The coconut oil works by penetrating the hair shaft. Hair is a hollow tube so the oil penetrates right through to the hollow space. It fills up the hair shaft and makes hair look more dense – giving it more body. It also gives each hair strand extra protection benefits. Hair becomes damaged because the hair fibers will constantly swell and shrink due to water retention and absorbtion. When the coconut oil penetrates the hair shaft, it prevents this swelling from occuring and therefore reducing the chance of possible hair damage. Many people lose hair from protein loss which results in weak and unhealthy hair. The coconut oil helps in significantly protecting hair against protein loss. If your hair is dry and weak, it means that internal moisture is not abundant. The oil will act as a seal from the outside and this prevents the internal moisture from escaping. Coconut oil conditions the hair from within, supplying moisture to hair follicles which protects the hair from heat and the environment. The oil contains antibacterial properties and nutrients as well as being very nourishing to the scalp by stimulating blood circulation. It can help control cradle cap and dandruff.
