Hair Growth & Coconut Oil : What You Need To Know 🔥

[@its.the.bling.for.me.2]

I have been studying up on coconut oil for many years and found that coconut oil is a healing oil it kills bacteria , unclogs pores, neutralizes oily hair soothes very dry skin and hair etc. I found and read that you sit the area you are try to heal for about 20 minutes than cleanse that area. Once the area has cleared up than you stop using it cause the oil has done it job if you continue to use onut oil it will have a drying effect. the only time I find it will clog your pores is you leave the oil on the area you are treating for a extended amount of time the oil is made to absorbs into your pores do it's purpose and be cleansed out not to sit that when the clogging comes in.

[@alvarosandovalcazares1579]

Rebecca Haynes I found the opposite: suggestions about leave coconut oil on hair for days!

[@One1973CeCe]

I've had a good experience with coconut oil. I hope it doesn't change😱

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

That is awesome! many people have. I pray it doesn't change for you either. Enjoy your hair growth journey and keep me in the loop with your results. Big Hugs! xo

I just started using coconut oil two days ago, and my hair has come alive. My twist out was so gorgeous and my hair is so soft and shiny. I got that exact same one that you have from Thrive Market, it was free. Man I hope it continues to do well with my scalp and hair.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

I am happy your hair is thriving! Please keep me updated and have a great day! xo

[@queenofmyempiresouthbeach590]

I am sooo proud of this young lady, I remember how her hair was really bad... love u.. keep u the great hair#one love

[@meka1002]

Coconut oil has helped my hair, when I stopped my hair started breaking bad ... I began using it again my hair began to grew flourished, so I decided to balance it out. just use it as a pre-poo or hot oil treatment twice a month and not use it as a sealant. My hair really needs it.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

I am so happy that your hair is flourishing! This is awesome! Keep up the good work, doing what is working for you sis! Have a great day! xo

[@darcelbishop3273]

Hey if I wanna just coconut by itself for a prepoo, is that ok?

[@MyNaturalMyChoice]

I only use coconut oil in the spring and summer. I recently learned that coconut oil and winter weather is no match for my hair! During the winter months I noticed after using coconut oil my hair seems to be dryer, hard and rough... So only warm seasons I will use coconut oil... Thanks for sharing.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Great info! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with coconut oil. I truly believe that when we all communicate we help each other so much. Thank you for being a part of this journey with me. It honestly means the world to me. Have a great day! xo

[@asania8104]

My hair loves coconut oil, however I rarely use only coconut oil by itself. I usually mix it with other natural carrier oils and essential oils. My hair loves it my hair is now tailbone length. Keep up the good work on informing the natural hair community. To be honest I got a lot of great info from your channel in the beginning of my hair growth journey.

[@entertainmentonly956]

[@latoyagarvin1439]

key word she said not everyone. for me I've used olive oil grape seed, castor oil, jojoba, argan , sunflower oil, and lots of different essential oils. ive protected styled and took excellent care of my hair with no growth results and greasy but dry hair. once I switched to coconut oil it's like i could feel the tingling growth, hair looks super healthy and shines from with in the strands, not greasy shine at all. most importantly my hairs half my back in only a year and 4 months. better than my 5 year hair journey with barely making arm pit.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

It's nice to know that you were listening :)
Thank you so much for sharing and have an amazing day! xo

[@CamDollM3]

I have just started to use coconut oil in my hair. And I haven't experienced the build up or breaking. I hope it helps with the growth of my hair. My hair has been at its same length for 2 years and I'm really trying to improve my growth. I've become overly happy anytime you post thank you for the videos.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

You are cute! Thank you so much for joining me on this journey. I enjoy the company ;)
Please keep me updated on how your hair journey is coming along. I am so interested in your results.
Have a great day! BIG HUGS! xox

[@seanasolo1952]

Its been two-years since I've been on my natural hair journey. I have tried a lot of products and I came across using natural oils that aid in growing natural healthy hair. I came to realize that coconut oil made my hair stronger, shinny, thicker. I wanted to keep up with ever changing trend of trying out every new product. I started using Olive oil in my hair regiment. That was probably the worst thing I could have done. My hair became thinner and was not as long or shinny as it once was. When i did use the coconut oil in my hair I also used castor oil. Those two oils did wonders. My hair was ruined. Lesson learned...never try to keep up with whats trending. If it's working keep using it.... If not find a better but less extreme alternative. Using excessive amounts of oils can really damage your hair. Alopecia is something that women in my family suffer from. I'm trying to prevent it from happening to me... but with my hiccups in world of natural hair care... I found myself aiding to the very thing I was trying to avoid.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Hello Hun! I am so sorry that you went through this. Please know that finding this out about your hair is a blessing. It is better you found it out now than later on in your journey. Please know that your hair will continue to flourish because you have figured out what to stick to. Trust me, in no time, your hair will be flourishing and long again. Stay encouraged and have a great day! xo

