Hair Closet Review: Coconut Oil

Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, 15-Ounce Unit (Pack of 2)



Ladies, do I really need to go here? Coconut Oil... I LOVE coconut oil. If you read The Anti Hair Slave then you know I LOVE coconut oil. I can't sing the praises of the oil enough. I use it for everything. Coconut oil is my multi purpose oil. I use it on my body as an oil and in my hair. Our focus here is hair so let's get into the many uses of coconut oil.



1. Coconut Oil as a Pre Shampoo Treatment - The night before 'hair day' I like to sometimes do an overnight treatment where I put coconut oil all over my hair from root to tip and tie it up. I especially like to do this before an Ayurvedic rinse, it makes my hair especially feel good.

2. Coconut Oil as a Hot Oil Treatment - Apply coconut oil to my entire head, cover with a plastic cap and then sit under my bonnet dryer for at least a half an hour.

3. Coconut Oil as a Deep Conditioner Add On - Adding coconut oil into conditioners makes my hair extra shiny. I love this stuff!

I use Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil.  I order the two pack from Amazon.com - 1 for the body and 1 for the hair.  Costs about $18.00
