"The next product I'm going to talk about is one of the first natural oils. Sweet Almond Oil is a great oil to cook with, to put over a salad, but it's also very good for your skin, your scalp and your hair. Almond Oil is slightly thick, buts it's thinner and lighter than Olive Oil. As you can see as we pour just a little bit out onto this plate. As it drips, it drips out very fast. It's a fairly light oil, very sweet and it moves around quite easily. You can see how quick I can run my fingers. This is a good preparation oil for the scalp. You can run this throughout the hair as you're preparing to braid and it's also good for afterwards. If you just want to stroke it over the entire head of braids just to get it to go down in there. This is great for hair, great for skin, great for scalp and it smells really good."
