I grow my hair long, currently when stretched a couple of inches below shoulder height, but it's not how I want it in that it is naturally curly where if I allow it to dry naturally it forms into vertical spirals which sit on the shoulder and after that once combed it is light, flyaway and tangly, where in the summer I have some success with oiling my hair with coconut oil.
But I can't use coconut at the moment because it is still too cold, I know when to use it when the oil is not solid in the tub as if I were to melt it and apply it to my hair it would go solid due to the cooler air at this time of year in the UK and that is not what I want.
At the moment I am using argan oil to control the mess, it works for a while but doesn't last long as the hair is still too flyaway but at least not as tangly and I have tried Asian hair oils and olive, they leave the hair too greasy looking.
I do dye my hair from time to time but only using henna and indigo, but persistant fly away hair is my bane, so any suggestions ?
(Technically my hair is oval in cross section and so curls naturally and I understand tends to be lighter and weaker)
