Natural Beauty:Homemade Hot Oil treatment

I have really dry,thick hair and one of the products thats I miss the most since I've been in Madrid is VO5's hot oil treatments. So I figured, since Spain has some of the world's best olive oil, why not take advantage of my resources and Mcgyver something up. The result: a cheap and easy to make home remedy that works Even Better(!) than V05.
 Just goes to show: natural+ artisanal = Better!
  Enjoy :)

You will need:

1 tablespoon olive oil
5 pumps of organic avocado oil(from NaturaSí) OR half an avocado mashed finely
3 pumps of Argan oil OR  coconut oil

Instructions:

 1.Mix all three oils into a small bowl(I prefer terra cotta because it heats up more in the shower)
 2.  Place bowl in corner of shower and allow to heat up while you bathe
 3. Wet and divide hair into three parts(left, right and back) and dip the ends (only!) into the bowl. Allow ends to soak up as much oil as possible. If any oil is left, spread throughout the rest of your hair.
 4. clip hair up and place in shower cap or plastic bag.
 5. let hair sit and steam for about 2-3 minutes.
 6. Wash and condition as usual.
