5.0 out of 5 stars One of the few oils that will penetrate the hair shaft, July 22, 2008

This review is from: Spectrum Naturals - Coconut Oil Organic, 14 oz liquid (Health and Beauty)

After I started using Shakakai and Amla powder on my hair with fantastic results (you can see my reviews for them as well) I did some research on Avurvedic hair care and decided to try using oil on my hair as well. I found studies showing that coconut and olive oil are two of the few oils that will penetrate the hair shaft so I started mixing them (50/50) to use in my hair after washing as a leave in treatment. The result was unbelievably soft hair!!! But even better than the way it's worked on my hair is the way it's worked on my daughters hair. One of my girls has very curly, baby fine hair which does NOT make for a good combination when it comes to tangles. The first time I used these oils I was able to brush through her hair with virtually no tangles! But the best thing was the way it made my hair feel. I have a sensory touch sensitivity... I can't tolerate feeling oil or sticky substances on my hands. I can't even stand to pet dogs who have short, coarse fur. So it goes without saying that I was a little concerned about putting oil in my hair!!! But not only did it turn out super soft, it is absolutely non greasy once it absorbs into the hair and it also feels cleaner somehow. My hair looks super shiny and healthy... I'm so amazed at the difference. It's really done wonders!

I've started cooking with coconut oil and have been researching it. It is a SAFE product, makes foods crispier, and ordering it from [...] is the most economical price ANYWHERE. I order the organic because my daughter does not like the flavor of coconut and organic has no flavor or very, very slight; I also order virgin coconut oil because I like the flavor of coconut. Research this yourself and you will find Spectrum Naturals is a good product and [...] offers the best price. It has NO TRANS FAT!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars New to organics, December 17, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Spectrum Naturals - Coconut Oil Organic, 14 oz liquid (Health and Beauty)

Hmmm. Coconut oil that can be used for body and for cooking. I was suspect. Opened jar to get a wiff of my beloved coconut fragrance. NONE. Only after the fact did I do my reading to learn the benefits of this product. I Like it. Texture while cold seems gritty upon scooping out, but goes on smooth upon application. If heated, turns completely liquid. Left mine by a heating element accidently and I thought someone had poured water into the jar. Firmed back up on window sill. I used this product for after bath with great results. Used it on the kids. Used it for sauteing something when I ran out of regular oil. Worked fine. I didn't rate 5 stars because I didn't like the idea of scooping it out while firm which is my preferred texture for body application. I'd buy it again as I'm moving towards more natural products.
