Title: ? por que'?

Do you have to wash out coconut oil, and if so then why is it harmful? and also is applying hair grease to the scalp a bad thing? :-/

Well, you don't *have* to wash it out. Some people who use it as a treatment wash it out. I do it both ways. People don't wash it out because it's harmful, but think of it as a deep conditioner AND a leave-in. If you use little enough for it not to show, you won't need to wash it out. If you use too much, it will make your hair appear greasy, so that's why you would want to wash it out, NOT because it's harmful. And no, it's not bad to apply oils to the scalp.

Coconut oil can cause scalp breakouts if it is not shampooed out (the same day, if possible). If you've had scalp breakout issues with certain store-bought conditioners, a pre-wash coconut oil treatment is the safest bet. Other than that, your length can be safely oiled with a small amount for leave-in.
