Hollyhotpants
I have just started to use these wonderful nuts and have today washed my hair in the liquid for the first time.
I am an eczema sufferer and my scalp can get very sore - I admit to being sceptical but ... it has worked. I washed both my hair and face and for the first time in well over a year I have not scratched and made myself bleed, even my face feels fresh, clean and the sore dry patches have disappeared. GO ON TRY IT!!!!!!!!!!
