Never heard about using coconut milk, but coconut oil is supposed to make hair nice.

I'll make a recommendation: Never use coconut oil on your hair, especially vatika. Haha. I made that mistake and I'm still paying for it. It does NOT come out. I've been applying olive oil to my hair and washing every 3rd day for a month now and NOW it's finally coming out. It also dried out my hair horribly.

^wow...I've used coconut oil many times without any ill effects. It does make hair silky but I can't stand the smell

As for the thread starter never heard about using coconut MILK for hair..?

Straight your hairs ka kya matlab hua? Agar tumharay baal naturally curly ya wavy hain............to tum chahay jitna bhi coconut milk lagao gi.......ko farak nahin paray ga.

Coconut milk is helpful in stopping hair fall. It conditions and strengthens hair and makes it strong. And some say that it can promote hair growth.

But........it will NOT make your hair seedha/straight.

Whether someone has curly hair or straight hair depends on the natural shape of their hair shaft. And you can't change that. The only way to make naturally curly hair straight is to use a hair straightener.

A hair straightener can give you very nice smooth and straight hair.

Ive ben using vatika coconut oil for years, and i manage to wash it out no problem
Tho i wud suggest using shamppos that are more of a gel format rather than a creamy consistency, becos the gel onces form more of a lather and so its easier to get the oil out of the hair, I use herbal essences

Herbal Essences is nice! I've used it several times. Another good shampoo is Suave clarifying shampoo for oil hair. It's in gel format and does an effective job getting oil out and keeps your hair non-greasy for a couple of days (for me anyways, lol)

T-gel shampoo is best...

I've put coconut milk in my hair and it works really great (not for straightening but it makes it really soft and silkier)...it's also a LOT easier to wash out than coconut oil.

Coconut oil, Dabur Amla neem and lemon is great.. nourishes the scalp and the massage improves blood circulation. Coconut water/milk is known to help with people that suffer from hair-loss and bald patches..
