(NaturalNews) If you're looking for a deep hair conditioner that's chemical

free, look no further than virgin coconut oil. Coconut oil is one of the best

hair conditioners around and if it's virgin and organic, it's chemical free.

Coconut oil can literally bring softness back to your hair - and part of its

power lies in its disease fighting medium chain fatty acids. Coconut oil's

unique fatty acids have a very small molecular structure and just as they can

pass freely into the cell of a virus to destroy it, they can also pass easily

into your hair's cell membrane. This allows the nourishing oil to penetrate your

hair's shaft - and literally brings deep conditioning from within. While other

conditioners work from the outside in, coconut oil is able to work from the

inside out.

Another key benefit of coconut oil is that it contains plentiful antioxidants to

protect from free radical damage, including heat and environmental damage. Most

commercial conditioners use processed vegetable oils that actually create free

radicals and are completely stripped of their original antioxidant power.

Massaging the oil into your scalp is powerful too. Coconut oil is nourishing for

your scalp and because the oil is a natural antifungal, coconut oil can offer

relief from dandruff conditions. Dandruff is often caused by an internal fungal

condition that reaches the scalp, called candida overgrowth. With regular use,

coconut oil can kill the fungus in the scalp and dandruff issues can be

eliminated. Then, you can say good-bye to chemically oriented dandruff shampoos

that - like all chemicals - add to your body's toxic burden.

Because coconut oil readily absorbs into the skin, when it's applied to your

scalp, it also absorbs into your blood for a quick dose of a powerful natural

antifungal, antiviral and antibacterial - and one that germs and bugs don't

build immunity against. Most people would agree that that's not a bad thing to

be doing regularly in the days of super bugs and regularly compromised immune

systems. To enhance this effect, you can also use the oil on your entire body

instead of chemical-based lotions. Just apply a little head to toe after your

shower, rub it in, and let it absorb a few minutes before toweling off.

For deep hair conditioning, use a teaspoon or two on damp hair and leave it in

as long as possible. A few hours is helpful but if you leave it in overnight -

or even a few days - you'll really start to see results. This deep conditioning

can be done as often as once a week and you may need to wash your hair a couple

times to remove all of it. Know that coconut oil can stain fabric though, so be

sure to protect your clothes and bedding.
