For hair & scalp, warm the oil between fingers and mix with coconut oil or olive oil. For a quick all-over treatment, massage into scalp and ends for 5 to 10 minutes. For deeper conditioning, apply from roots to ends as a 30 minute mask or let absorb overnight. Follow with shampoo and conditioner as normal, making sure to rinse thoroughly. Repeat weekly for best results.
The recommended ratio of castor oil to coconut oil/olive oil for scalp treatment typically ranges from 1:2 to 1:3, depending on your hair type and the thickness of the oils:
- For Normal Hair: Use a 1:2 ratio (1 part castor oil to 2 parts coconut oil/olive oil). This ensures the castor oil is diluted enough for easy application while still benefiting from its nourishing properties.
- For Dry or Thick Hair: A 1:1 ratio may work well, as the hair and scalp can better absorb the heavier castor oil without feeling overly greasy.
- For Oily or Fine Hair: Use a 1:3 ratio (1 part castor oil to 3 parts coconut oil/olive oil). This minimizes the heaviness and prevents build-up while still providing hydration and stimulation.
For brows and lashes, apply using included spoolie. Care for your spoolie by cleaning it with mild soap and water after each use.
For skin and nails, directly apply desired amount and gently massage in until absorbed.
Pro Tip: A little goes a long way, so dilute or lightly apply as desired.
