Natural Oils and Hair

Just the other day, while browsing online, I came across a tried and true favorite hair staple of mine.

Not only was it good for protecting my ends against harsh weather and rubbing up against clothing, it was also very effective in keeping my scalp and the length of my hair feeling moisturized. What is this staple you ask?


Coconut Oil.

I first learned about the benefits of coconut oil on the hair and skin on one of my favorite haircare forums.

Benefits Include:  

-   High Moisture Retention Capacity  -
the use of coconut oil on the hair helps to seal in moisture since it is not easily broken down and does not evaporate easily.  
-  Anti-Dandruff  -
the fatty acids present in coconut oil prevent dandruff from forming on the scalp and continued use may prevent dandruff trouble forever
-  Lauric Acid Antimicrobial Properties  -
a lot of times hair loss and scalp issues arise from bacterial growth and dead skin cells

One of the brands that I am most looking forward to purchasing is ADARA'S Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. It comes in a variety of subtle fragrances and is only $12 per bottle. Again, this product is all natural and can be used not only on the hair but on the skin as well, during harsh winter weather, to prevent dryness.
At a price like that-- what a steal!


ADARA Coconut Oil can be purchased at b-glowing.com
