Different oils, different methods?

[Tiina]

I was just wondering if there is a difference in how well oils work depending on how you use them.

What oils work best for you applied pre-wash? Which work best applied after and which are good for hot oil treatments or deep treatments? Or is there no difference in the methods and if, for example, coconut oil is good for you as prewash, is it also good as leave-in?

From my personal experience any oil that's good as leave-in is also good as pre-wash and deep treatment, but not the other way around - some heavier oils are good for pre-wash and deep treatment but are too much for a leave-in... :)
