There are some good commercial products for damaged hair, but if you prefer not to use those, you can use olive oil. Simply warm the oil (not hot!), then apply to dry hair. Place a plastic shower cap over your hair, then wrap a warm towel around the shower cap to help retain the warmth. Let it remain on your hair for about 30 minutes, then shampoo as usual. You may have to shampoo twice to get all of the oil out, depending on how damaged or absorbent your hair is. Then follow up with a conditioner.
