you ladies have me cracking up! yes, i am a total PJ and yes, i am obsessed with oils, but more so, i'm obsessed with their benifits!
i was not like this before i came to lhcf, though
(at least, not with the OILS!)
OSTRICH OIL:
Obtained From: rendered from the bird fat
and refined
Contains: high content of Omeaga-6 and
Omega-9 essential fatty acids
Uses: non-comodogenic; transdermal; conditioning;
moisturizing properties
so, it will not clog your pores, it will penetrate your skin's top layer, and give you really deep moisturizing.
so i feel free to apply this even to my scalp and mix it with other scalp oils.
(i also use it for my face from time to time)
i got mine from: gardenofwisdom.com (excellent, fast, efficient service!)

I don't know what happened to me...one moment I was steady Keeping It Simple and the next....
Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
EVOO
Vitamin E Oil
Shea Butter
Sesame Oil
Avocado Oil
Macadamia Oil
Jojoba Oil
Sweet Almond Oil
Here's the thing though, (this is where I start fast talking and trying to justify...) I bought a sample of Ojon Hydrating Conditioner and it worked great!! But then I started thinking to myself, "Gosh, it's loaded with all these good oils and stuff but how do I know this product is really concentrated with the good stuff??" So I could just mix all this good stuf in myself and... and....yeah. LOL.
PJism...it sure does sneak up on you.

I hope this isn't a hijacker-style post.
I have like 4 bottles of amla oil (Dabur) and about 4 bottles of mustard oil. I have no idea what to do with them.
Since you lovely posters are like oil experts, can y'all help me with suggestions of how to use this collection?
I was going to use the mustard oil on my scalp b/c I heard it was full of sulfur. And is mustard oil safe to heat? I know people cook with it, and that involves heating.
The Dabur I have no idea how to use and reap the benefits b/c it has mineral oil. Should I hot oil treatment with it?
I have never used mustard oil but i swear by Amla oil. Amla has increased the strength of my hair tremendously.
I add my amla oil to coconut oil warm it a little and do my pre poo. That's all! And it works very well

OMG you ladies have AMAZING collections!!!!!!!!!!!! 
Just the thought of combining everyone's oils to make one giant collection is making my hair tingle!!! :blush3:
And grow.... what an exotic collection!!!! I've never heard of at least five of those oils!!!!
Flowinlocks - A lot of people use the amla oil as a pre-poo, or they use it with their conditioner and rinse it out. The mustard oil gives your scalp a nice tingle. It stimulates growth and is very strong so a little goes a long way. I use it in my pre-poo on my scalp only. Another poster was using it as a massage with her conditioner and said it was super!
LOVE OILS!!!!!
Someone was going to add castor oil.... DO IT!!! You'll never go back. It's my second favorite oil

I should not have came in here!
I am just browsing around to say something a bit off topic.
I use coconut oil for shine there is nothing comparable to it however in the long run it dries my hair out. You oil junkies: what can I apply to my fine hair, that is already styled, for moisture and shine that will not make it too heavy?

hi gn1g!
i have fine hair, too, so what i usually use when i want something light is one of my seed oils (depending on the season).
my preferences are for: Kiwi seed, Watermelon seed and Broccoli seed.
i've read studies where Broccoli seed oil is being compared to silicone products because "it acts" like a cone with the mega shine, but without blocking the moisture from penetrating the hair shaft like a real cone.
i've also noticed that i haven't had any problems with reversion when using it; something that cones guarantee (the reversion is eliminated) because they block out the moisture from air and other things, so i've found it to be a safe "cone like" shine element that's also healthy!

At one time I had bought so many oils, but I realized that my hair is not that fragile where I need to use a million and one oils.Right now, I use olive oil, avocado oil and coconut oil. That is it. I had bought some Jamaican castor oil, it was okay, more like an oil for those with extremely dry hair, so now I just added the last of it to my deep conditioner to use it up.

@Zawaj: aaw..thank you. I use argan oil mostly when I do my rhassoul treatments. I add a spoon of argan oil to my rhassoul mix. I was tempted to use it as a sealer but it is so precious. I also use it as a face oil
@lwilliams: yes ma'am, I do rotate them. I have a hard time choosing favorites. I love them all
@grow: hey. Thank you for the kind words. No, I do have moringa powder from the leaves that I use for rhassoul treatments. I also added 2 tsp of moringa powder and let it infuse in coconut oil. But I do have the pure moringa oil pressed from the seed of moringa tree
@gn1g: like grow said, I also suggest a light oil such as watermelon
@RossBoss: I also like adding jbco to my deep conditioners