[@AntoniaRob]

everything you just explained is what I'm going through. Thank you will wash out my hair tomorrow and will stop using coconut oil for two months and see what happens!!

[@beyzee8516]

It is also important to have a proper discipline in your diet and activities. You don't just depend on the oil itself. First of all, check your shampoo. Most commercial shampoos contain chemicals that strip off the natural oil of your hair. You may want to substitute it with organic shampoos, or just go with the 'no poo' method. Secondly, you have to eat healthy. Make sure you are getting the nutrients your body needs for the day. Stop eating Mcdonalds or junk food in general. You may indulge yourself, but you may want to do it once in every two weeks. Also, stop drinking alcoholic beverages. You may drink milk, tea and MORE WATER (at least 2 liters a day). Thirdly, workout often (three to four times a week will do). Several studies found that working out can actually make you look younger and make your scalp healthy enough to promote hair growth. Fourth, have some decent sleep. While I don't believe in the 8 hours sleep myth, it is still important that you need to have plenty of hours of sleep. You'd know you have plenty of rest when you wake up not feeling sleepy at all. Don't stress yourself as it is the number one reason for hair loss and other health problems as well. FOR THE GUYS, stop masturbating. While sex is good for the body (and hair), the release of semen during masturbation can result to bad hair or hair loss in general. So you could either stop being a soloist and do the 'no fap' challenge, or just get yourself a partner to help each other. lol The bottom line is you have to be DISCIPLINED in every way to MAXIMIZE the result of the product you are using or in this case the coconut oil. Remember our body does not work independently. What you eat and how you live your life can have adverse effect on our body from head to toe, and that obviously includes the hair.

[@bessiewilliams8872]

I use coconut oil once a week for a oil conditioner with greasing my hair once a week. It's has really helped me and my family members with growing out our hair and maintain moisture. We don't put no water with it. Just it pure state. I love your channel very much.

[@Amarie2021]

I'm glad you made this! I also stopped using coconut oil a few months back after hearing it can clog pores.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Hey Hun! I am glad that you enjoyed it. I am also so glad that you have heard about the pore clogging and that you decided to do what is best for your hair growth journey. I really hope that your hair continues to grow and flourish. Have a great day! xo

[@nubahjoseph9588]

My fro is hugeeeeeee and very healthy due to coconut oil you can’t only use coconut oil you have to use moisturizer and water any oil makes your hair dry you have to keep your hair moist when using any oils

[@gioiamar5432]

I use coconut oil mixed with a couple of other oils it does my hair ok. Thank you for always giving great advice. You motivate me sis. May God continue to bless you

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Hey Hun! I am happy to hear that you are getting ok results with coconut oil. It is always nice to hear when your hair journey is going well. That makes me smile. :)
Thank you for keeping me posted and for your kind words. Have an amazing day! xo

[@PinkJaedeite]

Yes coconut oil does work sometimes and other times it doesn't, so I don't think we are getting the real one anymore, I stick to Olive oil, works best for my tresses, love the video and smilies my dear!!!!!

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

You are probably right! TFS & Have a great day! xo

[@nened6721]

I think there fucking with are black hair products now

[@skye6066]

I love to prepoo with coconut oil and I use it with some other oils to seal in the moisture all the time. It does harden my hair but I don’t mind. My hair doesn’t have any negative affects either.

