I Love Awapuhi!

[Guest guest]

Hi Folks,

 

Its been a busy day for me on and off line and I am getting ready to

enjoy a relaxing Saturday evening (now that the kids have gone to bed)

which will include a stiff drink and a warmed oils hair treatment -

containing awapuhi extract - Vanilla Bean infused Virgin Coconut Oil

with Awapuhi extract added to it to be exact!

 

I love awapuhi! Maybe more accurately I should say that my hair loves

the awapuhi, which in turn makes me love my hair, and that in turn makes

me love awapuhi

 

An article I read recently about Awapuhi on a Hawaiian Plants Info web

site says:

<http://www.canoeplants.com/awapuhi.html>

.... perhaps the most common use of `awapuhi kuahiwi is as a shampoo and

conditioner for the hair. The juice present in the mature flower heads

is excellent for softening and brings shine to the hair.

The full article can be seen at: http://www.canoeplants.com/awapuhi.html

 

They are not kidding about how soft and shiny it makes hair! My hair now

has a shine like they Photoshop onto the hair shown in those product ads

in magazines! {grinz}

 

It appears I can grow awapuhi plants here too - very cool

 

Have a wonderful weekend folks! I'll be at my kiddo's Tae Kwon Do

tournament ALL day tomorrow, so I'll see everyone on Monday

Hi Chris:

 

I have very curly hair, which means it is dry and fragile and usually

doesn't shine. I have to use mousse to hold the curls together. I'm

just wondering if anybody who uses awapuhi uses mousse over it. Often

the mousse gives me a great shine, but not spectacular. Shiny curls

rock, and I'd like to have big ol' shiny ones all the time. Just

wondering if the mousse would cancel out the awapuhi or if they would

compliment each other.
