It's really dry where I live and I have been using coconut oil on my hair before I shower but it's not helping. What products could you recommend to make my hair soft and smooth instead of dry?

Instead of putting it on right before you shower, leave it on over night and wear a plastic shower cap while you sleep so it has more time to soak in :)

Morrocanoil mask, macadamia mask, the body shop ultra bliss mask. those are my top 3 that make my hair actually really soft. oh and what makes my hair suuuuper soft is a good serum! I really suggest the moroccan oil serum or the macadamia one or biosilk! ☺️👍

I usually leave the coconut oil on for at least 3 hours but thanks everyone!

Hey Karly!
One thing I would like to say is that coconut generally seals in moisture. So if your hair is already dry, without any kind of moisturizer beneath the oil, then the coconut oil will not help much. I HIGHLY recommend integrating a leave in conditioner into your hair routine , that can be used when you style your hair after you wash and condition. I suggest doing your leave in and then doing the coconut oil mask, which I believe should help that moisture from the leave in last much longer. Another thing I recommend is to use a moisturizing cream styler. I use she's moisture curl enhancing smoothie , but if you have have wavy or straight hair I would suggest something different as it can be heavy depending on the amount you've applied.

How often do you wash? if you are washing too frequently it can make it dry.
