Using MSM as one of the ingredients, here’s a DIY Hair Oil Recipe that promotes hair growth.
We have shared a lot of recipes with you here before and this one is another unique recipe that uses MSM. This is a recipe shared with me by one of friends who took a liking to the results MSM offers for hair growth.
For those who have a tough time growing out their hair, or gaining good length with different methods, this is a must try. We’re going to look at the recipe first and then move to the ingredients and their benefits.
Ingredients
Virgin Olive Oil – 60 Ml
Fenugreek Seeds – 50 Grams
Coconut Oil – 60 Ml
Argan Oil – 20 Ml
Vitamin C – ¼ Tsp.
Organic Henna Powder – 2 Tsp.
Rosemary Essential Oil – a few drops
MSM Powder – ¾ Tsp.
Castor Oil – 3 Tbsp.
Eucalyptus Oil – a few drops
Instructions
In a heavy bottomed vessel, heat the Coconut Oil and add the Fenugreek Seeds to it.
Let it splutter. When the color changes to a golden brown, add the Henna Powder and simmer it. Let it sit for a few minutes – the oil will turn frothy when you add Henna Powder and then it will settle down once done.
Filter and set aside. You can also let this oil rest overnight and then filter.
Add in the Castor Oil and Olive Oil to it and let it cool down.
Once it cools down, transfer the oil to a sterilized glass bottle and add the other ingredients – Argan Oil, Vitamin C Powder, MSM Powder, Eucalyptus Oil and Rosemary Essential Oil.
Shake gently and let it sit for two days before you use it.
Tips to Tweak the Recipe
You can also add other hair beneficial essential oils like Peppermint, Tea Tree Essential Oil, Myrrh Essential Oil, etc. Choose the essential oils according to your requirements and preference.
While I have used the carrier oils of my choice here – Coconut Oil and Olive Oil, you can substitute it for carrier oils of your choice or preference. I personally tried this recipe with Sweet Almond Oil and Jojoba Oil and had good results. Feel free to tweak it and try out different variations.
Shelf Life
It is a good idea to use the oil within a week or two. However, the maximum you can go is 3 – 4 weeks, so prepare your batch accordingly.
Why These Ingredients?
All the ingredients are chosen to combat hair and scalp issues, thus aiding with better hair growth and healthy hair strands.
This oil stimulates scalp circulation and improves hair growth rate.
It also combats hair loss and hair thinning, keeps your strands healthy and strong.
How to Use the Oil?
Gently massage the oil into your scalp. After applying thoroughly – throughout your scalp, keep massaging for a few minutes to help with absorption. Don’t forget the tips or your hair strands. You can use this at least twice a week, if not daily. Don’t forget to do a patch test to ensure you are not allergic to any ingredients.
