If you had told me before I started my healthy relaxed hair journey that I would be using natural oils on my relaxed hair I would have laughed at you. Really, natural oils? Why would I do that? Little did I know then how beneficial using natural oils could be. Or that they would replace the drugstore serums and oils I was using at that time.

Some of my favorite natural oils fall into the non-penetrating category. That's because they don't penetrate the hair shaft but sit on it. Some of the key benefits of using non-penetrating natural oils on relaxed hair are
Sealing in moisture by sitting on the hair shaft
Scalp moisturization and soothing
Shine and sheen
Assisting with detangling
So what are some good non-penetrating natural oils for relaxed hair? Check out the infographic below to see my top picks and their benefits.
Castor Oil has been become a must have in my hair regimen. I apply it to my scalp several times a week now. Also I've never heard of Kukui Nut Oil. It sounds like something I'd like to try, where do you purchase it?
