It also prolongs the freshness of the strands, thanks to which they do not get greasy so quickly. Remember not to put it in the sun, because it will lose its properties. Field mint oil has a similar effect, so you can use them interchangeably. Add a few drops to shampoo and you will feel a pleasant cooling and refreshing effect while washing your hair.

Gently massage into the scalp (without rubbing vigorously). Leave on hair for 30 minutes. After this time, wash off with warm water and wash your hair with shampoo. The treatment can be repeated 2 times a week. Do an allergy test on your hands beforehand.

Transfer to a pot, add 3/4 cup of olive oil and heat for half an hour. Cool and strain the mixture. Pour into a jar and leave in a shaded place for 14 days. Shake the jar once a day. After 2 weeks, the mixture will be ready for use.
