Dipping Your Ends in Hot Coconut Oil

[HeChangedMyName]

Wow. Let me find out...

I know right. I'm anxiously awaiting next time i do my hair i want to do this.

Apparently my local Walmart and Pharmacy sucks...much of what you all have seen at yours, lacks at mine. Go figure. I'll keep searching, but hey, there's always internet shopping.

Check the food section, Lou anna is on the regular ole crisco aisle .lol

I prepoo my hair like this. then leave it on for at least 2 hours sometimes overnight. Works well, have to be careful not to get the oil too hot

i just did this, i put the oil in a tiny glass and put it in a boiling pot, the oil was nice and hot! i had hair in four brainds and diped my ends in the oil, covering about 4inches up my braids. let sit in the oil for about 3mins then pined up with a bobby pin.

I think I'm going to do this tomorrow except after having the braids sit for the 3-5min in the oil then I'm going to baggy it up and leave in overnight. I'll let you all know how it goes!

How is this working for everyone? What has been the condition of your ends now?

I use warm coconut oil too, but never like that. I will try it. But question: if you live in a cold climate, I find that the coconut oil gets hard on your hair when you go out. That is the only downside....any suggestions?

In this thread, I believe they are washing it out. However, I have heard other ladies complain of this. My hair is always protected(sew-in, hat, wig) from the cold air so this isn't an issue for me.
