I am severely allergic to tree nuts (so that rules out shea, cocoa butter, almond oil, etc) and coconut. I was so frustrated because EVERY BLESSED cosmetic/hygiene product, natural cleaner, etc has coconut in it so I started making my own almost everything using avocado oil as a base. It is the only carrier oil I use. I make homemade chapstick that gets rave reviews by anyone who tries it. You can also get avocado butter, which is solid, to use as a lotion. Recently, though, I’ve just been mixing a few EOs into some avocado oil and using that instead of lotion. I’ve also used avocado oil with EOs and soy wax to make massage candles. Hello, bliss! Additionally, I use avocado oil almost exclusively in cooking and even in baking. It can be pretty expensive elsewhere, but Costco sells a large bottle for $11 or $12.

I love eating avocado :) and to apply it in my hair, this is really interesting. I will definitely try this and hope to see good result. Thank you very much for sharing.
