Sharing Coconut Oil Experiences for the ladies....

Coconut oil is one of the oils the ladies at Long Hair Community sing praises of.

I'm one of those long haired ladies and I use it on my ends. Grapeseed is actually better for that. I have a small jar on my desk at work and I put it on my cuticles a couple of times a day and sometimes use it as a hand lotion. It's fantastic for frying. I do a blend of refined coconut oil and canola for that. It replaces hydrogenated shortening for baking. Shortening is terrible for you. It also is useful for getting labels off jars.

I use coconut oil combined with a raw egg and some mayo on my hair then let it sit wrapped in plastic wrap for at least and hour and shampoo and condition. I do this about every very 2 weeks, but sometimes weekly depending on how hard I am in my hair.

Coconut oil is the best for hair. It's not called the King of natural conditioners for nothing.

I have a big jar of organic Coconut oil!

Totaly amazing! twice a month I put it in on my hair and leave it overnight or for a few hours!

The best thing! I recommended it highly for the hair.

Been using coconut oil masks for hair and scalp for a while. Read an article here and switched to homemade masks with coconut oil and avocado. Works fine for me and I love the smell. As OP said, you won't need perfume anymore
Though skin detox and daily supplement sound like a neat idea to me. But teeth pulling? OMG.

Having tried coconut oil and other things, the best I've found so far is actually a mix of two egg whites beaten with a tablespoon of coconut oil. As with everything, YMMV

I used it for my hair, and I am very happy with the results (My ends became less dryer). By the way is it possible to use the same oil for cooking? (I have "virgin" coconut oil)

Yes, but I prefer refined for cooking because virgin has a slight taste to it. I like eggs fried in coconut oil better than in butter. The fat really intensifies the flavor of the eggs and I digest coconut better than any other fat out there.
