I get mine from Camden-Gray on-line. They have all kinds, but I get their fractionated coconut oil because it stays liquid all the time, and for me, this is very convenient. I know the solid, pure kind is supposed to be better for your hair/scalp, but I got tired of having to melt the stuff every time I went to use it. So far, I'm going to stick with this kind.

NOW Virgin Cold Pressed Coconut Oil (food grade, orange label, 12 oz for less than 7.19 [i get a student discount]). Got it from a health food store near my home. I love this stuff!

Parachute. The one that comes in the blue bottle with the palm tree on the front. I buy it at my local Indian grocer.

Brwonie, I feel you on the "having to melt your oil to use it" thing. It can be a pain.

I also use Parachute coconut oil...but it has taken a back seat since I started using Dabur Anmol coconut oil. You can get both online at ishopindian.com

Garden of Life - Extra Virgin Coconut Oil from a local health food store. I have also seen it sold at sites online.

It is solid but once I put some on my hands it changes into liquid form with ease. I guess it could be the warm climate I am currently in.

I got a small bottle (I'd say 1 oz.) from a Islamic store for $3.00. The bottle is clear with no label, which made me skeptical. But the little Muslim guy told me it was pure, unrefined coconut oil from Bangladesh. I took his word for it. I'm pretty sure it's coconut oil because it melts easily and has a faint coconut smell. Anyway, I'll be getting my future coconut oil from Vitamin Shoppe.
