Coconut oil as hair grease?

Question

I bought some coconut oil a little while ago. I dont have time to wash dry and style my hair - can I just use some coconut oil like I would with hair grease, just to moisturize right now?

Answer 1

It depends on your hair texture, I use coconut oil on my daughter hair, she has thick,naturally curly hair and it works good for her hair. I also use it for myself sometime, but it is kind of thick and it can weigh your hair down depending on the style.

Answer 2

If your hair is not very thick then its not a good idea, as coconut oil is pretty thick to sit on fine hair. But if your hair needs to be tamed then use sparingly.

Answer 3

They sell scented coconut oil in Tahiti, it's used as a hair product! it's a wonderful conditoner and hair tamer. monoi oil any oil you put in your hair will conditon it.

Answer 4

The main ingredient in coconut oil is petroleum jelly(Vaseline).It works,but it makes your hair very greasy.
