IS COCONUT HAIR OIL EFFECTIVE?

 



In my late 40s, my regular barber spotted a small patch of baldness on my head and recommended I regularly use coconut hair oil to rejuvenate that patch. However, he said its effectiveness depends how early and how frequently the user uses it and of course the older the user, the slower it takes to rejuvenate the missing hair as the flow of the blood on the scrap is not as responsive as on a younger chap.

I really could not be bothered if I was bald or not but I found that hair on my forehead always did not stay in place as they didn't have a strong footing on the bald spot. So since January 2024, I have been using it daily, putting slightly more than a capful on my palm then slapping it on the bald region. I proceeded to use a plastic massager and scrub the bald portion for a few minutes to wake up the roots.  Starting this year, I then wet my scarp to give my hair a Roaring 20s hairstyle.

What is very obvious is the grey hairs have much disappeared especially among the surface hairs and it is youthfully black. New hair have sprout on the bald region though some patchiness still remain. Hair on my forefront have lengthen and now stay in place but tends to split apart where the stubborn spot still occurs. At 70, I think my hair made good progress covering the baldness.
