Also the natural oils in my hair…

…seem to work really well on my wand.

I washed the dye out of it the other day – it looks much nicer its own natural color, rather than artificially darkened – and it got really really dried out.  So I’ve been using tiny bits of lemon oil and amla oil to get it oily and happy again.  And I’d read that even the natural oil from your hands is good for it, so now I’m getting oil from my hair and rubbing it on it and that seems to work really well too.

The amla oil, by the way, really brings out the beautiful colors in the wood.  I thought it might because it does the same thing for dark hair, and this is very dark wood.  And the wood seems to absolutely love it, and it becomes really beautiful.  I’ve never heard of someone using amla oil on wood before, but I know you can use lots of different kinds of oils on wood, so I tried it.

And the combination of the lemon oil, amla oil, hand oil, and hair oil seem to be getting it back to its healthier state than after it got waterlogged and then dried out by the water.
