| Content | | Want longer, healthier hair? High quality coconut oil infused with a blend of Amla, Bhringraj, Hibiscus, Aloe & Licorice (Yastimadhu) to promote healthy hair growth while conditioning. Made with copious amounts of the finest ingredients and made without cheap fillers.
What's in this, and what can it do for my hair?
Amla:
Used to promote healthy hair growth
Conditions to help prevent breakage
Conditions to discourage split ends
Used to imparts shine to the hair
Rich in antioxidants
High in Vitamin C & Fatty acids that nourish hair follicles
Used for centuries by Indian women as the secret to their beautiful hair (the most sought-after hair in the world, by the way)
Bhringraj:
Traditionally used to promote beautiful, bountiful hair
Hibiscus:
Rich in Vitamins A & C
Used to promote bouncier hair
Licorice (Yashtimadhu):
Traditional Indian hair growth herb
Used to improve hair
Ingredients: Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (Organic Fractionated Coconut) Oil, Phyllanthus Emblica (Amla), Eclipta Alba (Bhringraj) Powder, Hibiscus Rosa Sinensis Linn (Hibiscus) Petal Powder, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe) Leaf Juice, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Powder.
I make this blend using the somewhat tedious Ayurvedic technique of making a Kashayam. This is vegan, made without animal products. The finished product is a beautiful, greenish tinted oil that does not color or stain hair.
What can you do with this oil:
Hot oil deep conditioning
Daily scalp massage
Use in daily styling
Use on ends to protect against dryness and breakage
Specs: translucent green-brown colored oil- it is fractionated so that it stays liquid. Comes in a squeezable plastic bottle with a spout for easy application to the scalp. This oil is on the lightweight/thinner side.
How to use: you may use this to condition your scalp and hair, as often as you like. *All bottles contain 4 fluid ounces, so you will get every drop you paid for, but bottles will not be filled to the top.
For best results, use daily by massaging into the scalp, lubricating the ends of hair as needed. Even better results can be achieved when using in conjunction with GHE (the greenhouse effect) or the inversion (Power Growth) method. Instructions on how to do these methods will be included with your order*. Just be aware that this and all oils can stain clothing, so it's best to apply the oil before you get dressed or in clothes you don't mind getting stained. You may also choose to put the oil on before bed and wash out in the morning, or leave it in for up to one week. You also may have good results by oiling your hair at night and "baggy-ing" it - meaning you put a plastic bag or shower cap on your hair, and cover that with a scarf. In the morning you can wash your hair and style as normal.
HAIR DYE/HAIR COLORING NOTE: for those that color their hair - while I have not noticed any loss of hair coloring while using this product, some people have reported that coconut oil in general causes their hair color to fade, while others report no issues at all. I believe the affect would vary between different brands, types and shades of hair coloring, so I have no way to guarantee that it will not affect your specific color. If you choose to try the product, please try a patch test on a small piece of hair before doing the whole head, or see our sample listing and order a couple of sample of this first to see how it may affect your hair coloring.
WARNING: Safety of specific herbs/oils in this product for pregnant or nursing women or children has not been determined. For this reason we do not recommend this product for use by women who are pregnant or nursing, or for children.
A Little Goes A Long Way:
If you apply it to your scalp only, one 4 oz bottle can last approximately 2-3 months. Over time and with regular use, you should see noticeably stronger, more beautiful hair.
So how long will it take to work?
That depends on the type and condition of your hair, state of health, diet, etc. (see our FAQ's for more info). Some users notice an almost immediate result, such as noticeable growth in the first few weeks. Other users see results within 2-3+ months of frequent use.

This is a pomade made with a great deal of beeswax which causes it to have the stiff texture of styling wax, but it can be warmed between the palms before styling.
Works on all hair types! African (dry/curly) hair to Caucasian hair (straight). This balm is made with organic shea butter and beeswax with a blend of pure olive and castor oil, which chock full of antioxidants, and discourages dry scalp. It also includes the finest quality of concentrated rosemary, tea tree and our special Growth Booster blend of essential oils**.
The rosemary in our oil works in a multitude of ways to promote longer, more luscious locks: helps condition the hair and moisturize scalp. The tea tree was included because of its reputation for encouraging a clear, clean scalp. Our exclusive Growth Booster blend of essential oils was added to give this already potent mixture a little extra kick, by nourishing the scalp. Last but not least, we have included the tried and trusted mineral Sulfur, which is purported to pamper damaged hair and promote a clean, clear scalp.
You simply take a pea-sized amount of the pomade, put it between the palms of your hands and rub them together to warm the pomade. Then apply pomade to your scalp and hair 3-4 times weekly. Be sure to also clarify the scalp and hair follicles regularly (1-2x per month). Be aware that this and all balms/oils can stain if product accidentally gets on fabric, so it's best to apply the oil before you get dressed, or while wearing clothes you don't care if oil gets on them. You may use this as a weekly hot oil treatment, with the Inversion Method, apply it before bed and wash out in the morning, or leave it in for up to a week.

