May we suggest switching to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/us\/en\/product\/copaiba-vanilla-moisturizing-conditioner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Copaiba Vanilla Conditioner to boost those hair care benefits<\/a>?<\/li>\n<li><strong>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #b76000\">Avocado oil<\/span><\/strong> contains vitamins A, B, D, E, and beta carotene. It is deeply moisturizing for your hair and scalp. Change the amount of avocado oil in the recipe to suit your hair\u2019s needs.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #b76000\"><strong>Essential oils<\/strong><\/span>\u2014although we may be biased\u2014are the real winner here! You can tailor which scents you love with benefits that will suit your specific hair needs. As far as our formula goes, Cedarwood helps you show off healthy-looking hair, while Lavender helps cleanse when used on your mane.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-bottom:25px;width:100%;\"><div class=\"fusion-separator-border sep-double sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#e0dede;border-top-width:1px;border-bottom-width:1px;\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>What other hair care needs can we help with?
