Thoughts On This Homemade Hair Growth Oil???

I was using it twice daily for a few months and did notice that my hair seemed to be growing faster. I would massage it into my scalp in the morning and use it to seal my ends and I did the same thing at night before tying my hair down. I used pretty much her exact recipe, except I used lavender oil instead of rosemary oil.

I haven't been using it for a while because I've started using another growth aid (Xcel21) on my scalp.

I always wanted to infuse my oils with herbs. Henna might be drying for my hair. I didn't even know msm comes in a powder or that vitamin C helps msm absorb into your hair. I might have to create my own concoction. Thanks for the video!

Ok ladies I'm in for the challenge as well. I had to order a few things that won't be here until Monday. The first video didn't really have exact amounts, just curious what specific formula folks are going to use? Here is what I'm thinking:

4 oz warmed coconut oil
4 oz EVOO
1 teaspoon fenugreek powder
1/8 teaspoon MSM powder
1/8 teaspoon Vitamin C powder
4 teaspoons JBCO - it looks like that's how many teaspoons she used
10 drops peppermint oil
10 drops rosemary oil
10 drops tea tree oil

I think that's all the ingredients, I will infuse for 8 days. So if I make it Monday when my powders arrive I will start applying on Tuesday the 25th. Here is my starting pic.

I thought she included Henna as well? Also in the description box she mentions either leaving the Vitamin C out, or making it extremely minute in the mixture, she believes it dried her hair out.

Yeah I'm only going to use a small amount of the MSM and Vit C so as not to overdo it. I don't like henna in my hair so I'm omitting that one.

@Daina here's the recipe I made

3/4 cup coconut oil (warm)
3/4 cup evoo
1/8 teaspoon msm
1/8 teaspoon vitamin c powder
1/2 cup fenugreek powder
5 tablespoons castor oil
5 to 10 drops tea tree, peppermint, rosemary

I plan to add more msm every few days like she did.

Nice! I will up my MSM every few days as well. Thanks for sharing I will add more fenugreek too! Going to take a break from Xcel for the spring/summer and use this instead to compare growth rates.

There is no board.
I'm in! Funny. I have all these ingredients here lol. I did something similar long ago and infused in a stocking but mine had other herbs that were not in powder form. I also used a slow cooker partially filled with water set on low to speed up the process. I added the EO afterwards. Don't remember why I stopped using it.

Hmm after seeing this and watching her videos I'm intrigued

How long are you guys infusing for?
I've got a candle warmer that I use to infuse garlic into olive oil maybe I'll do that overnight and then a couple more days on top of that with no heat

I'm subscribed to her channel because I love her videos and her accent is cute. I just ordered some tea tree, lavender, and peppermint essential oils to make this oil. I have all the other ingredients in my stash already.

ETA:

Need to go look for a infusion jar. I wonder if a Mason jar will work? They have the ability to keep herbs fresh for months, maybe even years.

I want to join!!

I just watched this video a few weeks ago and was waiting for my next paycheck to get the MSN, peppermint, and tea tree oil. I'm Lo-po and my hair hates coconut oil so I was gonna replace it with Grapeseed oil. I'm wary about the henna (though I was really excited to try it!) but I'm gonna stay safe and leave that out too. I'll update when I get the rest of the supplies!
