Coconut hair mask

Ok so have you read about the wonders of coconut oil? I have....an coconut in general....sooooo today at my favorite place (Costco) I picked up a huge jar of coconut oil and some coconut sugar. You can expect adventures from both of them over the next couple of weeks.

As I type this I have coconut oil in my hair and I am waiting....
But what I can say is that it is kinda cool stuff...i read that it melts in your hands...and it literally does! So neat and it smells good. I am looking forward o trying it in recipes very soon :-)

Update:  I am a little bit obsessed with this stuff.  So as the oil is sitting in a bowl on my counter (cause i had to separate the stuff for beauty against the stuff for the kitchen ewww) and my hair is drying i grabbed a TINY bit and put it back in my hair.  I knew I wouldn't see any real results until this morning when I pulled out my flat iron and fixed my hair.

It is very soft and I am excited about that.  It was a little bit oily (probably because of the extra I put in) so i added some baking soda and baby powder to my roots, now my roots like a little whiter and more grey than they actually are.  (Yes that means I look older) But hopefully that will all be fixed by the time that I leave for work in a few hours.

I will try this again, but I am trying to avoid playing with the little scoop still on my vanity and putting it in my hair until right before the next time that I wash it.

Seriously coconut oil is cool stuff (it better be I bought 78 ounces thank you costco) I love how it melts in your hand! And it smells good....love!
