[miami74]

I'm in on this challenge! I love coconut oil. I used the Spectrum brand from Vitaminshoppe. I already use it in my oil mixture that I use to massage my scalp. I also, use it in my prepoo and DC mixes. Sometimes I do an oil rinse with it. When I rollerset, I like to add coconut oil to my hair before rolling it up.

Um, okay. Nutiva and Vatika Frosting (does that one count?). Prepoo and scalp massages thru 7/3/08

Some other goodies , but it's coconut oil based and still has the consistency.

[nipday]

This sounds good!

But how do you use it exactly? The unrefined coconut oil is a solid, right?

Yeah. I just rub it between my hands and rub it on my TWA then massage my scalp.

 

[joyandfaith]

How long should we let the pre-poo sit before co-washing?

 

[MirrorDoll]

Good luck ladies!

I'm not joining, but I'me very curious to see what the results are

 

[cieramichele]

How long should we let the pre-poo sit before co-washing?

Do it overnight or atleast 30 minutes before. Just my opinion from my experience and research.

 

[MeechUK]

Hi Ciceramichele,

I use Holland & Barretts Unrefined Coconut Oil.

I use it everyday, either in my cereal or in a hot drink

I use it on my ends every other day and massage my scalp daily/nightly

I will use it in my pre-poo and for scalp massages

[lilsparkle825]

i know it's gotta be up here somewhere but i can't find it. i used to prepoo then i stopped because i didn't really know why i was doing it. what is the purpose of prepooing?

 

[HoneyA]

This challenge is a good one. I've been pre-pooing for months with coconut, castor, and olive oils and it really has done wonders for my hair. It's stronger, thicker and softer. I also apply oil before my retouch which protects the hair. Good luck on your challenge!

 

[scarcity21]

Yeah. I just rub it between my hands and rub it on my TWA then massage my scalp.

Say what? u did the BC? CONGRATULATIONS!!! Off to go see if u posted pics or started a thread! lol

 

[joyandfaith]

Pre-poo'd last night with my Vatika oil and co-washed this morning. My hair is so soft and manageable this morning. It should be easy to keep this challenge up all month...I love the results!

I don't think ther's anything wrong with it. Do you have the Extra-Virgin kind in the jar that's sold in the pharmacy or the kind that's sold near the cooking oil?

Next to the cooking oil

It says ''Non hydrenated, All natural'' erplexed

I don't think it would be a problem. But, you may want to try the extra-virgin, unrefined so you can get the "full benefits" of coconut oil.
