Homemade Hair Oil

                   Hi Babes, sorry for not posting this long. Today I have for you all 2 recipes of hair oil to promote hair growth, combat split ends and stop hair loss.
Oiling nourishes the roots ans gives shine and healthy look to our hair. All types of hair must be oiled regularly. Dry, dyed or permed- dented hair best benefits from an oil application. You can choose from a wide variety of oils- almond oil, olive oil, coconut or aloe vera oil.
Application:- Take a required amount of oil and warm it. Dip cotton pads into the oil and apply to every section of your hair, from roots to ends. Massage well. Dip a towel in hot water and squeeze out excess water. Now wrap the towel around your head and leave on for 15-20 mins. Shampoo off.
Recipes:-
               Aloe vera oil:- Aloe vera oil stimulates hair growth, arrests hair fall and combats split ends. Take 250 gms of coconut oil and 4 big leaves of aloe. Aloe leaves are thick, succulent and have a transparent pulp. Slit each leaf and scrape out the pulp in a thick sieve and dip the sieve in a bowl of clean cool water to wash off any impurities. Use a liquidizer to make it into a smooth paste. Heat the coconut oil in a pan and add the aloe pulp. Keep stirring until oil floats on top. Strain and bottle the oil.
            Herbal hair oil:- Margosa leaves have cooling and medicinal properties. Curry leaves
prevents premature graying and skin eruptions, provides nourishment and restores healthy growth. Henna leaves are anti-fungal and has medicinal properties. Take 250 gms of coconut oil, 2 tbsp each of margosa leaves paste, henna leaves paste and curry leaves paste. Heat the oil in a pan and add all the pastes in it. Keep stirring continuously until oil floats on top. When cool, strain and bottle it. 
            These 2 homemade oil recipes suits all types of hair. Oil hair once or twice a week for healthy and shining tresses.
