, castor oil, or argan oil to the mix are also a great way to treat your scalp! You can even add some antioxidant vitamin E. There\u2019s some evidence that vitamin E can assist with hair growth and a healthier scalp.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Optional Essential Oils<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s not totally necessary, but you can <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pntrs.com\/t\/TUJGR0ZGSEJGRktJTkpCRkxNSUlI?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.planttherapy.com%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">add some essential oils <\/a>to your DIY hair oil for more benefits. You only need a few drops as they\u2019re highly concentrated. Be sure to properly dilute and avoid using on young children.<\/p>\n<p>Try a few drops of rosemary essential oil for hair growth. Cedarwood and lavender essential oil also have proven hair growth benefits. Tea tree oil is good for dandruff and peppermint essential oil has a cooling, invigorating effect. Just don\u2019t get it into your eyes!<\/p>\n<p>This DIY hair oil is a great way to give your hair a little extra love and attention!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you ever used oil on your hair?
