I bought a bottle of Extre Virgin Olive Oil from Walmart and bottle read "Keep in cool storage away from direct sunlight." Will it damage my hair if I use it when it's really hot outside b/c Atlanta does get pretty hot? I know this sounds kinda stupid but I just wanna make sure since I flat iron once a week and I will be using this oil daily. -------------

I used to keep all of my essential oils and bases in the fridge. But
then my parents complained cuz all the food started to taste of
flowers... Now I just keep them outside in my room, on a shelf (in the shade). I think its ok if you use it when it's hot, I live in the Middle East and it gets PRETTY hot!! Basically they tell you to keep it cool so that it keeps for longer. But if you're going to be wearing it on your hair and going out where its hot, it should be OK. Just don't use to much cuz it tends to get all over everywhere when its hot. :) Hope that helped! |

If you mean applying it to your hair and then going outdoors in sunlight. No, it won't damage your hair. However, you do want to use it sparingly bcuz it can be very oily if overdone. ~hth~ ------------- ~~  LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!~~

In case you wanted to know, Jasmine, the directions about storage are meant to keep the oil from oxidizing too quickly and going rancid. Once it's in your hair and being absorbed, though, you shouldn't have those issues.  ------------- Make every day you have count, before the time comes for you to count every day you have. |
