"It's no secret that coconut oil is like liquid gold where hair is concerned. Dry hair slurps it up immediately, and you can feel and see the difference after a treatment," explains Wendy Rose Gould beauty expert for hair tutorial and advice site Latest-Hairstyles.com.
"Today we're taking the traditional coconut oil hair mask one step further, though, by combining coconut oil with a super potent blend of hair-nourishing oils. Together, they'll soften, hydrate, restore and strengthen the ends of your hair to prevent dreaded breakage and split ends."

About The Oils:
- Coconut Oil: The base of this anti-breakage, split-end treatment is coconut oil. All hair can benefit from coconut oil, but it is especially beneficial for brittle, breaking hair. It will deeply moisturizing, soften and add sheen.
- Oontanga Oil: This is oil made from African watermelon seeds, and it is loaded with essential fatty acids that stops your hair from breaking and makes hair shiny.
- Camellia Seed Oil: This oil comes from Korea and permeates the hair shaft to restore vibrancy and strength. It also softens your hair and keeps split ends and breakage at bay.
- Argan Oil: This is a conditioning oil that seals the cuticle, adds shine, and makes hair more manageable during the styling process.
Note: Because this treatment is so oil heavy, we recommend restricting usage to your ends, which is where most breakage and split ends occur anyway.
Coconut Oil Hair Mask Recipe:
Step 1
Combine two tablespoons of liquid coconut oil with 10 drops of each of the other oils and stir well.
Step 2
Apply the oil blend to the ends of your hair and let it set for 10 to 20 minutes before shampooing.
Step 3
Condition and style as normal and repeat once a week for best results.
This recipe makes enough for three weeks of treatment (depending on hair length and thickness). Store in an airtight jar in a dark place. If you place it in the fridge, you'll need to zap it for 30 seconds to melt it down again.
