I love to use lavender and coconut oil for my extra dry skin and patches of excema.
I would like some advice. There is a patch of dry flaky skin under my hair at the L nape of my neck. I’m wondering if I could put coconut oil right on it under the hair,
and if so, how long would I leave it on before washing it out?
Thank you.
coconut oil although is very popular needs to be used with discretion . a small amount but it actually can clog pores and cause hardening of tissues after prolonged us .
I enjoy the benefit of the oil

Use extreme caution when purchasing Essential Oils as the pure Oils are not easily extracted and in a lot of cases there are many oils that are advertised as Essential Oils but are fakes.
Would like to try cbd oil but not sure if my pain Dr would approve
I leave coconut oil on overnight sometimes. Otherwise I used to use warm up coconut oil, tea tree oil, and lemon juice. But I have drier hair. Egg is good for hair too with the protein. Only recommend at max ten mins. And rinse with cold water you dont want an omelette 😉
