QuestionCan I use almond oil on my hair daily?This answer was written by one of our trained team of researchers who validated it for accuracy and comprehensiveness.wikiHow Staff EditorStaff AnswerThis article recommends applying almond oil once a week, which is all that should be necessary, although if you wish to apply 2-3 times a week, you are unlikely to have any problems. Applying almond oil every single day may be too often. The oil may stay on your hair for long periods and attract dirt or dust, which obviously isn't good for your hair. Use your best judgment and apply less frequently if you feel build-up or dirt/dust in your hair.

QuestionI've put almond oil onto my hair dry and I'll sleep with it overnight, but should I wash it out with just shampoo in the morning or both shampoo and conditioner? And if I choose to use conditioner as well as just shampoo, then will it take away what the oil is doing?Community AnswerWash as you normally would, with both shampoo and conditioner. The conditioner will not take anything away from the treatment - it's mainly the shampoo that washes the oil out; the conditioner just adds extra benefits. And by sitting in your hair overnight, the oil has plenty of time to do its work on your hair; those benefits are not reversed by washing your hair.
