Hi Jade, I have a question for you. In an earlier post (23 September; in response to Vitamins for your hair (Renita)) you wrote: **Minerals, especially calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron and silica (your body turns latter into silicon, the actual mineral and is usually derived from horsetail rather than silicon dioxide in the better formulas)I am puzzled as to how I am to read this information; are you stating that silica is derived from silicon dioxide as well? What is silicon dioxide?Thank you for responding, Jade.

Hi Jade, and hi to other posters,I was just wondering if Olive Oil can be used as a leave in oil treatment the same way Jojoba oil is used-just applying a small amount over dry hair. I recently returned from the States and could not find ANY jojoba oil! Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,Holly
