I've been using the reactivate serum from liiitlextra for the past month and completely switched from my previous serum for the past two months. It's working wonderfully. I just apply it once every day with the spray pump that comes with the serum. It's very simple to apply, non greasy, and without any scent. The hair growth is so far so good, and it's only 1 month only and I will keep to apply it.
@@strawberrytiramisu your doctor does not have the best interest in your hair. When I use to use head and shoulders I could literally feel it burning my scalp.
@@Anothervictim87 I dont really wash my hair much because its curly so it takes a while to get oily/need to be washed. When I use head and shoulders it makes my scalp feel kinda refreshed. However I do also use a medicated scalp oil so that could be why lmao.
I used the moisturizing Head & Shoulders shampoo for almost a year (up until they changed their package, turns out they changed the formula too) and my hair was living for it, it was past my bum
Dude, I did my first castor oil treatment yesterday and I let me tell you... I had to shampoo three times with my regular shampoo to remove all the grease. Next time Imma try with Head n Shoulders just like her and see how it goes, cuz I always keep a bottle in case I need to remove any oil/product buildup
@@Nutellix okay yeah castor oil is reeeaaally thick but instead of using h&s to wash it off, mix the castor oil with coconut oil and it makes it easier to rinse out
Me! Went for a trim,the parlour lady chopped my 40cm long hair to a bob with ugly bangs....although I grew them back in 1.5 years. That was the last time a pair of scissors ever touched my hair. IT WAS THE LAST TYM I TRUSTED ANYONE EXCEPT MY MOM FOR MY HAIR!
I did, and I regretted it, but then I started using rice water, and that's when it started growing. Now it reaches my lower back. Another thing I do every three months or so is that I trim it( I cut about one centimeter or two, depends on if I have split ends or not) P.S. never trust anyone with your hair
This quarantine has taken me to some *places* y’all! 🙌🏼😂 I’m not sure how I got here, but this video was mildly interesting and fairly educational, so I stayed. I like you, *Tina Tomato!*
I sleep really late like average 4am for a whole year, and now I have intense hair loss and I’m crying😭😭I’m used to being praised by having thick and shiny hair but now it’s just thin and grassy hair😭😭SLEEP EARLY LADIES!!
@@TinaTomato hi In lockdown due to anxiety I’ve cultivated a very very *wrong* habit I pluck my hair. From the roots directly And this happens only in unconscious mind (it’s like biting nails/ popping pimple) So rn I’m having half baldness Meaning my *50%hair* has vanished But yk they say it’s *NEVER TOO LATE TO START* so do u got any tips on how I overcome the prob (Lmao don’t tell -stop plucking as simple as that) Cause it’s not simple. Nothing is.
I always had thin hair and lacked eyebrows, but taking omega3 really helped me. After 2 months of taking it my eyebrows filled in and I started getting baby hair on my forhead line where I never had baby hair. I really reccommend it
@@AnnaEvanz could please tell what kind do you take? and how long until I see the effects? I've been looking for something for years now because of my hair loss
Yes! Castor oil has helped both my hair and my eyelashes. On my hair and scalp sometimes I mix with sweet almond or coconut oil because castor oil is so thick and sticky. Also, I have used diluted apple cider vinegar to rinse the oil away prior to shampooing. Just an idea that works for me!
I don't know about hair, but I do know from own experience and also from my friend's experience that if you put castor oil on your eyelashes ( with clean mascara brush) every single evening before bed and leave it on, in around 1 month time your eyelashes will become really long and beautiful and will look like false eyelashes, as they will be so long.
@@researchscholar2424 it doesn't matter what age, the only problem is that it's not a permanent fix, if you stop using it for a month your hair thicknesses/length goes back to normal
Yes!!! I can confirm this. I filled a little tube with castor oil and a few rosemary leaves and after curling my eyelashes, I put It on almost everyday instead of mascara and my lashes have grown a lot!! I don't think they look fuller coz well genetics, I don't have a lot of hair in my body, but lenght, yes!
It definitely made a difference! Thanks for spending so much of your free time to do this experiment for us. I’m going to share this video with my friend who has thinning hair.
I think your hair definitely looks bouncier, has more body to it after the castor oil experiment. I agree with what everybody else is saying about head and shoulders shampoo. I researched it a long time ago and all I remember is that it's kind of brutal on the hair and scalp. I've been using castor oil on my eyelashes for about two months and I honestly can't tell any difference. I haven't wanted to use on my scalp because I don't really want to wash my hair anymore than every two days but after watching this video, I may start applying it once or twice a week. Thanks for sharing your experience! 👍🏼😄
I really like it and my hair looks fine. There are two versions, and one is safe for color treated hair. Its not drying like the regular version, but still has the Zinc Pyrithione. Says color safe on the front. When you have a flaky scalp any help is welcome, and H & S helps a lot.
