Coconut oil

Virgin Coconut Oil is becoming more and more popular in our contry...it has many uses....it even aids in weight loss because it stimulates the thyroid gland thereby improving metabolism! There are flavored ones in the market since the chief complaint of consumers is the taste.

Anyway, I put it on my hair at least 15 minutes before I take a shower. My hair's more manageable now. Some say that they get a nice tan when they apply it as a suntan oil. I heard that it's also a good skin moisturizer and pore minimizer but I haven't tried it on my skin yet.

I bought some coconut oil from Whole Foods last night...I used it as a hot oil treatment and it made my hair super soft! I was just wondering if any one has ever tried to use it to style their hair or to oil their scalp...it seems like it might congeal and cause buildup...just wondering?

When I was younger i used it for hair and scalp and the next day I washed it. From what I remember I think coconut oil is very good (for the scalp), cuz back then I had no problems with my scalp, but now it`s more then dehydrated. I `m gonna use it again, but I have to find pure coconut oil (hard to find) and hopefully it will help my scalp.

If you`ll not use too much for your hair, it will be ok to use (just a few drops). Or mix it with distilled water and then spray it on your hair, this will be lighter for the hair.

OMG it is the best! After 2 days of putting this to your body you will see the difference. However, you would just have to endure the smell and i suggest that you use this just at home or before you sleep. You will wake up to a smooth skin and dry patches will dissapear. I also drinking this since it helps my allergies and also to speed up metabolism. Its a big thing in our country. Its everywhere.
