Any how, my hair is to the middle of my back and I would like to know how to use oils and what is the best to use on hair. My hair is dry at the ends but over all in good condition, I have never used oils before and need advice on how to use them. ??? ???

gngirl Amethyst Offline Posts: 38 Gender:	Re: help on oils for hair? Reply #2 - Apr 11^th, 2004 at 9:37pm Thank you flaming_bunny . What is the best oil to use? I hear jojoba oil and almond oil are really good, like I said my ends are dry and I have wave to my hair. I don't know if I should add oil to shampoo or put in dry hair, I'm new to this and just want to keep my hair healthy looking. Thanks again.

Reply #3 - Apr 11^th, 2004 at 9:48pm I use jojoba oil on my hair. I have fine hair and jojoba is a lighter oil that doesn't leave me looking or feeling oily. I oil my hair dry at night before I braid my hair for the night. By morning, I have soft hair and the oil has been absorbed.

Kate Emerald Offline Posts: 328 Linköping, Sweden Gender:	Re: help on oils for hair? Reply #6 - Aug 12^th, 2004 at 8:55am Does anyone have any experience using pure almond oil on their hair? I have tried it a few times but thought my hair became a bit greasy. Maybe I should put it in my conditioner? /Kate P.S. Jojoba oil costs $12 a bottle here, almond costs $3. It's a no-brainer.

Reply #7 - Aug 12^th, 2004 at 3:56pm I've heard that macadamia nut oil is a slightly cheaper substitute for jojoba. Apparently they're very similar... it's just that macadamia nut oil is hard to find. Anais

Reply #9 - Oct 12^th, 2004 at 1:07am Their site looks unprofessional to me, but that's just my personal opinion. What results have you gotten with their product? IMO, I think a good healthy diet and vitamins will get you farther than an externally-applied substance. Anais

Welcome!

I've not heard of this product. Does it list the ingredients on the bottle? I'd be curious to know what it contains. The web site does not list what is in it.
