Application Tips
Start with clean and dry hands. Pump 1-2 drops into the center of you palm and gently rub hands together. Then use both hands to massage the oil into a section of your hair. When it feels that the oil has been absorbed, put another 1-2 and massage into another section of your hair. Repeat until all hair is treated.
Don’t overdo it. A little dot does a lot. Try the minimum amount first and check the results. You can always add more.
