Also note the consistency. The temperature at which the oil from the solid state becomes liquid, is 25 ° C. If the transition did not happen - something is wrong with the oil.

Some recommend the use of cold-pressed oil due to the fact that with this method of processing more useful properties are preserved. Such a little good only for external use, do not use it for food.

If you keep on it only a week and do not fix the result, the extra centimeters will return to the waist. Similar situation with hair. If you don’t care for them all the time, the problems will come back and maybe bring a couple of friends with you.

Love yourself and spare no time for your health and take into account the peculiarities of your hair when choosing care products. Be beautiful!
