Coconut oil does wonders for dry/damaged hair. I have seen a dramatic improvement in my own hair since I started using it last summer. It does make your hair very greasy, so I recommend using it...

I bleach my hair, not much because I am naturally blonde but now it's white (with the use of toners and purple shampoos - by the hairdresser). It goes down past my bum and I'm tall! I am living...

I'm one of those people that can't put anything on my face without breaking out or having a bad irritation. Coconut Oil when it's organic has helped heal my skin, I didn't apply it for a few days...

Coconut oil is one of several oils I have used for thirty years to luxuriously moisturise, smooth, and condition my skin. It gets rid of any poor tone, dryness and milia (goosebumps) on the arms...

I use extra virgin organic coconut oil on my hair. It is the only oil proven to absorb into the cortex of the hair and prevent protein loss. I have found it to be very conditioning on the hair, and...