[@SharonTodd0916]

Thank you Jass. I thought I was losing my mind.I couldn't figure out how everyone was getting the benefits of coconut oil but me. Thanks for your research. I believe now I know how I can use coconut oil, get the benefits of it and then wash it out.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

You are always welcome! I am so happy that you have figured it out and now you have a plan that will help you on your hair growth journey. Have a great day. :)

[@unpopularviews3376]

For everyone in the comments asking what other oils you can use instead. Some other options of light, non comedogenic oils that are also great for your hair and scale are Jojoba oil, Rosehip oil, Argan oil, Sweet almond oil, Grapeseed oil and you can even try Fractionated coconut oil (it has the fatty acids removed)

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Very helpful. Thank you so much for sharing. :)

[@mamamia1499]

I personally have always had GREAT,no,awesome results with coconut oil.
But I knew from the beginning the importance of using organic,cold pressed virgin coco-oil.
I must say however,that I've never tried those hot oil treatments,and I've never used it every day on my scalp,but sometimes once a week, sometimes once a Month. However I follow a very strict low thyroid diet that also increases hair growth and I can only recommend this diet or at least that you follow some parts of it and banish alcohol;caffeine; refined sugar;fast food/ processed foods and try to avoid chemicals and food coloring. I know it sounds harsh,but I literally don't get sugar gravings anymore, I've discovered just how satisfying clean eating is,it cleared up my skin-my skin glows from within,and there's so much DE-licious raw food "candy".-The top healthiest foods in this diet: green leafy veggies, [except for spinach],citrus fruits,nuts/seeds like brazil nuts,walnuts, almonds,chia-/flax-/& sesame seeds,avocado, white potatoes,onions, garlic,carrots,eggs,(lean meat/fresh fish)..etc..& loads of water,green tea,and the only GREAT oil that's recommended for cooking,as salad dressing & as sweetener in smoothies,is:Coconut oil.
-I hope you/your other viewers will find some of this helpful. The full 'low thyroid diet plan' can be found here on YT. Search:"Diet plan for Hypothyroidism".
Thanks for your time. xo

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Thank you so much for sharing! This is great information and I know it has helped me and it will help others. Have an amazing day! xo

[@MsFlamingFlamer]

I only use coconut oil as a prepoo. I let it sit on my hair for only a half hour before washing it to limit protein loss (I wash my hair a lot, every 2-3 days). I don't use it as a sealing oil.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Great idea! Thank you for sharing. Have a great day! xo

[@mzwandablessedbythebest2228]

The biggest issue with coconut oil is that it has the same effect as a non-softening protein. Hair gets dry, brittle, and tend to break because CO helps retain protein. Those (like myself) who are protein sensitive and NOT allergic to it, coconut oil is an amazing oil that will help keep your hair flourishing. I can't leave it in my hair, but, raw organic coconut oil (along with the Alopecia Free Oil Blend) is my staple mixture for my pre-poo scalp massage.
With respect to Aloe Vers, I am allergic to "prepackaged" aloe (gel, juice, water, etc.). However, I use the Aloe Vera leaf (purchased from the grocery store) to massage my scalp (after massaging with the oil mixture) prior to shampooing. I also use it on my face when my Lupus flares up. It's amazing!!

[@SuperSweetCitrus]

I used to use coconut oil in my hair in the 2nd grade and it kept my straight hair so silky and soft. For a few years though I stopped oiling my hair until I was in the 7th grade because I decided I wanted to grow out my hair. I began using the same the coconut oil as before and it worked wonders. In a little over a year my hair was at waist length. The summer before 10th grade, I noticed my hair began to fall in huge chunks in the shower and out. My hair was at tailbone length now and I couldn't quite understand what was happening. I'm not even kidding, I lost half the hair on my head. I wouldn't even braid my hair anymore because I was so embarrassed of how thin my braid would look. A couple months later I decided to chop it off back to armpit length. This helped with hair fall outside the shower, but my hair was still falling in clumps in the shower, especially after I would oil it. That's when I started oiling my hair less, and as you can imagine, less hair fall. Forward a year later to today, I rarely oil my hair and it's still thin as hell. For some reason though last night I put oil in my hair and when I was washing it out this morning, it began to fall out in big clumps again like it did a year ago. I want my hair to be thick again and I know oil is the best way to do so, but coconut oil isn't doing me good anymore and I don't know what to do :(

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Hello Hun! I am so sorry that you went through all of this. Please know that you are not alone.
Our bodies change as we get older and what worked for you in grade 2 or 7 may not be working now. Hormonal changed/stress/etc. First thing (if you haven't done so already) is please speak to your dr. and get blood work done. It could be something as simple as a vitamin or mineral deficiency or it could be something that needs more medical intervention. Please stop using oils, however, try massaging your head every night with warm olive oil (only). Do not mix it with any other oil. Sleep with your hair covered with a silk cap/scarf. Lastly, change your diet (if possible). Add more protein (chicken, quinoa), fruits and vegetables. Cut out fast food and processed food. This should help you. Please feel free to keep me posted on any results and please know that you are not alone. I am always happy to help you. Have a great day! xo

[@Coach_Jose]

Hair loss is due to Candida overgrowth inside your body. Thats what is causing the dandruff on the scalp and hairloss. Coconut oil works because it is an antifungal. He kind of fixed his hair loss that way but it would of been more effective in combination with an antifungal or antiviral diet.

