Does your hair like avocado oil?

Have you used avocado oil in your hair; did you like it? Did you need to mix it with anything for good results?
My favorite conditioner in the world has this oil pretty high in te ingredient list so I bought some to see if that's what my hair likes so much. That was how I found camellia oil so I am hopeful!

I love avocado oil! It's my favorite oil. I use it as a leave in or sometimes for scalp massages. I decided to order a bottle of it when I saw it at a health food store. I used Garnier Sleek and Shine conditioner, which has avocado oil in it, for like 7 years straight so it made me want to try it by itself. Keep it in the fridge though. It tends to go rancid fairly quickly. Buy it in small bottles too unless you know you're going to use it a lot.

My hair loves it. I'm giving coconut a try right now and avocado has been a challenge to find locally, but I love it.

I've never used the oil but I did put mushed up avacado in my hair once....big mess....crunchy hair...huge disaster.

My hair did not like it at all so I never bothered to try the oil by itself.

It does nothing for my hair. My skin likes it though. Doesn't break me out.
As allnaturalboy said, goes rancid quickly. I will not repurchase.

I use it sometime but not very often. My favourites is olive and coconut oil.

It's one of my favourite, along with Camellia and Coconut. I find it very nurturing feeling. I don't mix it with anything - just apply a couple of drops on dry hair.

My hair loves it. Sometimes when I braid my hair I massage it into the ends and the braid and it's practically absorbed the next morning

For me, it doesn't make my hair greasy either, so I just love it.

I like it and so does my hair. Although it does turn into a hair gel with certain conditioners( I CO only). I've had a problem with more of the natural conditioners and it combining to make a hair gel :-/ If I use something that isn't so natural then it washed right out....

My hair and skin love avocado oil. I add some (organic avocado oil) to my eye cream and to my face cream. Also, in my home-made-spray-on-leave-in-conditioner I have Camelia, Tea tree (E)), Palma Rosa (EO), and Aloe Vera gel mixed with Aubrey Organics conditioner and distilled water. It is better than any gel! It leaves my hair thick and lovely, and I have fine hair.
