Is Petrolatum Bad for Hair??

Danniigurl

Hi! I recently got a product with petrolatum in it called "Jojoba Oil Organic Root Stimulator" to grow my hair out because i heard jojoba makes hair grow but after researching I also hear petrolatum stunts the hair growth. I figured the only way i would know is to ask the Beauty Brain scientist if this is True?? Does Petrolatum really stunt your growth??

I am not a beauty brain, just a forum member but I did find this article: http://www.ehow.com/about_5503538_petroleum-hair-growth.html

Searching this site gave me this : http://thebeautybrains.com/2007/05/14/two-natural-oils-that-make-your-hair-shiny-and-strong/

I personally use coconut oil in my hair.

I would be interested to know what the Brains have to say on the subject of petroleum though!

This will sound rude, so please forgive me--but in all honesty, I would suggest not posting the same question 3 times. Maybe it was technical difficulties? Sometimes that happens. If not, though, I think most people would prefer that you just post once and await a response. What you can do--if no one has responded after a week or so, just add a comment to your original thread that says "bump," that will bump the topic back to the top of the list again.

Howdy, Stranger!
