Hydrated hair in the Caribbean? Both of these are possible if you use <strong>coconut<\/strong>. We are sure you have heard of this tropical fruit with its intense fragrance but what do you actually know about this fruit? Yes, it was the main star of the film, \u201cCast Away\u201d alongside Tom Hanks, but, as well as that, it also contains lots of natural benefits for your body and health. The best thing about it is that you do not even have to move from your <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/en\/dominican-republic-resorts\/\">5 star hotel<\/a><\/strong> in the Dominican Republic to enjoy it. <\/p>\n<p>Skin is the largest organ of the body and so it is essential that we keep it hydrated and cared for. Our day-to-day responsibilities sometimes make it impossible to look after our body properly. Luckily, this is when holidays come into the picture as they are the perfect reason to restore good habits. Can you imagine yourself enjoying a massage with <strong>coconut oil<\/strong> and the sound of the waves in the background?<\/p>\n<p>Having been cultivated since the 16th century, coconut oil contains a lot of different <strong>medicinal properties<\/strong>: from deep body &#038; hair hydration to helping to prevent infections and providing benefits for the immune system. Gently massage the oil into your hair or onto your body to get rid of dead skin cells that keep the areas dry and coarse. It also alleviates and prevents the appearance of stretch marks and scars.  <\/p>\n<p>If you want strong and healthy hair then this fruit is the solution. Thanks to its incredible <strong>fungicide properties<\/strong>, coconut oil is great for getting rid of dandruff. By applying it from the root to the ends, your scalp will become smoother and shinier which will help to prevent dandruff. Opt for the scalp massage at our spa in the Dominican Republic and enjoy healthier hair. You will love the results! <\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/beneficios-del-coco-para-tu-cuerpo-bahia-principe-580x358.jpg\" alt=\"The benefits of coconut for your body\" width=\"525\" height=\"324\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5376\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/beneficios-del-coco-para-tu-cuerpo-bahia-principe-580x358.jpg 580w, https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/beneficios-del-coco-para-tu-cuerpo-bahia-principe-1200x741.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/beneficios-del-coco-para-tu-cuerpo-bahia-principe-1140x704.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/beneficios-del-coco-para-tu-cuerpo-bahia-principe-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/beneficios-del-coco-para-tu-cuerpo-bahia-principe-768x474.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.bahia-principe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/beneficios-del-coco-para-tu-cuerpo-bahia-principe.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For the best hydration for your hair, you have to be consistent.
