Requires a little preparation.
Summary
This is a product that I have used for years. It is effective at dealing with dry and damaged hair instantly, though there are other products on the market that compete well. To increase hydration, I carry out the first shampoo with the oil still present and then shampoo again. If available, look for VO5 'shower works' version which does not need heating, but does the same thing.

4 treatments in a box so excellent value for money. Easy to apply. Nice scent that does not linger on the hair after washing. Attractive and practical individual tube packaging
Weakest points
Not quite as conditioning as other brands
Summary
I have used VO5 hot oil treatments on and off for years. I return to this product time and again because not only is it effective but it actually works. The box has 4 individual sealed tubes, one for each treatment. For very short hair one tube may be used twice. You heat the tube in a cup of hot water or in the sink for a few minutes. After wetting the hair you snap off the cap and apply to your hair. I comb mine through to evenly distribute the oil. The oil is not greasy but more of a dry oil and pleasant in scent. After 5 minutes I shampoo my hair twice (the oil is not responsive to the first shampoo) and then condition. Immediately you see the effects, your hair is softer, very shiny and sleeker. Although this oil treatment is not the deepest conditioning treatment it has excellent results and I would recommend for people with dry or slightly damaged hair. Recommended

Summary
I used this after bleaching part of my hair, that part went noticeably dry and you could tell a massive difference from the natural hair to the bleached.
This made a huge difference and you could not tell my hair was as bad where the bleach killed it.
Would highly recommend this if you are in serious need of nourishment.
