If you're planning to oil your hair, put it on before you wash it.
Then add the shampoo BEFORE you wet your hair. No idea why, but it
works. Otherwise the oil's a lot harder to wash out, especially if
you went for olive oil. Coconut's much better. Jojoba's good too,
but pricey if you have really long hair as many of us here seem to. I
used to add a little oil to my henna, think it was olive with a dash
of jojoba; does anyone else do this?

Now jojoba is seriously fantastic for your skin. I use joboba and
hazelnut oil, together with varying essential oils, instead of a
moisturiser and it works a treat. Quickly absorbed, not greasy, great
stuff. I think the current essential oil mix is musk rose (Kobashi do
the world's most gorgeous rose oil, and incidentally are a superb
supplier), geranium, cedarwood, patchouli, sometimes a drop of hemp.
