Can I apply little coconut oil after bath and go out in the sun?

k_koolkill

On the days that I dont shampoo and wash my hair, can I apply little oil and go out to avoid dryness..Or will the oil attract dust and be harmful for the hair in the hot sun outside ??

Answer
Of course! coconut oil is very good at locking in moisture and moisturizing hair/ skin.
The coconut oil will actually protect your hair, unless you put dirt on it, it shouldn't get dirty.
coconut oil has many benefits for hair

What is the best home remedy organic...?

JIM

that has multiple benefits such as apple cider vinegar has like tons of benefits like its a detox, it fights acne, it helps you lose weight and so on. Anything like that or coconut oil that I can use for acne, and better skin complextion and so on.

Answer
The less products you use, the better for your skin. Treat your face like your skin. Use Bath wash like Suave Bath & Body Gel, use a washcloth. Treat your face like the rest of your body, take a shower everyday or wash your face everyday.

The secret is keeping your face clean and oil-free.

Acne medication could worsen what ever allergies you have, so instead of trying out one product after another, you're actually spreading it around. Example: ProActiv contains a known carcinogen, at a percentage known to promote skin cancer.

IF A PRODUCT IS LABELED "ALL NATURAL" OR "ORGANIC," IT'S PROBABLY HYPOALLERGENIC.False
Remember, poison ivy is all natural, too! But you probably don't want it on your skin. It is very possible to have an allergic reaction, or other irritation, from products labeled "all natural" or "organic." For example, lanolin, from sheep's wool, is a common natural ingredient in some moisturizers that sometimes causes allergic reactions.

Do you want multiple benefits? Increase your fresh fruits & vegetables 3-5 servings per day, you'll get all your benefits 100% and decrease your food intake that is fattening for lose weight & exercise more.

do cuts that are sort of deep close up?

ME N ME!

so my cat scratched me a few weeks ago like i think 2 weeks and anyways it wasn't deep enough to need stitches but still it bleed and now it itchs so i think its healing but the cuts wont close!! and the skin around the cuts peeling off or something. you could see the marks clearly so will it close up completely soon?

Answer
You might want to try making a salve out of Virgin Coconut Oil Epsom Salt in it, to put on it:

"Coconut (Cocos nucifera)"
- The Tree of Life
- Coconut In Traditional Medicine
- Coconut In Modern Medicine
> Coconut Oil
http://www.coconutresearchcenter.org


You *might* want to try soaking it in some water with Epsom Salt dissolved in it.

Scroll Down to the bottom of this web-page & read the Cautions there, though, because it warns that using water might be contraindicated:

"Epsom Salt"
- Soothing to Sore Muscles in the Bath
- Toxic to the Kidneys If Taken Internally
http://www.naturalstresscare.org/EpsomSalt.aspx

"Epsom Salt Uses & Benefits"
http://www.saltworks.us/salt_info/epsom-uses-benefits.asp


Since Coconut Oil is quite good at killing various types of infection, you may want to use it alone, or, a salve with Epsom Salt added to Coconut Oil (equal parts of each), in order to keep from getting your wound wet, since it sounds like it might be not healing right already, from your description. . . . Epsom Salt is good for infections, too.

(I used this salve on cacti stickers in my skin . . . it was callousing over them, so I pulled the callous off & applied the salve. A day or so later it had another covering on it, but when I pulled that off, the stickers came out, too! Then it healed perfectly, and in a short time.)


Keep the area dry, & allow the air to get at it. Plastic bandages are not good because they keep the sin moist & do not allow air to freely 'bathe' the wound. If the cut is deep you might want to use a butterfly bandage to hold the sides together, though.