[@brandiemedina6185]

Thank you so much for all of your informational videos! They have definitely helped me along in my natural hair journey. Please continue to create and post videos, they're a natural girls staple. By the way, I do hot oil treatments with coconut oil but I make sure to wrap the shower cap in a warm towel so that the oil doesn't end up on my face.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

You are always welcome hun! That is a great idea to keep the oil off your face. Thank you for sharing that!! As long as I am called to make videos, I will continue to help you all out, as I learn how to grow healthy hair. I will always appreciate your support and your encouragement. It means the world to me. Stay blessed and have a great day! xo

[@1985ccc]

Thank you for this video. I am a low porosity girl and have been using over the past year Alba botanica creme (fragrance free and contains coconut oil), since in the winter months my skin gets so dry and I suffer then from eczema , I thought it could be that I am allergic to parfume. However I have noticed that my hair got so much less compairing to when I bigg chopped. I used to twist my hair and by opening it I always forgot to open one twist, due to the amount of hair. I used to spend at least one hour twisting my hair when wet and now I spend like 30 min or less. Was telling my mom that my hair became less and the last months I have been searching for products without coconut in it, cause it make my hair feel stiff and tangled. My hair never really liked coconut, that's why since being natural I never owned a single jar of coconut oil. So you can't imagine how happy I was by seeing this video. I thought immediately that someone was experiencing the same as I did. Because coconut oil is in most of the products, I was wondering if I could use it when there is a little bit of it mixed in a product, but to be honest I am so afraid. I don't want to loss more hair. Since I am prone to eczema during the winter (on my face not on my scalp) months I was thinking about if the itchiness and rashes on my face are due to the eczema or the coconut oil, now that you mentioned getting bumps and things. Once again thanks for this video and would you consider using products where coconut oil is mixed in, since mayority of products contain it as an ingredient?

[@1985ccc]

Besides that last year in November, my aunt who works in a laboratory told me that coconut oil is no good, she said it clogs the pores and avoid the hair from growing. And I agreed for a part with her since my hair never reacted in a good way when using coconut.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Hello Hun! I am glad that this video has encouraged you and it has helped you to get answers to some questions that you had. That is always great to hear.
I would not use products that contain coconut oil, unless I made them myself. That way, I could make sure I am only using an amount that my hair likes. However, my hair is doing great without coconut oil right now, so I may just stick to the coconut oil free products for now. :)
Have a great day! xo

[@the1441]

I do use the coconut oil in a mixture, it's is organic, virgin, cold pressed, and sometimes I just put coconut oil itself on my ends. I just recently noticed shedding and that my scalp remains dry looking as well as pumps around my edges. Now that you've mentioned all of those things, I'm thinking that my hair may be retaining too much protein. What I think I will do is continue to use the mixture, but maybe only once or twice a month, warmed and continue to wash once a week and co-was with a reconstructor in between. I am trying to regrow my hair as well as my edges. I must admit also that I do perm my hair 2x per year. Thank you for your videos. Yours seem to be the most rational.

[@the1441]

Sorry, that would be 'bumps around my edges'

[@sayvenn3541]

i recently started my natural hair journey in march after my last relaxer. i made a shae butter mixture with castor oil and other oils and my hair was growing wonderfully. unfortunately my hair was breaking uncontrollably and i didn't know why. i figured more or less it was due to my hair transitioning and also at the time i was going through a lot of stress. in about May when i was going through my hair clumps of hair kept falling out (luckily it was mostly relaxed hair). around that time i was on instagram and found a post about coconut oil and at that time i remembered it is high in protein. my relaxed hair is very protein sensitive and very damaged so i guessed that's why it kept breaking off. I've stopped using it all together and haven't experienced any breakage. it currently in braids so ill see the progress after the take down.

