The Wonders of Virgin Coconut Oil on Hair Growth
Remember my entry on Virgin Coconut Oil and Falling Hair? That was six months ago when folically-challenged me was at wits end trying to stop my hair from thinning out. I suffered from thinning hair since I was 42 years old and the cause is probably unhealthy scalp aggravated by dandruff. I was already thinking of buying a wig on the event that the bald spot gets more obvious. Today, I am happy to say to the blogosphere and the world, that my hair has more growth, is thicker and healthier. Hah, I sound like a shampoo commercial. *sways hair left and right* It looks like I have layered hair when in fact that’s the new hair growing. I attribute my luscious hair growth to the twice a week coconut oil massage on my scalp which in turn stimulates the hair follicles. Even my hairdresser noticed my new hair growth. Enough of those expensive hair regrowth tonic or hair spa !
I prodded my husband to massage virgin coconut oil into his scalp 5 months ago. for months, I noticed my husband’s pink scalp gleaming underneath his thinning white hair.
Sooner or later, you could get bald, I told him.
Not only am I happy to note I have thicker hair today, but I also noticed something odd with my husband’s hair. True, he has thicker hair but….
A growth of black hair emerges
part of his white hair has now a patch of black hair which was never there before (see the black hair in between the red arrow)
“hey you are revealing my secret!” he teases me as I take a snap.
His officemates notice the black patch of hair and has dubbed it the “racoon hair”
Could it be due to the coconut oil? Who knows? Maybe the dead hair follicles got stimulated, and nourished that it resurrected black hair?
The wonders of the coconut oil. After all, it came from the tree of life.

Oh Noemi, I’m such a VCO believer! I drink 2 tablespoons a day and massage it on my hair and body and face every evening. It really did help my hair a lot because my hair was falling out everytime I had it rebonded. Would you believe, it also removed some warts from my body. I just applied it frequently and it just dried and fell out. Normally, I would have gone to the derma and pay for an expensive cauterization. Have you read Coconut Cures by Bruce Fife? It’s a great read. I always panic whenever my supply of VCO runs out. Everytime someone comes here from the Philippines, my first bilin is always VCO.
I, too, attest to the healing power of VCO!!!!
@toe- I forgot to add that my husband applies coconut oil on his face. His complexion is so much finer and healthier. He even looks younger
@Eric- and we have to buy those stupid expensive products.
i’ve been hearing a lot of raves for the wonderful effects of VCO, but this is the first time I’ve heard of its effect on hair growth and warts. wow!i must try that too, instead of heading for the derma. thanks!
Wow, does this stuff really work? I sound like a bad actor in a commercial. hehe. Anyway, I’ve got thinning hair myself, I hate to admit it. People have even recommended that I buy horse shampoo like some Pinoy stars supposedly do. I’ll have to look into this.
Well I am very skeptical about this product …I used to take cvo every day for 1 year and it made me loose a lot of my hair
HI,
You mentioned that u applied the vco twice a week. Pls tell me how to apply before shampoo or after? To be left on the scalp for how long? I’m interested to grow my thinning hair too. Pls advise thanks!

I am loosing a lot of hair, I want to apply VCO but what are the instructions?
Do I apply twice a week before or after Shampoo?
and long do I leaveit on?
Please, pleaseeeee advise…
I was reading an article in Womans World magazine on coconut oil and hair growth. I am going to try this and see what happens. I would love for my hair to be a little thicker and longer.
hi… i am recently experiencing hair fall.
can i know how to apply vco on my scalp?
before or after shampooing???
tnx a lot!
I was wondering how to use the VCO for hairloss. Do you put in on after or before shampooing and how do you apply? Thank-you in advance. Also where can you buy it?
it really worked? i always had thin hair. I can see my scalp and its not nice because all the guys are so much taller than me and they see my scalp. Im only 19. I’ll try this ok? then i will tell you about what happened..
