    Hey there 😉
    Very informative & helpful article !

    Prior to reading Your article, I didn’t that olive oil is so healthy & beneficial to person’s hair in so many ways!
    It was very interesting learning about olive oil’s health benefits & I really stoked to try out this product!
    I find the part about antioxidant properties to be very exciting, especially the whole thing that it helps to fight premature aging & grey hair.

    Also, the whole fact that Olive oil can help keep Your hair healthy & repair damaged hair is so awesome! The part about olive oil containing vitamin B & mixing it with some lemon juice to prevent dandruff was also very useful information.

    Does it work the same way with men’s hair? & Can I use it on facial hair (my beard) to make facial hair less razor sharp but instead make it more soft?

    Keep up the good work 😉
    Cheers,
    Evald

      Hello Evald, of course you can use it on men’s hair.  For your beard you can use Olive oil the same way.  It will help to condition your beard and promote a healthy growing beard.

    Olive oil is awesome for hair.  But, you want to make sure it’s virgin organic olive oil!  I read something the other day that stated nearly over 60% of olive oil is adulterated?  Have you ever heard that?

    Are there any olive oil brand that you don’t like?

    Have you ever heard of honey for hair, too?  Also, coconut oil is good for the hair, too.

    Do you happen to have any recipes for homemade shampoos with olive oil?  Also, I like to mix it with lavender and peppermint essential oil.  It’s really great for your hair, too.

      Hi Garen, there is good and bad Olive Oil out there.  Virgin Olive oil is really the best, but I have used pumice as well in the bath and for my hair and got pretty good results.

      The Olive oil I use in my products comes from Italy.  I have had the same supplier for along time.  A few years back a fellow soap maker talked me into try Olive oil from another supplier and I had to send it back because when I received it I noted that is was 85% Canola oil and 15% Olive oil.  

      If you are looking for a good organic virgin olive oil I would suggest Argali Superior Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

      I use this one for all my cooking.

    Tes I have never thought to use olive oil for my skin. I’m aware of the benefits for your skin as you mentioned but not hair. But I’m grateful that you have left a step by step guide on how to go about the monthly deep cleanse with olive oil. This is very helpful.

    I’m always open to natural alternatives particularly products that are observed through our skin. I know my hair is in need of a deep clease, I have a day at home today, so I am going to give it a go!

    Well the first thing I am going to say is kudos.  I know I wouldn’t have time to make my own soap.  However taking care of our hair is very important to my wife and myself.  This article says a lot in not so many words.  I don’t know if I can talk here into putting oil in her hair, however I will certainly try it and if it works she will notice and jump all over it.  Thanks for the great info that I know I will try.

      Thanks Dale, it is time consuming making your own soap but well worth it.  You might have to give it a try.  Using Olive oil on the hair is so great.  I’m sure if your wife tried it once and saw the outcome she would use it again.  Lots of people use the hot oil treatment.  I think this is better than that.

    Thank you for this reminder! I remember doing this in my younger years. This was alongside trying to lighten my hair naturally, so I would be using lemon juice and sit out in the sun. This never worked though… 

    Anyway, the olive oil I tried and I remember leaving it in over night as well, just with a towel wrapped around my head and, to protect my pillow, another towel around my pillow. It really does work well!

      Thanks for telling us about your experience with Olive oil.  That’s funny about the lemon juice, I have dark hair and did the same thing when I was younger lol…..trying for blonde it never did work either.

    Your post is very helpful, I didn’t know how useful was Olive oil for hair, you said also to prevent gray hair, and what about the ones that already have gray hair? What about the smell?

    When you end the treatment do you use the shampoo as usual? and conditioner? You also use it on your skin, I am looking for something to end with my black spots, I have them in arms and hands, have you heard something good to treat it?

    Thank you for sharing your experience with Olive oil 🙂

      Hi Maria, I don’t think Olive oil can help the gray that’s already there.  The smell of Olive oil is very minimal and not bad smelling at all so I don’t think our would have a problem with that.

      When I treat my hair with Olive oil I do shampoo as usual after.  I have not looked into Olive oil helping dark spots on your skin, not knowing what they are I really can’t comment on that.  I do know that Olive oil is very good for your skin and helpful in keeping it moisturized which in turn help to keep your skin healthy and young looking.
