Download Article
Section your hair and apply 1 tablespoon (15 mL) oil to your scalp. Use hair clips or ties to divide your hair into 4 even sections.[1] Rub about 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of the Mielle oil into to your scalp between each section.- If you have thick hair, part it into 6 or more sections. If you have braids or weaves, work the oil onto your scalp between each section.[2]
- To use as a hot oil treatment, drop 3 tablespoons (44 mL) of the oil into a heat-safe bowl. Place the bowl in a larger container filled with hot water for a few minutes.[3]
- Test the oil on your wrist to make sure it isn’t too hot, then apply it to your scalp as normal.
Massage the oil in with your fingers or a scalp massager. Focus on working the oil into your scalp to reap all the benefits from the treatment.[4] To treat the rest of your hair (not just your scalp), use your fingers to work the oil all the way down to your ends.[5]- Optionally, apply the oil before straightening your hair for a smooth, sleek look.

Leave the oil in for 30 minutes or overnight, then wash it out. If your hair is straight or gets oily easily, try to leave it in for 30 minutes to an hour.[6] If your hair is coily, thick, or dry, leave the oil in your hair for a few hours or overnight, then wash it out with shampoo.[7]- Mielle only advises washing their product out if you’re using it as a split-end treatment.[8] However, others recommend washing it out after 30 minutes if you have straight or especially oily hair.[9]
- Test the oil on a small area of your scalp for an hour to see if it irritates your skin before leaving it on overnight.
