How to use coconut oil for man shaving

Shaving

Men: Have you ever considered using coconut oil as a shaving cream? Some men prefer using this oil versus commercial shaving creams and they claim they would never go back! They say the oil lessens irritation on the face and neck, detoxifies skin as they shave, and moisturizes the area all at once. Also, the oil makes it easier and faster to clear razor blades as they are used.

A few say the only downside is that it's a bit messy and they have to wipe the oil into a towel more often. However, in their opinion it's a small price to pay for all of the other advantages.

Deodorant

Another way to use coconut oil is as a deodorant. After using it on your underarms they'll be left feeling soft and silky. For a homemade recipe that you can easily do yourself, check out how to make an all natural coconut oil deodorant.

Toothpaste

A really wonderful way of how to use coconut oil is on the teeth. There is nothing better for teeth especially if they're sensitive! Remember how the oil is highly antimicrobial? Can you think of a better way to clean your mouth everyday?

To make homemade oil toothpaste you just combine equal parts coconut oil, baking soda and water. For desired consistency, add water as necessary.

Natural Hair Conditioner

How many of you deal with dry, damaged hair? Have you ever had your hair highlighted or color treated? Do you use the blow dryer, curling iron or rollers on a regular basis? All of these things are great styling tools, but aren't the best for hair health. The use of coconut oil can change all that. Coconut oil for hair nourishes, protects, and revitalizes so that your hair is left soft, shiny and very manageable.

After you shampoo, just rub a little oil in your hands and massage it all over your head. Do not rinse out. If you are able to let your hair dry naturally, that's ideal. If not, blow dry your hair as usual.

You now have a non-toxic, all natural hair conditioner!

In addition to using it on wet hair you can also dab a little on dry hair as a styling gel. Just be careful-a little goes a long way!

Sexual Lubricant

Have you ever thought about how to use coconut oil... as a sexual lubricant? Forget jellies or creams that are full of chemicals. Coconut oil is completely natural, very soothing and works better than you could ever imagine. It's very practical, inexpensive and easy to use.

*Do Not Use coconut oil with latex condoms; it weakens them.
