uses.
I personally use this as a cream on my hair strands to moisturise my hair when it feels dry.
On wash day,i use it as the Cream part in the LCO method.for those who dont know what the LCOmethod is,it a method of moisturising your hair and locking in that moisture.The letters simply stands for L-liquid or leave in,C is cream and O is oil.
You can also use this mixture for your scalp to help soothe scalp,prevent dandruff and promote hair growth.
