Oil rinsed/finger-detangled with broccoli seed oil. I am not using any other product so I can gauge its behavior on my hair. Slippery on the skin, it does not penetrate like pumpkin seed oil does and is thinner in comparison. I can detangle under running water with it very well, and its slipperiness lasts longer than pumpkin seed’s. No greasiness or roughness. It does leave a trace film on the hair on the level of jojoba, not as thick as castor, hempseed, or safflower. After my hair dried, it feels like I can only go a day or two without hydrating my hair again, just like with jojoba. My scalp feels a bit tight. I think it may have to be either mixed with other oils or used along with aloe as a light sealer for twists. I will not be using it alone again.

The weak JBCO is next…

Tested argan oil around the back and top of my right ear. Got a bit of warmth, but not like the slow burn almond oil gives me. I think it is a go! Whew...

Tested tamanu oil on the top and back of my left ear (since I did my right yesterday). It acted like it was trying to make me itch. I told my body, "Nu-uh, not today, adapt!" I am fine - no rash, itching, or burning. I really want this to work for my hair, face, and neck.

Moroccanoil Treatment, Ingredients: Cyclomethicone, Dimethicone, Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil, Fragrance, Linum Usitatissimum (Linseed) Seed Extract, CI 26100 (Red 17), CI 47000 (Yellow 11).

If my hair likes argan oil, I plan to mix it with flaxseed oil and broccoli seed oil to get something similar to the oil treatment above.

Did an oil rinse/light finger detangle with apricot seed oil. So far, so good, nothing earth-shattering, no roughness or greasiness. I would place it a step above safflower oil for detangling, but a step behind safflower for conditioning film.

Tamanu is my favorite. I am highly sensitive too but have had no problems with this one. I put it on hair, scalp, face, neck and feet!

OK, I like apricot seed oil; my hair dried soft, smooth, cool and non-greasy. I plan to buy bigger bottles of the oils I like and make mixes and put them in rotation.
