I tried literally hundred's of products and techniques before discovering what worked for me!
Leave in conditioner was ok but I found my hair still too dry.
The coconut oil was perfect for my hair type because i needed something which would lock in moisture, weigh the hair down a bit and not irritate the scalp.
Everyones hair responds differently to different things I guess.
Maybe you did use too much.
I only use a penny sized amount on my shoulder length hair distributed evenly and massaged into the scalp.
I do this straight after washing when the hair is still wet so that the oil can penetrate and seal in moisture.
Anytime between washes if i think it needs it i smooth through a small amount. But im talking a tiny amount. Just like a thin layer over my hands. A little goes a long way with this stuff.
I would also recommend using the organic extra virgin coconut oil instead of the plain stuff. A little bit more expensive but much better quality.