@@bananasinpajamas9499 Amy shampoo with ketoconazole is good for dandruff, If you can get one with 2% of ketoconazole that would be ideal, but you can only use it 2 or 3 times a week for a month :)
Hair only grows about 1/2 inch per month for the average person so if it grew a whole inch that’s incredible growth! It looks much fuller and with more volume.
I've been using castor oil for a few years, first on its own on my bald spots and now as a hair mask (castor oil+vitamin E+aloe vera gel). I've always had fine hair and not much of it but this helped me a lot. I also got rid of regular shampoos and switched to natural products. Currently, I use Indian hair powders and I feel it's really good for my hair/scalp.
@@sarafa912 Yes, the castor oil and then the hair mask (which is even better for my hair at least) thickened my hair. It's a long process, though. Still worth it, IMHO.
@@ayaalmandalawy1490 I used to apply it twice a week (I suffer from oily scalp/hair so twice was enough for me), but I do not see any harm in applying it every night. I'd say... try it and see if it suits your lifestyle/hair needs and adjust as needed. 😊
As per Ayurveda, we use in our family Castor oil will be used during warm months and Coconut Oil in Cool months. We soak fenugreek seeds overnight and blend it next morning and apply it as a hair pack. We never use hair shampoos instead of that we wash our hair with Soapnuts(3) soaked overnight in a mug, just squeeze it you will see lather (natural shampoo). Finally, dry the wet hair with smoke coming from Sambrani incense (Benzoin Resin) in a Sambrani holder. That is why Indian women never experience any hair problems even in their old age.
I use castor oil most of the times mixed with another solution of oils that I created. Agree your hair looks to have volume after 30 days if all is equal. Great 👍 job hair needs the right oil combination #teamcastoroil. Depends on how aggressive you want to see the difference long term would work it either once a week for your hair type and twice a month for mine.
Can you please tell me what oils you use for the mixture? I kinda have thin and fine hair and i really need your help to get more volume.. i'm 23 and been struggling with this hair problem for 7 years now..
@@mixx-n-match please make sure to check your diet and read any and all labels 🏷 on food and hair. What oils are you using? Im 100% natural hair products shampoo and conditioner. When at grocery store and hair salon anyone can catch me reading labels. So before I give please share how you eat Im a vegetarian but and try to balance acidic and alkaline foods although we should be more alkaline.
If your hair is thin, it's probably because the oil is heavy and weighs down your hair. You can definitely try aloe vera like another person commented. It has water like consistency and very light. When I used it on my brows they grew very fast. Onion juice is also great for hair growth but has a smell if you can tolerate. If you mix aloe vera with castor oil it also helps lighten the consistency. Hope this helps!
I would recommend trying a more natural shampoo! I used head n shoulders for years and had horrible dandruff thinking that it was helping, I've switched shampoos for the last year and my scalp is so much healthier and no longer too dry/oily. (I used Lush shampoo/conditioner bars and Neutrogena tgel!)
@@priscilaamador338 Ahh i'm from uk so we don't have target, but i'll look for it elsewhere and try it when my other products have run out! Thanks for the suggestion.
I used head and shoulders waaayy too long because I thought the dandruff was my biggest reason for my hair not growing back. Ive had hormone testing done but my thin hair is 100% genetic. I switched to natural shampoo and conditioner bars that contain 0 alcohol from an online company called Earthingco. I've used it for 2 months now every day or sometimes every other day (I have oily hair next day) and I have no dandruff anymore. My scalp feels refreshed and I have lots of baby hairs now. I feel more confident and know I will never go back to bottled shampoo. I'm definitely going to try castor oil again with this now as it didn't seem effective with the chemical filled shampoos.
I agree. And it would be even better if she were to use a silk/satin bonnet to cover her hair at night: that way the oil would stay outta her face and not cause breakouts.
I didn't know that.My hair gets so frizzy and I hate it.Maybe I changed pillow case and plus I'm trying to grow my hair.I got jamaican black castor oil and cantu shea butter grow strong treatment to put on it together and I got nature's bounty gummies to take for my hair
Thank you so much for being so thorough and raw in your experiment and experience! I've experienced hair loss and have been looking for the most effective way to grow thicker hair.
