Guest guest Posted May 13, 2003 Report Share Posted May 13, 2003 Karly, I've been using a dab of coconut oil as a leave in conditioner. No more frizzies and it's soft and shiny. I also rinsed it with apple cider vinegar(about 1/4 cup mixed with a glass of water) at one time. Your hair doesn't smell after it dries. Hope this helps, Ann Would any one have anything that I could whip up for my hair? I have hypothyroid/hashimotos and it has done a number on it! It is so dry that it breaks off. I've done olive oil/banana/honey/egg...and all it did was make it pure heck to get it washed out! Karly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And rosemary essential oil to your brush or shampoo or codnitioner or hot oil treatment lol - it helps with hair regrowth and smells nice Erin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 coconut milk can also be used if you don't like the greasiness of the oil. I learned about coconut from a friend I have who is from the phillipines. Her hair was long and gorgeous!ErinJC23 wrote: Would any one have anything that I could whip up for my hair?

I got the trick from someone on the list not too long back and have since tried it, really liked it, although you need to make sure to get all the oil out to avoid greasiness.Sometimes tap water can hurt the hair, maybe try rinsing with bottled water, the large 1 dollar jugs if you have to.It could be your shampoos also - you ay need to formulate a shampoo/conditioning blendA once a week oil treatment wouldnt be a bad idea for you although the coconut oil should do this trickI only know for dry hair from damage, not dry hair due to a medical condition, but I sure hope we can help you!Maybe try adding a little jojoba oil to your shampoo alsoErin Federal Law requires that we warn you of the following: 1.
