In reply to SherryG. Sherry, maybe it's the fatty acid content that breaks you out? All oils have them, in different proportions. And I agree, coconut oil is awesome for hair.

Coconut breaks me out. I have combo skin and also a fragrance allergy. In fact, all plant oils break me out, and I think there must be an allergic component to even non-fragrant oils. My skin likes conventional products. But coconut oil does work well on my hair!

In reply to SP. SP, yes both coconut oil and olive oil are amazing for hair. Coconut oil penetrates the hair shaft better than other oils so it doesn't only protect it from heat, it also strengthens it from within. I highly recommend it.

Does coconut oil work as a good thermal protectant? I am wondering about using coconut oil before I use a hair dryer or curling/flat iron on my hair.

Does olive oil work as a good thermal protectant?

For some reason I’ve started to develop chemical sensitivities and am struggling to find hair products so I am trying to use ‘food’ products that I know I am not allergic to or have any dermatitis from using. Olive oil is always safe for me. Coconut oil isn’t one I’ve tried before though.

In reply to Stavroula DrugstoreBLover. Stavroula, it is so versatile, isn't it? I love using it as a pre-shampoo treatment too. It's amazing.

I loooove coconut oil and I use it mainly as a pre-shampoo hair mask and to remove the bulk of my makeup, it works great! I’ve even done a post about the top 20 uses of coconut oil 😉 x
