Using coconut oil in your hair

I've done this as well as used olive oil. It's really hard for me to get out; but I have fine, thin, straight hair. It may work better on thicker, coarse hair. My latest favorite conditioner is 1 T aloe gel, 1 T raw apple cider vinegar, and 3 T water. I used a squeeze bottle to get it all over my hair and leave it in while I shower, then rinse.0

I love it….i use it after i wash my hair not before (whats the point LOL) I use it for texturizor since my hair is super baby fine, pin straight hair and i can't do anything with it but i would take a small amount and apply little by little to the end and work it to the top..you can put in your roots but your hands have to have the thinnest layer and just finger comb on just washed hair..i f hair is not washed then def. only the ends of hair***…i put some on my hands and body stepping out the shower on wet skin and air dry myself not towel dry and it makes my skin so soft and my skin just glows so much like there is oil all over me but not literally it just gives that effect and my husband gets jealous over how soft my skin is…..just a great way to make an ordinary natural product into and indulgent luxury that many don't know about
free energy yeah! olive oil is awesome for hair and skin too-i have def. used olive oil too but didn't mention it for some reason..putting something on your skin that you would not ingest is not as smart….i like olive oil in my bath time..then shower rinse everything off wash hair and apply coconut oil to washed hair..love that plus the shampoo from the hair can wash off any residue from the oily bath water..but its so nice for your skin-significant difference for skin and hair what olive and/or coconut oil can do for it0 -

Well I love it! My hair is super soft and manageable! I even put a small amount on my face and hands before bed. I have it on my feet with socks on today at work. I told my husband this morning I will look like this when I am 80. He said that was creepy. He would be an old man and I would still look 40. lol!
