Well,
My camera broke down and am no longer able to take any pics. :(
So, I am just going to list down the things that i put in my oil.
Hoping that the same helps.
My Coconut Hair oil recipe
1. Coconut Oil
* prevents protein loss in hair
* unlike most oils, it doesn't just sit on the outside of hair. It actually penetrates the shaft.
* because coconut oil is absorbed into the hair shaft, it is fairly easy to wash out.
2. Fenugreek seeds / Methi seeds
* Helps to prevent premature greying
* Induces a cooling effect to the body - note that this not any tingly kind of sensation usually got from menthol, it cools down the body
3. Rose Petals
* Rose petals tone and tighten the scalp with gentle astringent action. And of course, gives out a beautiful aroma.
4. Karisalankanni / Bhringraj / False Daisy
* prevents hair loss
5. Hibiscus leaves / Flowers
* is a natural shampoo plus conditioner.
6. Amla / gooseberry
* prevents greying
* induces sleep and helps in relaxing the body and mind
* Arrests hair loss
7. vembalam pattai
* prevents greying of hair.
* It turns the oil bright red and over time into a really rich thick maroon-ish oil.
8. Black cumin seeds
* provides lustre
* provides strength
9. Curry leaves
* prevents premature greying
10. vetti ver
* perfumes the oil, very calming.
Make sure that the leaves / flowers are semi dry.
Add all these to a bottle, preferably a glass bottle. Add Coconut oil till it stands just an inch above the quantity of the herbs added.
Leave it over night and start using for application on the scalp / ends or as desired.
Make a small batch - just to be used near to a month, till you understand how the oil works out for you.
Hope this helped.