*You should see some improvement over time, however, those with hair follicles that have completely died/are inactive or are damaged beyond repair may see minimal to no results with this, or any topical product. | Powerful Botanical Secret Formula hairdressing for the promotion of longer, stronger hair.
Do you have slow growing hair? In the past, it took me a whole year to get my hair from 5 1/2 inches long to 8 inches long (typical hair growth is about 6 inches per year)! I became frustrated and did some research into hair growth, and researched all of the most effective folk methods used around the world for long, strong, soft and shiny hair (India, Mexico, etc.) and came up with this powerful formulation.
I started making it by hand, using it on myself, but it wasn't long before friends, family and associates were clamoring for me to make some for them! After being told "you should sell this stuff!" Here I am! We have different formulations for Normal and Dry hair, so be sure to choose the best formula for you when ordering. Due to the heavier oils (olive oil, etc.,) this oil is not suitable for low-porosity hair.
How does it work?
As long as your hair follicles are not completely dead (as found in some male-pattern baldness/certain types of alopecia, etc.) it may be of help. It also contains botanicals that can help soften and condition your hair to prevent breakage, so that you keep more of your length. You can also use this as a hot oil treatment. It contains pure, golden jojoba oil (and castor and coconut oils in Dry hair formula), along with 26 other ingredients such as essential oils and herbs for hair growth from all over the world (including exotic Indian Amla, Burdock root, stinging nettle, ) that help grow soften and condition your hair. You would be hard pressed to find another hair oil with this many powerful natural ingredients! This formula is best for use on darker hair, as some of the ingredients may tint lighter hair (grey/white/blonde) when used over time.
Since many people use WAY too much heat when heat styling, this product is not recommended for use with extreme heat styling. I very rarely use heat, but I only do so on low settings with heat protectant in my hair. Since oil can get very hot, using heat styling tools that are too hot may damage the hair. If you have questions, please see the FAQ below, and email me if the answer isn't there.
**Note: Normal Hair Formula now contains Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Oil. All bottles shipping after 5.10.2020 will include it.**
Ingredients: (Dry Hair Formula): Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Capsicum Annuum (Cayenne Pepper), Camellia Sinensis (Black Tea), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary), Equisetum Arvense (Horsetail), Sinapis Alba (Mustard) Seed, Aloysia Triphylla (Lemon Verbena), Piper Nigrum (Black Pepper), Arctium Lappa (Burdock) Root, Althea Officinalis (Marshmallow) Root, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender), Urtica Dioica (Stinging Nettle) Leaf, Ocimum Basilicum (Basil), Petroselinum Sativum (Parsley) Leaf, Betula Alba (Birch) Bark, Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme), Coffea Arabica (Coffee) Bean, Salvia Officinalis (Sage), Phyllanthus Emblica (Amla), Allium Sativum (Garlic), Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root, Apocynum Cannabinum (Indian Hemp), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Oil, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus (Eucalyptus) Oil, Cinnamomum Camphora (Camphor) Oil.

To Use:
You simply shake well, then apply a small amount to your fingertips (a little goes a long way, so no need to oversaturate!), and massage it into your scalp with the pads of your fingers for 2-3 minutes, 3-4 times per week. You massage the scalp each day, even when not using oil. After applying oil, you should start to feel some slight tingling in your scalp within the first 5 minutes. After applying to scalp, you may gently brush hair from scalp to ends of hair to distribute the product evenly throughout your hair. You may also use this as a hot oil treatment before washing out. If you have drier hair (as found in most African types of hair) you may leave this in, but you should wash your hair at least once a week. It is concentrated so a little goes a long way. A four ounce bottle should last about 1-3 months depending on amount used and how often the oil is used. You may also use this as a hot oil treatment to help condition your hair, especially your ends, which tend to be the driest part of hair.

Why is it so expensive?

FAQ
Q: Does this product make hair grow thicker?
A: It may help make hair appear thicker as it re-grows from breakage and damage. Otherwise, hair thickness is determined by genetics, which controls how many individual hair follicles you have on your head at birth. Some people have tons of hair follicles, and others have less. Some people's individual hairs are fine and others' are coarse. My product, as wonderful as it is, will not change your genetic structure, cause the individual hairs to be permanently thicker or create more hair follicles on your head - no known topical treatment can.
Q: Will you sell me the recipe so I can make it at home?
A: No way. This recipe is really one of a kind and there is no way I would sell the recipe. Not even for $50,000 dollars. If you have $100,000, then maybe we can talk :) Besides, if you purchased all the materials to make this at home it would cost you about 4 times as much than if you just bought a bottle of it already made.
Q: Is there any Mineral Oil in this formula?
A: No. There is absolutely no mineral oil in this formula.
Q: How long will it take to work?
A: As much as we know people want to see a definitive answer on this, the truth is it is impossible to predict. It really depends greatly on the present condition of your hair, your diet/vitamin regimen, any health conditions you may have, your hair care regimen and whether you use any chemical or heat processes on your hair. No honest seller will make a specific claim, because since everyone is different and treats their hair differently it would be impossible to determine specific results. For example, one customer may use this product and also treat their hair well (no heat or chemicals, taking the time to detangle properly and use "protective" styling methods) and gain 6-8 inches in a year. Another customer may use a flat iron frequently or a relaxer and end up experiencing damage and breakage, resulting in only 3-4 inches gained in one year. It isn't that the hair did not grow, but it broke off just as fast as it grew.
