Have a hair fall problem? An olive oil treatment is the solution. If you've suddenly noticed hair fall, you can use olive oil to control it. The oil has moisturising properties as well as penetrates deep into the hair shaft which helps in hair growth. The oil isn't very sticky so it only needs one wash to get it off and does not have a strong smell as well. Here are some more beauty benefits of olive oil.

How to use:

  • Warm some extra virgin olive oil.
  • Dip a cotton ball into it and massage it into your scalp.
  • Later apply on the tips as well.
  • Comb your hair once to spread the oil uniformly all over.
  • Keep it on for 30 minutes and then wash using a mild shampoo.

A regular treatment of olive oil massage twice a week will help strengthen your hair right from the root to tip and help prevent further hair loss. Here are some more hair oils for hair growth.
