I made a potato curry for dinner last night. Not in itself Pretty Pretty Pretty worthy, but the can of coconut milk I bought to go in it just might be.

After making dinner I had what is technically known as a shit-load of coconut milk left over. I tried to think of something else I could use it for, but got stuck at “another curry”. Then, in a moment of happy coincidence, I came across a post at My Makeup Reviews mentioning using coconut milk as a hair treatment.

Ordinarily I would test something out before posting it, but as my hair is currently 3 centimetres long and undyed (a story for a whole other post) there isn’t really a lot I would be able to tell you about its effectiveness. Of course I’ll still be trying it out. Not because I expect it to improve the condition of my entirely undamaged hair–give me a year and I’ll get back to you on that–but because sticking coconut milk in my hair sounds like a fun thing to do. And gives me a chance to play Polynesian Princesses in the bath with my cat.

Has anyone tried this before? How did it work for you?
