Shampoo your hair once or twice to rinse out all of the oil. When your hair dries, you’ll be impressed with the results. Coconut oil is solid at room temperature, so you may have to warm it up before applying. Use unrefined coconut oil, rather than refined coconut oil, since it is better suited to cosmetic use.

If desired, add 2-3 drops of lemon oil to the egg whites for a clean, refreshing scent. Don’t use hot water to rinse the egg whites out of your hair, or they may cook!

There’s no need to apply as much oil to the roots area, since this part of your hair will naturally get oily faster than the rest of your hair.

Round brushes will help smooth and straighten fine and medium hair. For coarse hair, a slightly curved brush will help you get the look you want while still matching the natural contours of your head. Using a heat protectant product will help ensure your hair looks smooth and silky. Don’t blow your hair out every single day, since it will eventually get dry and brittle. Save it for special occasions.

Doing this too often is damaging to hair, so save it for when you want the smoothest hair possible. You may also want to consider getting your hair professionally straightened. Look into permanent treatments offered by salons in your area.

Opt for a small barrel, such as 1⁄2–1 inch (1. 3–2. 5 cm) for tight curls and a larger barrel, like 2 inches (5. 1 cm) for bigger curls. If your hair is naturally curly, you can define the curls and smooth your hair by curling your hair following its natural pattern. For a heat-free method of enhancing your curls, try using a curl-enhancing cream or gel. Apply a generous amount of your product to your hair. Then, wrap small sections of hair around your finger in the direction of your natural curls.

Find the washing routine that’s right for you. Some people do it 2 or 3 times a week, while others wash every other day if their hair is especially oily. If your hair looks or feels greasy in between washed, apply dry shampoo to the roots. Massage it in to your scalp, then gently brush your hair to distribute the product.

Don’t brush your hair when it’s wet, since this can cause it to break. Only use a boar-bristle brush, or another one designed specifically to distribute your natural oils. Plastic-bristle brushes don’t work the same way, and they can damage your hair.
