Good Hair Oil. Review on Parachute Advanced

Helena Rubinstein had a favorite saying: “Don’t put anything on your face that you would not put in your mouth”.Helena Rubinstein was a Poland origin American cosmetics specialist and industrialist and at the same time was founder of Helena Rubinstein Inc in USA.

According to me Hair Oil should be treated as a medicine. 75-80% of MSians may be spending much time to manage their hair. Issues are many; falling hair, split hair, dandruff, dry hair, too oily look etc. Change of working condition, atmosphere, so called tension and medication due to ill health, all affects your hair. Your favorite shampoo is also include in the list. So it is not that simple like they say in Hindustan lever ADV or any other ADV of similar nature. But if you want to have solution for such problems, there are 4000+ years old prescriptions.

Well, topic is Parachute Coconut Oil. I mean pure and virgin coconut oil. Coconut oil is being used as skin care and hair care for centuries in some parts of this world and India is no exception. Coconut oil can provide moisturizing benefits for the skin and act as a hair conditioner. Almost all commercial products of today for moisturizing are water based product and there effects are limited because water evaporates fast and live skin high and dry. But think, if it is something like Coconut oil which does not evaporate so easily will work for longer time for your skin or hair.

You know, smaller molecular structure of coconut oil allows it to penetrate through the skin and makes coconut oil perfect oil for dry, rough, very unruly wrinkled skin or hair. It penetrates the skins and remain there for long. So skin get protection for longer time. In case of hair health of scalp is very important. Massaging the scalp and hair with warm oil is the best way to nourish the scalp. Not only does the massage work wonders for your skin and hair, but it also relaxes the mind and nervous system.

As per Indian literature, there are three types of hair-

Vata - hair is thin, dry and frizzy and prone to split-ends. Choose almond oil / sesame oil.

Pitta - fine hair prone to premature thinning or graying. Coconut oil is the best.

Kapha – Hair is thick and oily. Sesame or olive oil are the best.

According to me, pure coconut oil works in all cases. Please avoid if you are allergic to it.

As additives in coconut oil Rosemary and Lavender are excellent for all types of hair. Rosemary helps stimulate hair follicles to promote growth and slow down premature thinning and graying. Lavender stimulates hair growth, balances oil production and replenishes hair and scalp. Jasmine helps to ease stress.

PourParachute Coconut oil or any other good quality oil into a bowl and warm it gently. I prefer to keep it in bright sunlight(if available) in a steel bowl and warm it. Massage your scalp gently with warm oil. Wait for an hour before washing your hair. Best is, if you can leave the oil overnight. I suggest mild shampoo for hair wash. It is better if you manage to get this massage done by someone rather than doing yourself.

Some benefits if you do it at least once a week -

1. Coconut oil massage lubricates and conditions the scalp to prevent flakes and dry scalp. Relax the scalp and increase softness.

   
   




2. Enhance blood circulation. Strengthen the roots of the hair and nourishes the hair.

   
   




3. Soften and condition of hair making it manageable in case of long hair.

   
   




4. Spreads the natural oils of hair that improves luster

   
   




5. Protect hair from the strong sunlight, harsh weather condition, use of harsh shampoo

   
   




6. Replenishing and rejuvenating for dry, damaged hair, and improve quality of hair by preventing brittleness and split-ends.

   
   

Experts can write much more than what I have written. From net one can collect more information. One thing is sure, coconut oil helps managing hair and skin. I believe, Parachute coconut oil is good without any harmful additives. I am using it since long after spoiling my hair with hi-tech hair cares stuff. Most of the skin cares, hair care stuff are water based or having synthetic chemicals/ oils for moisturizing skin. Water evaporates very fast so effect is very short, chemicals have its own harmful side effects.

Parachute coconut oil is available in different packs. Bottles are user friendly with flip-top with narrow mouth. I prefer a smaller one so that I need not use oil older than a month after opening the bottle.

Take Care and Have a Nice Day
