Santosh, that’s because oil doesn’t mix with water. You need some sort of emulsifier to make that happen. Shampoos have them but I guess you’re adding more ginger oil than they can handle. I’d suggest you mix the shampoo with the ginger oil on the palm of your hand instead. Hope this helps.

Success Wesley, great. Let me know how it’s working for you.

Monica, yes, applying coconut oil before washing your hair helps reduce the expansion of hair when wet. This reduces the damage that occurs while washing hair. But to do this, you need to leave the oil on your hair long enough for it to penetrate it. Applying it 5 minutes before you wash it is unlikely to do much good. If you want to try it, apply the oil on your hair at night, and wash it in the morning. Even then, though, if you use too much, your shampoo may not be strong enough to remove all the oil, which means that your hair may still feel and look a bit greasy afterwards.
