Obsessed with OILS!

[FoxybrownBabe]

Why does this list look eerily familiar?? LOL. I love oils too, I'm about to add hempseed oil and walnut oil too..look:

Hmmmmm....hempseed oil and walnut oil ...I was also thinking of adding JBCO (dark), fenugreek, shikakai, silk amino acids (SAA), bhrami, and some Glover's Mane.... Now, I'm going to see if I can find hempseed oil and walnut oil at the Vitamin Shoppe (my new hang-out ) or Amazon... I've also seen a few things I would like to purchase at Hairveda and HennaSooq...

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I'm not really "Obsessed" with Oils but I do have a few:

Right now I have:

Hempseed
Coconut
Olive
JBCO
Kukui Nut
Wheat Germ
Bee Mine Growth Oil Serum
Vitale
Surge
Nexxus Botanic Oil

*had a few others, i.e. jojoba, sweet almond etc....but gave them away.

 

[FoxybrownBabe]

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?

I have thin and fine hair (4a/4b/4c mix - thank you mama and daddy! ) I use Jojoba Oil when I want shine without the oiliness and weight...

 

[belldandy]

extra virgin olive oil
vatika oil
castor oil

sweet almond oil
vitamin e oil (got good growth! )
safflower oil

[chickory_bee]

I own several oils but the ones I actually use are Emu Oil (Carrier) and Basil, Rosemary, Arnica, Peppermint and Tea Tree (EO's).

[gn1g]

I used to love rosemary oil but I don't use it anymore because it increases blood pressure. It was wonderful for clearing the mind.

[BLUEandGOLD2010]

So my "thing" used to be Sweet Almond Oil, but then I stumbled across/accidentally bought safflower oil and I love it for everything: hair, skin, and oil pulling. I use safflower oil daily on dry hair, also when I pre-poo (to seal in the conditioner) and as a hot oil treatment. It is AMAZING!

On occasion, I also use castor oil, EVOO and vatika.
