How do I apply this castor oil to hair and wash it out? — Cosmetic castor oil 100 ml medikomed

This castor oil is designed as a very thick coating oil, so the classic way to use it is as a pre-wash mask. On dry hair, warm 2–3 drops between your palms and apply to the mid-lengths and ends, not the scalp — especially if your scalp becomes greasy easily. Spread the oil evenly with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb, then leave it for 20–30 minutes. Because castor oil is occlusive and dense, you may need to shampoo twice to remove it fully. After towel-drying, you can rub a single drop between your palms and pat it onto the ends to smooth flyaways if the rest of your hair feels dry.

Do not apply to the scalp in large amounts: the heavy film can leave roots looking flat or oily. If you have sensitive or reactive skin, do a small patch test on your forearm first and wait to see how your skin reacts. If it stings, itches, or becomes red, wash it off and stop using the product. This is a cosmetic oil for conditioning, softness and shine, not a scalp treatment.
