I hardly ever remember to use Moroccan oil (has been stored in my bathroom for almost two years) and recently I had a lot of split ends and decided to 'smooth' them by giving this another try.. and no, it didn't work

, it actually made my hair intolerable even when braided just for the night. Only now I'm starting to feel my hair A LOT smoother after cutting those ends and applying Moroccan oil on a regular basis during the night. Then again, it's probably 60% due to the much-needed trim..
