Yes, the same olive oil used in cooking can be used in hair. One method of moisturizing and adding shine to hair is to massage in olive oil and leave it on the hair for about 15 minutes before shampooing.

Sometimes it's used as an ingredient. It used to be used quite a lot, as a sort of conditioner and shine treatment.
