How to get soft, shiny hair
| February 11, 2013 | Filled under health, skin care |
If you have dry hair and/or scalp this is a MUST try!
My hair was feeling dry and looking dull (darn winter!), and I didn’t want to spend the time or money to go to the salon for a treatment.
Since I had just gotten a new jar of coconut oil, I thought I’d give that a try!
I just took a scoop of oil, put it in my hands until it melted, and then massaged it in my hair. I let it sit for about an hour while I did other things.
Then I washed and conditioned it twice!
I could instantly tell my hair was softer. I dried and styled it like I usually do and loved how my hair was extremely soft, my scalp was not dry and super shiny!
See the difference?
I love how it turned out and will probably do this every couple of weeks, especially during the drier winter months.
Have you ever tried something like this?
Do you use coconut oil? Olive oil?
How did you like it?
It did turn out nice and I keep hearing nothing but great things about Coconut oil.
I have this huge bottle of coconut oil that I am so setting up on a blind date with my hair. Thanks for the inspiration.

Wow what a difference the coconut oil made. My hair tends to be a bit on the oily side but I’d like to try this once a month because it makes the hair look so healthy.
I’ve heard coconut oil is great for hair. It looks beautiful. I’m dying to get my hands on some now. Found you through Becoming Martha’s party.
Good to know – thanks!
Very soft and pretty. I love coconut oil for my face and skin too. I’ll be trying this! Visiting from The DIY Showoff.
I’ve been hearing so much good things about coconut oil for both beauty product substitutes and for cooking. I’ve got to pick some up!
Great idea! I’ll be trying that asap!
Very nice. Remember the old wives tale that you must brush your hair 100 strokes each night?
Wow, your hair looks so shiny and beautiful! What a great tip. Thank you so much for sharing at A Bouquet of Talent. So happy to have you share with us. :)
