All-Natural Deep Hair Conditioner

As I get older my hair seems to change 'texture' and it gets dry so EASY especially when I am coloring it to keep on top of the grey. Buying deep hair conditioning products or getting a conditioning treatment at a spa can totally add up, and most treatments contain unnecessary and often harsh chemicals that are not good for you or the environment.

As always dōTERRA to the rescue with a DIY recipe!  This homemade deep hair conditioner is easy to make and will leave your hair soft, smooth, and free of harsh chemicals. Because my hair is colored and extra dry as a result I love to do my weekly treatment overnight ~ I put it on before bed ~ gives me a little 'aromatherapy' while I sleep and the coconut and oils do their thing and than I wash it out in the morning when I shower! I also like to add a little Tea Tree oil to the recipe below because I work with young children and tea tree oil is a wonderful repellent of the 'little critters' who often take up home in school age children's heads!
