My Hair was starting to get pretty dry so I decided to try something that is all the rave on the internet! The Coconut Oil Hair Mask.
As you can see it is quite dry. Egh! These are the before pictures. It is also frizzy because I just brushed it.
So I put a bunch of coconut oil all in my hair. I know, weird right? But, hey, a girls gotta do what a girl’s gotta do!
I then combed it through thoroughly before putting it up in a bun for the afternoon.
After the afternoon was over, I washed my hair per normal. It took a few washes to get all of the oil out, but it finally looked normal. These are the after pictures. I liked what it did to my hair. It felt so much more natural and soft after the mask. It still looks kind of frizzy here, but it wasn’t really. I probably wouldn’t do my whole head in Coconut oil again. Too much work to get it all off my scalp. I will definitely be applying it to my ends on occasion to help give them some moisture and softness.
I would recommend not applying all over the scalp, I think I would do it over night or maybe even longer as well. Once it was in a bun, it didn’t really look like I had just slathered Oil all over my hair. It actually looked ok, like I wouldn’t mind going out in public with the Mask on. LOL.
What about you? Have you ever tried a Coconut Oil Hair Mask? Do you have any tips or tricks for me?

Your hair definitely looks happier in the ‘after’ pictures! 😉 I rarely have trouble with dry hair but I’ll keep coconut oil in mind for my ends if they get dry down there. 😀
I really want to try this!! You’re hair is gorgeous!! I want to get as many tips as I can from you. 😉
I know you do the “no poo” method, so do you think washing my hair with shampoo and conditioner after the hair mask would effect the effect of the coconut hair mask??

Nope, not really. And in a lot of cases, you need to use shampoo to get all the extra oil out. Most people do the mask with normal shampoo/conditioner routine all the time. I would recommend using it once a month to keep your hair shiny and nourished.
Thank you, Victoria! I am planning to try the “no poo” method at the beginning of 2018 and try the coconut hair mask.
