If I put olive oil or coconut oil in my hair, how do I wash it out. Wouldn't oil make your hair oily and hard to wash it out? The answer is you want it to absorb into your hair. Leave it on the bottom third of your hair for as long as possible, then shampoo and condition normally. You can also use a tiny amount on the ends after your hair is dried. It will soak in. Shampoos are designed to dissolve oil. It's not like shampoo is water, where water and oil don't mix. Shampoos have the chemicals (or even natural things) to break down oils. It may take a few rinse and repeats to get it all out, but it shouldn't be that big of a problem.
Check out Beauty Brains and they explain that coconut oil is one of the few oils that actually penetrate
the hair shaft. I find mine sucks it up like a sponge. However you should only use it from about half the
hair shaft down. Make sure you only apply the oil to the ends and not on scalp which is where the natural oils of your hair is produced.