[@a.bquiroz914]

Thank you for watching and connecting. Have a great day! xo

[@marifroggy]

I think the biggest problems with using coconut oil or any oil on your scalp is that you have to wash your hair more frequently. Some people can go two weeks before washing but some need weekly or less. it depends upon you rate of scalp skin shed. I have found if my scalp is dirty than using oil makes it itch and I have more shedding.
However, when I use coconut o or any oil right after I wash my hair I have no issue.
like I stated keeping the scalp clean on a regular basis (frequency depends upon the individual) you will not experience the effects.
the same issue the skin...if your pores or clogged and you are getting break out from coconut oil, it is because you are not thoroughly cleansing your face. You may need to use a face scrub, microdermabrasion, clay face mask regimen to ensure that your pores are adequately unclogged on a regular basis.
Using oil in an environment where by the scalp or skin is not adequately cleansed causes problems because I believe that coconut oil stimulates scalp renewal and skin renewal at a more rapid rate so there is a need for a more thorough cleansing process.

[@a.j.3088]

I think my sons have developed a dandruff condition from the coconut oil since that's the only new product I've introduced to their daily routine. I've always kept it simply with them. Shower, lotion skin, brush hair. Lately since I've been using coconut oil b/c I love the smell; rub just a bit on their scalp right before school. Suddenly they've developed "patchy dandruff condition." Sometimes UA-cam vids are great, but most times they aren't helpful at all. I keep running around like a mad woman buying expensive, label ridden, natural/organic oils from WholeFoods. It just occurred to me that my first "patchy dandruff" experience happened 2 years ago when I first applied 5 drops of peppermint oil and 2 drops of tee tree oil into my coconut oil. 2 weeks later I'm at the dermatologist freaking out. Just ranting :-) Thank you. This is some very good info

[@pharris6256]

Thank you for your videos. I appreciate you sharing your journey. This was a good video as I tried coconut oil and ended up with fine bumps on my face for 2 months! Yikes! Keep up the good work...and growth!😃

[@divasoftstep]

Coconut oil did not work for me. I had dry hair, shedding hair, itching scalp. I did not realize I was allergic until a few UA-cam natural hair gurus confirmed it. My scalp was also tender.

[@jennifersinger3493]

my scalp he was tender and tingly and sensitive I also had scabs and my hair started falling out in bunches. I thought it was because of weight loss, but it was because of coconut oil how did you fix the problem? Iwashed my hair with a vinegar water solution & shampoo also did a lemon honey solution. Waiting to see results, how long did it take you before you got results?

[@myuhdidas]

[@a.j.3088]

This video helped me realize I still have more research to do, but how can any research be effective if the person doing the research doesn't know what the heck she's looking for?!! I would have never known to look for that. Now I understand why my face is so irritated! I've never had skin problem; no dry or oily skin, no acne, black heads, but lately I've been experiencing this & the only thing that's different is that I use mainly coconut oil & sometimes castor oil. My hair used to thrive & was always so moisturizers when I used Miss Jessie's baby buttercreme (ridden w/ mineral oil). I stopped using & changed my regimen to a love Vera juice, rose water, & those 2 oils yet I walk around with my hair feeling like an oily(coconut oil) Brillo pad or a sticky (castor oil) dust magnet. So now, I switched to mustard seed oil. Lol! My hair feels like it's on fire! I'm having the same effects I get when I used to add vitamin e oil to my hair oils. I'm just an itchy head girl now.

[@wendygonzalez3475]

Miss Jessie's buttercream maybe ridden with mineral oil but you hair was thriving, use what works for you. I use castor oil on my scalp the night before I wash my hair because it's so heavy and sticky. My natural hair likes parabens and silicones, regular drug store stuff like Garnier and Pantene so I just go with it. I use oils like grape seed, avocado,argan etc that are found in some products I already use so I know I'm not allergic to them. Straight coconut oil doesn't work for me it has to be already in the hair product. I learnt by trial and error too. I hope your journey to healthy hair gets easier. Best wishes

[@zoejoyblack]

Omg I just did a video on this. Coconut oil does not work out for me. My scalp was irritated and my hair was so hard! Thank you for pointing out that just because a product works for some doesn't mean it works for everyone! I too am protein sensitive. Thank you for the info

[@picknick21]

Everyone really is different. I've been trying out many oils. Today I got myself Jamaican Castor Oil since people are so positive about it. A minute after using it as a hot treatment I started to feel dizzy, nauseous. Fell to the floor, my heart started to race. I quickle washed it out, took a nap. Now I feel better but still somewhat dizzy :P

[@mwfontenot978]

Very interesting. I may have this issue with coconut oil. I just feel like it doesn’t work like it used to when I first went natural. I shed a lot, stopped using it, still shedding, started using it again and still shedding. I also use Jamaican black castor oil. I think I will try the other essential oils that you mentioned in the other vlog. Thanks for sharing the info!

