Temperatures are dropping, the air is getting colder and for some, your hair is probably getting drier by the day. A few weeks ago I tried this quick olive oil & honey pre-poo (pre-shampoo) treatment on my dry strands and was very pleased with the results. I can’t even explain the softness of my hair afterwards! So, the big question on your mind is probably what’s so great about honey & olive oil? This post will break down this quick remedy for dry hair.
Honey works as a humectant to attract and retain moisture to the hair. It doesn’t have to be a special brand, I just chose raw organic honey from Trader Joes because it’s where I grocery shop on a weekly basis. Olive oil is amazing for so many reasons but in short, it promotes scalp growth and works well with fighting dandruff. Just doing a hot olive oil treatment without the honey is great for dry hair as well.
Below are the quick steps I took for the honey & olive oil pre-poo.
Measurements: (I have short to medium length hair so adjust accordingly for your hair type)
1 Tablespoon of honey
2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
Step 1: Mix honey and olive oil parts in a bowl
Step 2: Melt the honey and olive in microwave (this helps with applying to hair)
Step 3: Apply to wet or slightly damp hair in sections.
Step 4: Allow the treatment sit for about 30 mins under plastic cap or wrap hair in warm towel
Step 5: Shampoo and condition, style and enjoy!
What are some of your favorite pre-poo treatments?

Fresh poppy pods are the seed pods that are harvested from the poppy flower. Poppies are known for their beautiful flowers, but it’s their seed pods that are of the most value. These pods contain the seeds for the next crop and, when dried, they are frequently used in floral arrangements and other decorative crafts. By using fresh poppy pods, you can take your art to the next level as it gives a natural and pleasant look to your creations.