I mix Indian sesame oil and some essential oils - lavender, rose geranium, peppermint, tea tree, lime, orange, grapefruit, clary sage etc and use it approx once a week. With a stressful divorce and move to the other side of the country over the last 10 years my hair went grey and then thinned left & right. The grey and thinning recovered on the right and now the oil mix is fixing the very thin spot on the left. : ) Stick with it.
@@abidee2574 Hi Abi I have just gone through the tub. Also: Argan, rose hip (different purpose to rose geranium), rosemary, eucalyptus - plus: lavender, peppermint, tea tree, lime, orange, grapefruit, clary sage. A few drops of each. More of the nutritional oils and a touch of the stronger ones. Good luck with it. : )
For thick hair do the following: 1-use coconut oil (don't use castor oil in pure form dilute it with coconut oil) 2-at night braid your hairs. 3-add 1tea spoon mixture of fenugreek, mustard,carry leaves powder in your food every day.(mix all powders and USB 1teaspoon from it) 4-have health diet. *Follow this you will have thick, shiny and long hair.*
@@michelleu7516 I think you should ideally do both.. In India, we add mustard and fenugreek in many of the common food items. Even curry leaves. You can soak fenugreek overnight, grind it into a paste and apply it on your hair. If you have dry hair, you could add some coconut milk too. This once a week for a month would definitely bring good result.
@@michelleu7516 hiii,I add this ingredients in powder form in my everyday meal(just mix all ingredients ,make powder,n add tea spoon while you cook daily in meal).And I also make oil of fenugreek, mustard and curry leaves PROCESS to make OIL:- just take 100gram of each ingredient and add in 500ml parachute coconut oil or coconut oil you love,boil it at low flame with this ingredients about 15-20mins,keep stirring it. Cool it and strain. You can use this oil for2-3 months by keeping it at room temperature. Direction : massage this oil at night and braid your hair .keep at least 11-12hour on scalp. You can keep for 2days if you r ok . Do try this ,n reply.
My hair growth success story - permanently fixed my hair, i did the following below: 😊😊😊 1. Fragrance Free Shampoo: Korean cosmetic industry already know why fragrance free - so research why if you're curious. Even baby shampoo is fragrance free. 2. Taoist Soap for Hair Growth 2x a week- stimulates hair growth, stops inflammation which is the root cause for all hair loss, including genetic and hormone based. 3. Stinging Nettle Tea everyday (make sure you aren't allergic) for removing hormone residue in the liver: this helps support a healthier balance for hormones, but obviously not a 100% cure. 4. Scalp Massage 20-30 minutes everyday - this is very under-rated - but works, you must do everyday. 5. Collagen Powder bovine based 2x tablespoon everyday - nutrition aspect of hair is covered, and will increase the speed of hair growth as well. 6. Cold water rinse (only top of head) after a shower: Do this especially if you get itchy scalp, or sensitive feeling scalp - just do the scalp, dont do it on the back of your head or neck will make you sick if you are weak. learnt this from my older brother who had hair thinning when he was 19, and now hes 28 and still thick head of hair.
My hair was thinning due to stress before and just bad hair care in general. What really helped me was learning about my hair type, going from daily washes to twice a week or as needed, co-washing, or using as little shampoo as possible, deep conditioning, and using oils on my hair (I use argan oil). Now my hair is stronger and healthier. Of course hair fall is normal but not as excessive as before. Good luck on your hair journey!
@@ksilofo it was too greasy for me and it was just uncomfortable to have it in. I use Topikk micro hair fiber powder to make my hair look more full. It makes me feel less insecure and it looks natural. Look into that if you want but it doesn’t grow hairs.
thank for the info, i will try it on my hair, on what i have left on my head...i should say lol, i hope i get some good result, love your videos..someone told me about castor oil but never did any research on it..looking forward for the next update
9:56 there's a big difference in your hair volume and shine! A couple tips: Warm up the castor oil before use, and massage it through the ends of your hair. Use a different shampoo, head and shoulders sometimes creates dandruff (I use biolage!)
