Coconut Oil Conditioner

Homemade shampoo?  No thanks...been there, tried that...epic fail.  But an all natural alternative to conditioner?  That truly works?  Yes please!  Wait, how much does it cost?  Not even one penny per use?  OK, NOW LET ME AT IT!

                 Coconut Oil Conditioner

*The trick is to flip flop your hair washing routine and condition before shampooing.  

Hop in the shower and thoroughly wet hair.  Rub about 1/4 teaspoon of coconut oil into your hands.  Run fingers all throughout your hair.  Even if it feels like there is nothing left in your hands, do not add more unless you want greasy hair!  Then shampoo as usual.

I bought this Cold Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil from Bountiful Baskets.  One half gallon for $22, which comes out to 1,536 uses of 1/4 t.  At this rate, my $22 jar will last over eight years!

I have been using this method for almost two months.  My hair is softer and shinier.  I've noticed that I lose a lot less hair when brushing.  And best of all it holds a curl like never before.
