Coconut Milk Powder


powder-like, fine texture, and white, coconut milk powder is manufactured through the spray drying process of raw unsweetened coconut cream.....coconut milk powder is a good substitute for fresh coconut milk...usually canned coconut milk should b refrigerated after using, & it usually keepz 4 a few dayz up until about a week or so...but the powder form iz ready 2 use just by adding hot H20...although i have yet 2 try thiz, i think thiz would make az a great alternative 4 those that want 2 try coconut milk az a conditioner, but dont want the drippy, runny, mezz....it would also b of benefit 4 those that wanna have betta control of the portionz they use, so that they wont have 2 toss it out if itz not used up n itz entirety.

Honey


Honey iz known 2 b a humectant & itz also said 2 help dry hair by adding moisture & shine...supposedly u have 2 buy it n itz *raw* form 2 achieve itz full benefitz...hmmm, i waz thinking watz the dam difference???...honey iz honey rite?...well thiz iz when u start 2 get all technical with the chemical processing that it goez through & all the crap that iz removed from it...blahblahblah...i myself have used a few different honey recipez, but i cant really say whether or not it made my hair n e different n termz of shine...az far az moisture goez, my hair iz alwayz dry, dry, dry...so i think i would notice if it waz retaining n e moisture from the honey...u can usually get *raw* honey from ur local health food store, & ive also bought some from the vitamin shoppe....it can b a bit pricey, so once again u may wanna shop around 4 the best deal n town...n my opinion, i think honey iz honey & u can probably reap the same rewardz or benefitz by using that little old bottle thatz shaped like a bear @ ur local supermarket....here'z a quick recipe: 1/2 tablespoon of honey & add it 2 some conditioner; mix well then apply it 2 ur hair...apply a plastic cap & let it sit on ur hair 4 15-20 minutez...rinse thoroughly & style az usual...good luck!!

Coconut Milk


Coconut milk is a milky white cooking base derived from the meat of a mature coconut... it shouldn't b confused with coconut water (coconut juice), which is the naturally-occurring liquid found inside a coconut...coconut milk iz packed with protein & oilz that will leave ur hair feeling stronger, healthier, & looking shinier...i recently started using coconut milk az a protein treatment on my hair...i take 1/2 a can of coconut milk, some conditioner, either some avocado or coconut oil, or sometimez both....combine them 2gether n a bowl & mix them up....i then apply thiz 2 dry hair, cover with a plastic cap, & sit under my heating cap 4 about 15-20 minutez...after that i rinse it out with warm water, & continue with my regular hair routine...now thiz mixture can b a tad bit runny, so u may wanna have a towel or 2 handy 2 catch the run-off...the plastic cap comez n handy, but if u dont have that then u may have 2 improvise & use a plastic bag that u can secure with a clip...i found that the *Thai* brand, iz a little bit more expensive, but im told n some casez itz betta bcuz itz a thicker consistency...ive found it @ walmart 4 about $1.55 maybe...cant remember...now ive seen it n the health food store 4 dam near $2.25 & i had 2 do a double take...so make sure u do a comparison when shopping around 4 thiz product...u can also find coconut milk @ ur local supermarket...ive noticed a subtle change in my hair & i will continue 2 use thiz n my hair care regimen.