[@goddessenergyhealing8445]

now i just use it as a protein treatment 2 avocados extra virgin organic coconut oil (a bunch of it) lol 1 egg all blended together twice a month and my hair has very small shedding now and I've always had terrible shedding tried everything! this mix is the only thing that works for me my hair is growing so well now almost wanted to give up on my natural hair journey until i tried something different

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Very informative!!! Thank you soooo much!!!

[@anntoinette9216]

I'm so glad I watched this video, coconut oil used to worked and I didn't realise it stopped so much I just didn't know what I felt was going on and I was still using it, my hair felt dry and didn't lay well with it and I think it contributes to my itchy scalp because it never used to itch before and It runs down to my scalp and takes forever to come off.. Definitely won't be putting it on my skin or hair.. Just in diet though.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

I am so glad that this was helpful to you. Yes, C.O. in your diet is amazing! You are doing a great job! Keep it up. :)

[@imagemaker8268]

Thank you for this information. Sorry you had to learn from a bad experience. Unfortunately we all have to learn this way. I am happy to hear that your hair is doing much better. Knowledge is power!

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

You are always welcome and yes, sometimes it is hard to go through, but it was worth it. Now I can be here for all of you! Have a great day and stay blessed. xo

+AlopeciaFreeWithJass I too an suffering from a thinning hairline. It is very frustrating. I used to wear wigs but have since stopped..... it's been a year and it's still thinning 🙁. I've you Fertilizing Temple Baum, Rosemary oil, JBCO, castor oil and it's slowly growing back. It could be because I wear my hair up in a bun? I dunno? Hair care should be taught in school 😀 lol! God bless!

[@prettycurly9101]

Wow! Thanks soooo much for this video. My hair has been shedding and breaking off for some time now. What's crazy is that it's still growing though. This puzzles me. I've noticed that before the hot weather my hair was needing to be moisturized almost everyday. Honestly I use coconut oil everytime.Will definitely try something else because I used to moisturize my hair twice a week and that was enough. Thanks again!!!😊

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

You are always welcome :)

[@lvnmykinks]

Thanks for sharing this. I heard so much about coconut oil and I went out and got a big jar of it. I was using it for about a month and my hair felt dry and brittle the whole time. It finally started to break off and my skin on my face got so irritated, it looked like I had a terrible bout of acne, but it was in clusters..I was miserable and then it dawned on me that it was the coconut oil. I threw away that jar and have never used straight coconut oil on my hair again. I also try to stay away from products that have coconut oil, high on the ingredients list.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

I am so happy you found out what was causing it! I am glad it was only the coconut oil and that it was an easy solution (throwing it away). I hope your skin has cleared up now and you found a better oil suited for your scalp, hair and face. Have a great day! :)

[@kuroe-chan5190]

over the years coconut oil has been a back forth for me. but I tried it again couple months ago and its doing better. I did experience alot if hair loss since June but don't think that caused it.... atleast I don't think so....but this is something to think bout. mainly use it during my weekly prepooo treatment so I can wash it out. wow this is amazing thank you sooooo much!

Great Video! Thank you for sharing all your great insight. Sorry I'm just feeling a little disappointed in my own hair growth. I've tried so many things and the growth of my hair is still very slow. It's been about 5 months now and I haven't seen as much growth on my scalp. I'm just so tired of people and friends always noticing my hair like disappearing. Thank you!

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

it's also something that should only be used once a month. Tea Tree oil is bomb too and helps with those bumps.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Thank you so much! Great tips.

[@kittykattastegood]

some natural oils should not be used alone. like jbco should be used sparingly mixed into another oil. I think coconut oil should be mixed as well. I blend many oils together and my hair loves the mix.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Great advice! Thank you for sharing. :)

[@gracedean2957]

Coconut oil never worked for my hair. It turned my hair literally into a brillo pad. My hair would be extremely dry and brittle. I noticed the effects when I started to use coconut oil immediately. Shea butter also do not work for me and makes my hair extremely dry and brittle.

