Just a lurker with a question
Is grapeseed oil only used as a sealant or can it be used to oil my scalp ?

Grapeseed oil is sooo light that it is good for light sealing, but if you want to heavy seal it's not going to work. I think that the weight of grapeseed is perfect for the scalp. :)

Question for you oil/butter/pomade gurus:
Is it better to mix oils with conditioner or apply as sealant? I know for sure I like my grapeseed oil to seal when flat ironing, but I haven't found my staple use for sweet almond oil. Right now I just mix it in my hair grease. Any suggestions? Also, does anyone use hair grease now? And my Shea butter please. I just M&S with it nightly.
TIA

I got my Gleau in the mail today!! It has no smell to it which is a nice surprise. I plan on using it Thur after I CW. It says to use on dry hair so I guess that means I won't be sealing in my leave ins with it

LocLeeLaDee never tried to mix condish and oils except when DC'ing.

I found sweet almond great to put on top of everything for the great shine. Didn't seem to have much other use. You could mix in a small bottle with your grapeseed. Mixing oils can yield great results.

I mostly use grease for my twist outs or when my hair seems really thirsty.

Shea is fantastic. I melt it together with coco and mango butters. Its a really softening blend.

Will use Afroveda's Shikakaki Oil today with my leave-in. After it dries, I may use Vatika Frosting or maybe some LaVida's Juices & Berries Pomade.
