Precaution
Anytime you decide to use a natural conditioner on your hair, it’s important to check if the ingredients you use have the potential to cause an adverse reaction. So, always do a patch test by applying a little bit of the natural conditioner at the nape of your neck or on the inside of your arm and leaving it on for an hour. If you see redness or irritation developing, do not go ahead with using it on your hair.