[@kiwe7511]

coconut oil alone makes my hair brittle so i mix it with olive oil, half and half

[@nadiam1798]

thank you so much with ur information, coconut oil works for me for about 6 month, but this week i see break out in my front scalp. Many many thanks ^^

[@thatlovelydancerIlao]

What a great video. Very thorough. Thank you

[@oliviabeebop1261]

Cocunut oil worked and works for me. It is imperative when purchasing these oils you are using TRUE ORGANIC products. I was recently out of the country and actually went to a place that made pure coconut oil and there is such a difference in the coconut oil from that experience to what I thought was pure coconut oil here in the United States. the pure coconut oil that I purchased out of the United States was a completely different texture and consistency then what I was used to it actually smells like coconuts if you open your container and it smells anything other than pure coconuts you're probably do not have an organic or 100% natural products another thing to look out for is does oil absorb meaning when you put it on your skin does it sink in or does it just lay there and within an hour you can still rub your hand and your taking oil off your skin if the oil is not absorbing into your skin then that becomes a problem because that will cause clogging and issues with breakouts. I actually find that with natural hair you have to try different things sometimes just like with lotions and you were to rinse your body gets acclimated to a particular item and that it no longer works so you do have to switch up your regimen and then perhaps you can go back to it at a later time. all essential oils are good depending on the person that's using it. what natural hair you have to be open and shouldnt pigeon-hole yourself into one particular brand or one particular product. you must branch out and see what works best for you. I know that creams won't work on my hair texture or my scalp or for my skin so I stick to oils. It is very important that you play around and you take note about what you're using and use one product at a time so you know what's working and what's not.

[@oliviabeebop1261]

Please excuse the typos I was talk texting but I hope my point came across

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

No worries. Thank you for writing to me. Have a great day! :)

[@jacksonmiriam]

I have used Shea Moisture products(There are quite a few that have the oil in it.) and I noticed that my hair was not working with my hair. Now that I have started reading, I now know that a lot of products have it in there. I am going to rid myself of coconut oil and work with products that do not have it in there to see if my guess is right. If I am right, then I am allergic to coconut oil.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

I hope that you are not allergic to coconut oil, but at least you've figured out what is not working in your regimen and you are one step closer to achieving your hair growth goals. Have a great day and please keep me posted! xo

[@norseczar27]

I started using coconut oil today so far so good

[@genoucha9396]

I'm a guy and my hair grows super slow. I'd say almost a year it only grew as long as from the tip of your nail to where it ends going inside your skin. I think that's not normal growth. could be because I'm a guy but I'm only 28 yrs old. i tried olive oil a few times so didn't really know if it worked but I'm should try it for couple months. i was gonna try the coconut oil which I don't think I'm allergic but the comments alone says it clogs. so, I became kinda iffy about it. what do you think?

[@unpopularviews3376]

Genou Cha Try castor oil, specifically the Jamaican black castor oil. This will help your hair grow and it's low on the comedogenic scale so it won't clog pores.

[@shidahb1641]

Genou Cha yes, i agree, castor oil is known to help. However, you should consider the possibility that the issue is not in your hair and scalp, it could be due to internal nutrition. I was struggling to grow my hair because my hair folicles were clogged with toxins from inside. The first thing i did was I changed my shampoo and conditioner. I started using aloe products, I now use Forever's Aloe Jojoba Shampoo and conditioner. Secondly, I have started the C9 program by forever living. combined, my scalp feels exceptionally soft and my scalp feels fresh and clean. After only a few weeks I've already noticed growth.
you can find both products at 971000711783.fbo.foreverliving.com and if you have any questions about how they worked for me you can email me a [e-mail]

I lost lie to you not 3 inches off my crwon 4 inches in the middle. pure deviststion. no mater what i used to moisterize or condition, NY hair just wasn't absorbing it. the one one only thing I introduced was black Jamaican castor oil...that was a no no for me :-( also beautifican suspected relaxed overlapping and Missinf step in treatment. so im starting over again fie the 4th time. I watch and listen to you faithful you are so informative. I know all products aren't for everyone but its sad when I do trial and error my hair suffers 😯

Hello Hun! I am so sorry that you went through all of that. I know how devastating hair loss can be. Please know that you are not alone.

Castor oil stopped my hair thinning and shedding. When I first started my hair journey two years ago, I was literally balled around my edges. Castor oil, not Jamaican black, but regular castor oil from the Vitamin Shoppe changed everything. My hair is so thick now I can't part it with a comb. Coconut oil tends to dry my hair out.