Hey girly! Make sure you’re wrapping your hair at night with a silk or satin scarf/bonnet or use a silk or satin pillow case if you don’t wanna do the whole scarf thing. If you choose a bonnet, flip it inside out so that your hair especially the hair line doesn’t get caught up in the elastic. I say scarf or bonnet cos it will keep all of the oil from getting on your face and everywhere else you don’t want it, and protect your tresses regardless of your hair texture. Ditch the head and shoulders shampoo that shampoo Destroyed my hair and find something more gentle. Aussie Moist is good and Creme of Nature and won’t break the bank. Garnier Fructis has good shampoos and conditioners too they won’t strip your hair. JBCO is a good oil but if you find it too heavy you can add something like Avocado oil which is also good for hair. If you haven’t already get your vitamin levels check especially for vitamin d and iron. You can also try things like MSM powder with vitamin c. MSM tends to thicken up hair in some ppl at least that’s been the experience I’ve had and my hair was very thin especially hairline. If you go the MSM route, start off slow and then build up to the max dosage to see how and if your body reacts. Have to get the inside right to get the maximum results on the outside. Helped me out a ton! I had traction alopecia from wearing extensions and lace fronts glued down for years and I gained back most of my edges/hairline. I know our hair textures are different, but some things cross over when it comes to hair care. There are probably many things from the natural hair community that you can try and it just might work. We’re sisters no matter what our ethnicity is and we can grow and learn from one another. Happy Hair journey sister ❤️
I think putting that much castor oil on the hair and scalp is a bit much becouse how thick and viscous castor oil is and how hard it is to remove it. I just use a drop in a bottle with water and conditioner, shake it very well and pour it on my hair, after I used shampoo. Then I rinse with water and the results are amazingly moisturized, shiny hair and my scalp feels sooo good! But only use castor oil if you have dry scalp and hair! It worked wonders for my hair, nothing could keep it moisturized, I am so amazed!
Tina please do check your hormone levels. is there any medication you take that has testosterone in it ? A lot of protein supplements have testosterone. Maybe you are taking some protein supplement for your health. testosterone is a male hormone and some people get "Male pattern" baldness becs of it. when you oiled your hair and pulled it all backwards there is a significant bald patch on both sides of ur scalp. Do check with a Endocrinologist and either reduce the intake or stop the use completely. Castor oil might help but id highly recommend you Fenugreek and hibiscus combination for more fuller scalp. take abt 50 gms of fenugreek seeds. soak them overnight. If you are in a warm city where Hibiscus plant grows easily and you can find fresh flowers easily get about 15 red flowers. if not you do get hibiscus flower powder online. you will need 50 gms of hibiscus flower powder. grind these 2 ingredients to a slurry like consistency and massage this on your scalp 2-3 times a week. if possible leave it overnite or atleast for 2-3 hours. if you do this regularly you will see a lot of new hair growth in about 2 months time. you may also add castor oil to this mixture. trust me. try this and in 3 months time you will have a fuller scalp. and yes H & S is the worst shampoo you can use. a natural shampoo is equal parts rice powder, mung bean powder and chickpea powder added to half part shikakai and half part Reetha powder. mix all these powder in an airtight container. to use as shampoo, take about 200 ml water add a heaped teaspoon of this powder and cook it on a slow flame for about 3-4 mins. let it cool down. use this as shampoo. no need of any conditioner after this.
Wow I can def see the difference in how your hair bounced more at the end of the 30 days. One thing I've heard about using oil for hair is that it's best absorbed into wet/damp hair since that is when the follicles are more open- wondering if you came across that info too in your research. Anyways, great video!
don't go to bed with wet hair, it will cause the scalp to dry more & produce excessive oil leading to dandruff and damaged hair shaft and use silk bonnet, castor oil on the lash line, eyebrows and face can cause comedones or milia. make sure to gently exfoilate with wash cloth to prevent.
@@chaillyliebowitz3095 it depends on your skin type. some people don't produce as much keratin and sebum so they don't get comodomes or millia. typically you exfoliate lightly using a wash cloth or a facial brush when washing your face at night before bedtime. i would use a clean unused pillow case and don't touch your face with your fingers, after applying. I developed millia around my eye and had to extract it myself because i used it every day. Maybe use it every other day. A bald spot on the scalp is different than your facial skin surface. Castor oil is really thick and not comedogenic. Sunflower or sesame oil is a nice alternative if your just needing thicker eyelashes and brows and not treating any bald spots. If your not vegan, make sure to include rich in protein and Vit D sources like milk, kefir, yoghurt, eggs, fish and mushrooms and cook your food in Olive oil, Sesame seed oil, Ghee or butter. Itll help your hair grow better from the inside -out. if you start to notice any bumps or acne after using castor oil on your face. stop using it and spot treat it with acne cream until it clears. Switch to a lighter oil. Hope it helps.
Castor oil is NOT comedogenic. Maybe it seems thick in texture but its molecules are really tiny so they can't clog your pores. That's why it's beautiful for problematic skin - mixed with grapeseed oil (2:1) is an excellent moisturizer and brightener.
