Order online :user: or visit your local pharmacy or health store’s laxative section and pick up a bottle. :auto:


*I recommend using 100% castor oil unrefined or cold pressed, none of that Hollywood Beauty stuff. :naughty:

-You may apply the castor oil to the length of your hair if you wish to seal.


- You may mix your castor oil with another oil if it is too thick for you, or if irritation occurs.


- At the end of the challenge you have 5 days to submit a progress photo May 8. 2010 - May 12. 2010.

I am in (already doing the scalp massage challenge) and already using Castor oil so this will be great to keep me motivated and I am always happy to be in with a chance of winning something, esp as I am in the use up your stash and purchasing powers have been limited .....

I will be using tropical Isle Lavender Jamaican Black Castor Oil 3x week

Just to check that this challenge is open to international members? :grin:

I think I need to join this challenge so that I can finally see what everyone is talking about! One question though, does our starting and ending photos have to be of straightened hair?

If you straighten your hair normally to do length checks then yes straighten it for your ending photo so we can see the progress you've made. If you would rather not straighten then it's not mandatory you can take your ending pic stretching your hair with your hands. :drunk:

yay! i want to join. I'll try and get my hands on JBCO by feb 8th but if not, I have regular castor oil from the bss that I can start with. That stuff is so thick and sticky, I may mix it!

does anyone know of any youtubes I can watch of people oiling their scalp?
I just want to see people's methods.