[@joyr5816]

+ladyhottness29 I don't like the smell of the Jamaican black castor oil and my hair has definitely benefited from the regular one. I used the L.O.C. Method and successfully changed the course of my hair loss. Hope this helps.

[@joyr5816]

+ladyhottness29 I gently massaged it in.

[@causeeffect7624]

Amazing on hair. Detangles and makes sooooo soft .
Three days in the smell is heavy/strong/potent and seems to smell as though it's gone rancid. What to do?

[@_LadyWhistledown_]

Also be careful eating oils that solidifies. For example, coconut oil or the ground beef that isn't lean.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Very True! However, C.O. is great to take internally and because of your body's heat, it will not solidify the same way as meat oils. Have a great day!

Great vid, mama.

[@AllAboutAliciaa]

I never knew that coconut oil can clog your pores. I've been hearing so much positive things about it (and I have been using it since the beginning of my journey) so I was shocked to even hear this. One thing I can say that coconut oil didn't do for was hair growth. I've honestly been at a stand still moment with my hair for two years now and I don't know if it is my regimen or the things I'm using because it seems my hair isn't growing or if it is growing it probably is breaking off at the same time 😞😪. Maybe I'll cut off coconut oil to see if that is the problem. I'm willing to tweak my regimen to fit my hair needs.

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Hey sis! I didn't know either! I am so glad that we both know now. I am so sorry that your hair seems to be at a stand still. That is a good idea, to cut out the coconut oil, and see if anything changes. If not, please be sure to connect with me on my website: www.alopeciafree.com.

I used coconut oil because my scalp started getting psoriasis on it I've had this since I was a kid so I decided to try a hot coconut oil hair treatment. and immediately when I rinsed it out hand fulls of hair were coming out. it is currently 5 days later my her is still falling out not as much as the first 3 days but still quite severely. my scalp stings also I just don't want to go bald and I feel like I'm right around the corner of that if this doesn't stop. I have changed my conditioner because it had coconut right away and I'm still losing a ton of hair.

[@frozen-marvel8301]

I'm late to this, but I tried coconut oil as a hair mask a few months back to help strengthen my hair, lessen frizz and perhaps thicken it. However, after only one use the oil slightly damaged it; there were areas that became very coarse and they would break easily. It's good that I only left it in for a couple of hours. My hair is wavy and frizzy, and also a bit weird as I have different textures throughout it. Luckily though this problem wasn't due to an allergy because I can use coconut oil on my eyebrows and eyelashes. Anyway, I was looking into almond oil and thought about perhaps mixing it with a little coconut oil. Do you know anything about almond oil (or another oil) that would give similar effects as coconut oil, but without damaging my hair? Sorry for rambling; I have a tendency do so...lol! Thank you and take care. :)

Hey girl! Lovely video :-) I have a question
My hair is lately breaking off, i dont know what the hell is happening, and i have a feeling its cause i've "overused" coconut oil, i have low porosity, and my hair isnt the thickest/ type 3C, every time i use heavy or thick products my hair hates it, it takes long time before it sinks into my hair and i just feel like im shedding loads of hair, but when i use thin products it works better. so now im trying to see if the coconut oil is the problem, im going one month without, and the problem is that all my hair products has coconut innit :( do u have any suggestion of good lightweight styler/butter, shampoo and conditioner with no coconut oil?

Thank you so much for your kind words. You are too kind.
The best way to know if it is normal shedding (as @LivOlane is asking) or if it is from the C.O. would be to stop using the C.O. for a bit and see if the shedding continues or decreases. That will help you to figure it out quickly. I hope this helps you. :)

What I don't understand is that coconut oil is used as natural product topically for severe acne. How is it that it can also clog pores? Thank you for sharing I just wanted some clarity on this

[@AlopeciaFreeWithJass]

Hey Hun! Great question! I understand your concern and confusion.
It might be based on peoples "skin" - dry, oily or "normal" .
I guess the key word is that it can clogs "some" peoples pores. There are many natural products that work great for some people and they don't work at all for others.
A great example would be that some people find that shea butter causes pimple/acne, but is has a 0 comedogenic rating. It works great as a moisturizer that is easily absorbed into the skin, but it doesn't work like this for some people. We are all different and not everything will work for everyone. I hope this helps you. Have a great day! xo
