coconut oil on the scalp would be okay while pregnant, right?

I've been searching, can't find anything that says it would be bad. Just wanted to check with the oh so knowledgeable people here that might know something I don't. My scalp got wrecked by some shampoo a couple months ago and coconut oil was suggested to help with dry scalp.

Should be safe for use on the scalp, yes? Thanks :)

yup. very good to take as well. helps boost thyroid function and is a good source of healthy fats.

Great thanks! It smells really yummy, I just might have to try some :)

yup, totally fine. Jojoba oil is also great for your scalp, btw. i usually alternate between these two as a leave-in conditioner for my hair, and about once a month to do a heavy condition, leaving it in overnight before washing it out. works wonders!

Thanks Pixie, that's good to know! I've never never had dry scalp, so this is killing me. My head is itchy and flaky, I hate it!!! Stupid Herbal Essence shampoo. That was before I went natural with my hair products.
