Coconut oil is popular in a number of products. The oil is also touted for its many healthy properties which include vitamins, antioxidants, and medium-chain fatty acids. These factors help coconut oil hydrate and nourish skin and, when used on hair, can encourage strong, healthy locks.
You can massage coconut oil into your scalp regularly to encourage healthy hair conditions. Additionally, coconut oil is said to improve the amount of protein in your hair, something that may reduce breakage and hair loss.
Apply coconut oil as a hair mask as it is or mix a few drops of lavender or rosemary essential oils into your coconut oil to create a hair strengthening and growth encouraging treatment.
