Term	Definition
Vegetable Glycerin	Acts as a humectant. It draws moisture from the environment to your hair. If there is not much humidity in the air, the glycerin will just sit on your hair, so it won''t be very beneficial to use. If you live in a dry climate/low humidity area, dilute the vegetable glycerin to about 90% water to 10% glycerin. The humidity is high outdoors, a 75% water/25% glycerin mix is great. This item is highly recommended for nappturals. Be careful, it can get greasy if you use too much. You can purchase this from here or from health food stores.
