I prepoo with wheat germ oil mixed with castor oil as a hot oil treatment under a heat cap. I can tell the positive difference in my hair by incorporating this step into my regimen.
Great thread. I was gonna ask this question. I want the wgo, but I keep hearing everyone talk about how bad it stinks. Maybe I'll just stick to hempseed.
It's not that bad yodie. I mean, when I tried to use it as a leave in I just used it sparingly and I used a thin layer of Vatika Frosting over it which negated the smell. But when used in DCs the smell goes away when its rinsed out. Refrigerating it dampens the smell IMO. I use Now brand.
I now use sunflower oil to seal instead.
I have read that you have to refrigerate wheat germ oil and hempseed oil. Is there anyway of preserving it without refrigeration? Also do the other oils need to be refrigerated?
