Hot Oil Treatment

Hot Oil Treatment is just as the name said , hot oil lol ... I was first introduce to hot oil treatment when I was relax ( currently transitioning ) , I would do this treatment on relax days and maybe sometime  I would put it off to two weeks post relax . The brand hot oil treatment I used back then was V05 , I would massage it in my hair and then let it sit for 10 -15 minutes under a hooded dryer with shower cap , sitting under the dryer is optional .
