Right now, I use a mixture of coconut, castor and jojoba oil to seal my hair and I'm in love. I started using just coconut oil last year and then added castor oil at the end of 2012 and recently started adding jojoba oil to the mix. It is amazing. I use a ratio of of about 6:1:1 , with coconut oil being 6 and castor and jojoba being 1.

I adore castor oil. I really really like coconut oil, but I like it more for my body than hair though I do use it for my hair. I've always wanted to try avocado oil. I've used jojoba oil in the past, not sure why I stopped using it. My understanding is that it replicates the oils our body naturally produces?

my favorite oils right now are EVOO, and coconut oil. EVOO is so light on my hair and I am not even heavy handed when I apply it (which is my normal way). I feel like my hair retains moisture best when I use one of the two. I also use jojoba oil and I used to use it more but like @nkfd I'm not sure why I stopped using it

all I can be is napturally me!

EVOO is a staple for me. I use it as part of my LOC method. The only other oils I use sometimes are jojoba oil or castor oil. EVOO is super easy to get, it's cheap and my hair seems to really like it. It doesn't make my hair super greasy and I'm very heavy handed.

I love Dr. Akilah. She is a master herbalist and shows people how to care for themselves naturally. She has introduced a natural hair oil that stimulates growth. Check her out on YouTube "HealingPowerHour

COAT: Coconut oil, Olive oil, Avocado oil and Tea tree oil

These are my top 4 oils. I oil my scalp daily with a natural oil using the first 2 oils listed your hair does not get weighed down or feel oily because these oils penetrate the hair shaft. Oily your hair daily will eliminate single strand knots, decrease your breakage and less tangles. If you get your hair to a healthy place all you need to put on it daily is a natural cold pressed oil.
