Combing or brushing your hair 5min per day and applying coconut oil for water protection and additional shine/softness saves time and money and produces much better results than conventional hair care products.

I only resort to using shampoo in extreme cases of dirt/oil/wax build up and I make sure the ingredient list of the product is as short as possible. I only used it 2 times during the last year #NoPoo

Do you apply the coconut oil daily too? Or just brush daily?

beef dripping is a better fat to use for this, it is much harder (higher stearate content) and provides some rigidity that improves the way your hair falls (aka body)

cacao butter is pretty good this way too but the price of that is about to go to the moon so i'd suggest go with dripping

coconut oil is not bad, but it's not as good as these two

I don't brush anymore because cleaning the brush is annoying. I'm using a metal comb everyday and apply coconut oil every 2 or 3 days but this is highly dependent on each persons needs. If your scalp produces a lot of sebum you don't need coconut oil at all.

Back when I used a plastic comb I would get dry and rough hair ends after a few months. I don't have this problem with my metal comb, don't know why this is the case though. I read it distributes oils better.
