Sorry for answering you question so late renee- i just noticed it- but to be honest i really don't remember- it was a year or so ago- but i do remember being thoroughly satisfied with the product and i would purchase from them again.

P.S. You can get the sweet almond oil scented with lavender or unscented.

 

how much was the shipping after it was calculated? did u get the scented or unscented one?

Hot oil treatments are great.  They really do make a big difference in my hair (add back moisture and shine).  I find that when I do regularly, I have less breakage.  Unfortunately, as much of a product junkie as I am, I just don't have the time to do hair treatments as much as I should.

Most of the health food stores in my area carry essential oils.  If you have one in your area you may want to try there.  Extra Virgin olive oil is great and readily available in most markets.  There is also L'Occitane Olive Hair Care Oil for $18 (4.3oz).  Ingredients are Olive Oil, grape seed oil, jojoba oil and wheat germ oil. 

You can probably order these online or find locally and make your own concoction for far less.

I have been doing them about twice a month.

Honey I've heard that avocado is excellent for the hair. I think I may try that..how do you smash it up and how long do you let it stay on your hair?

I don't do hot oil by itself. I usually use EVOO with carrot oil and conditioner or I mash up an avocado with the oil. It seems for my hair, oil alone makes it hard and dry.

I usually do hot oil treatments once a month in the summer and twice a month in the winter. I live in Atlanta so I don't do them that much b/c we have warm weather, but in the NOrth the air is usually very cold which causes hair to dry out from the wind and cold temperatures.

A hot oil treatment adds moisture to your hair. I use EVOO when I do mine.

CaramelDiva what are some of the benefits of the Sweet Almond Oil? Do you use it only for hot oil treatments?
