Hydrates Coconut oil is amazing at penetrating hair follicles and is therefore hydrating and conditioning from the outside. In fact, the oil is so hydrating that it even protects follicles from heat and environmental damage. Boosts blood circulation.

Each of these play a key role in keeping hair soft and supple, and iron can even eradicate dandruff from the scalp. Antibacterial Bacteria can be a problem on both the hair and the scalp. However, coconut oil contains antifungal and antibacterial properties, which protect against dandruff and lice, which can affect hair growth.
