So, March marks, my 5 month mark and it seemed my hair wanted me to try something new! Now, I don't use any products, except shampoo. Well, because of that, my hair started feeling real dry at the end of month four. I did a little research and read raving reviews about coconut oil.
Last week, after the gym, I went to my vitamin shoppe to pick up some Ceritfied Prganic Extra Virgin, UNREFINED (this is important) Coconut Oil. The one I got, pictured below, is a product straight from the Philippines! Score!
So I took this SUPER light weight oil and liquified it and massaged it into my hair and scalp and let it sit for an hour or more. After that, I washed with my clarifying shampoo. The first thing I noticed was just how soft, lush and moiturized - not brittle feeling after using a clarifying shampoo - my hair felt!
Just like that, my hair was literally transformed by adding the nourishing coconut oil to my locs! *Why haven't I used this sooner?* Well, I didn't want to use any oils because I was afraid of build up. However, coconut oil is the LIGHTEST oil EVER and adds shine to my hair and strengthens it, as well.
I used it here and there all last week after washing or rinsing and I just loved the affects! My hair just looked so healthy! I just did another treatment where I saturated my hair with the coconut oil and my hair feels SO.AMAZING!!!
I am glad I found out about this coconut oil, but don't just get ANY kind of coconut oil! It has to be ORGANIC and UNREFINED! Pure coconut oil! I got mine for $9 and it's the best $9 I've ever spent :-)
Here are some pics of my hair; It is getting SO thick! I love it!
Thanks for stopping by!!
Ciao,
