You could warm the content of the container by placing it in a pot of water and gently heating the pan. When you have achieved the desired temperature, massage the oil into your hair and scalp.

As soon as the towel becomes cold, replace with another warm one. Allow this to stand for anywhere between 30 – 45 minutes before you wash it off with a (chemical-free) shampoo.
