Oil penetration abilities
  • Hi there! I'm new on the forum, but I just wanted to say I love this blog and I'm a faithful reader of it. I'm particularly interested in hair care. The article on May 14 ("Two Natural Oils That Make Your Hair Shiny & Strong") basically confirmed what I was thinking, considering I'm a devoted user of coconut oil for my hair and I've seen great results.

    Not that I was doubting The Beauty Brains' knowledge, but I always like to learn more so I looked up the article cited and found that it was incorrect (J. Cosmet.Sci 52, 169-184, 2001). That article only mentions coconut oil & mineral oil, not the other oils mentioned in the Beauty Brains' article. Was this an incorrect citation? If you have the actual article link, I would really be thrilled to read it.

    Thanks in advance and keep up the awesome work!
    Cheers,
    - Kelly
  • I was wondering about argan oil's ability to penetrate the hair as well?
