Looking Good With Healthier Hair!

Good Evening Everyone!

      Let's keep it light this week and talk about something that's simply going to make us look good!  A healthy head of hair always makes one look at their best and something from the food store cooking isle will help us achieve that.  That product from the food store is coconut oil.  Research has indicated that using coconut oil (melted and lightly applied) as a pre-wash conditioner will prevent the loss of protein from hair and reduce damage/breakage due to washing.  This is possible because coconut oil repels water when applied, and therefor reduces water penetration into the hair strands. 

Note:  The research indicated all types of hair improved, but chemically treated hair saw the biggest benefit when using coconut oil as a pre-wash. 

Yours in Health (and looking good)