Tina! I think that the head and shoulders shampoo is the one causing your scalp to be very oily. Last year I had the same experience, I've always had a normal oiliness on my scalp and after using head and shoulders for a few months I started experiencing excessive oiliness and even dandruff problems. Every 1 day after washing my hair, it would get very oily and dirty, so I washed it almost every day. Then my mom recommended me using another shampoo and washing it every two days or so. She was totally right! Cleaning your hair every day causes it to produce more oil to balance the dryness. Also the head and shoulders shampoo is really aggressive to oily and sensitive scalps. I recommend to anyone who's having the same problems to use a different shampoo (according to your hair type) and not cleaning it every single day, only when you need to. Also, english is not my first language, hope it was clear anyways :)❤️
Paella OldTown yesssss thats so trueeee, i even get bald for heald&shoulders and my hair was so so oily, that i couldnt touch my head or be touch by anything cause that patch become so so oily omg PLEASE STOP USING IT

KnackeredNoodle Girl have you been to the doctors? Taken a blood test? Because one morning last year I woke up with a bald spot on the very top of my scalp and found out I had very low levels of iron. Been taking iron tablets every night for the last 8 months and I can see quite a bit of hair growing back which is a good sign.
Most people grow a quarter of an inch in a month. An entire inch is very encouraging. This would be a great idea for someone growing out a bad haircut or bangs.
I recommend you getting a boar bristle brush. Besides distributing your scalp oils it also gets your babies to stick to the others and make your hairstyle look more clean
mix warm water with a table spoon of lemon and some aloe Vera gel in a spray bottle and spray and rub it in your hair before washing it. it will clean the scalp
Great experiment! I really want to try it. Can you make an update now that it's been two months using it? Also, I love the magnifier addition in this documentation.
If my hair grew an inch a month, I'd reach my goal length within six months--with a trim. I use a lot if natural stuff on my hair, including oils, biotin, and a satin sleep cap every night. There was a noticeable difference in just thirty days. Very cool.
I was born with a very fine hair up till now in my 60s. Came to know recently that mixed castor & coconut oil is effective. Could you please recommend a reliable shop here in Makati selling pure and organic castor oil? And if there are no adverse effects. How often should I use it especially if mixed with pure & organic coconut oil? Proper ratio? Grateful for your help.🙏
I do castor oil with a carrier oil such as coconut or olive or a blend and add a few drops of essential oil.. tea tree and rosemary are great for cleansing and growth ❤️
I do it once a week (when I’m being religious) but probably more often like once every week or two but I dont think it would cause any harm to do it more often!
I would recommend to not use essential oils in the mix. Dermatologist agree that people can become sensitive to frangrance after long use and get rashes, drier skin ect.
@@cristals8340 Hm that's interesting I've never heard that about essential oil since it shouldn't have fragrance in it if you are buying pure oil. But with everything you should try a little and see how your body reacts... plus you should be diluting the oil in a carrier oil not putting the oil directly on your skin! Hope this helps!
Tina you shouldn't put the castor oil direct to your scalp bec it's thick You should mix it with coconut oil or.......... Then you can put it to your scalp.And don't put much amount bec it will be difficult to remove it from your scalp.
@@sultanachowdhury6610 You can use Live Clean if it's available in your city. It's inexpensive and has different variety for different hair types and even dry scalp.
Hi, I have one doubt. Few months back I visited one famous Hair clinic. Exactly my scalp looks like your scalp which is shown in this video. But the reason for the hair fall is *Dandruf, dandruf blocked the scalp pore*. Is it wrong or you also having a same problem?
Really what changed my hair best was taking biotin, using a water filter in the shower and not using hot tools. Oh and stop putting a ponytail in it. I tried castor oil and others as a overnight mask and oh yes it was awesome! But the other things showed more growth and the oil caused me to break out if it gets on my face too much.
I’m having that issue now ! I’m shoulder length hair and I keep it in a ponytail but seeing breakage, I don’t want to leave it down because it will rub collar and fabric and break anyway... 😢 any suggestions
@@krissieg7862 you can put it into a bun, but that can often be uncomfortable because of the weight on your head, so perhaps a French twist style? It is a protective style and works on shorter hair
If you haven't already tried it, Henna is a great option to make your hair feel thick and healthy. It comes in a bunch of reddish brown shades or even black (although the black one could contain a certain ingredient which you should avoid). Since you already have dark hair the color wouldn't show up too much and therefore shouldn't be a huge concern. More importantly if you do try it out, make sure to use a brand that is all natural and uses 100% henna and or cassia plant. I did it a while ago and It's made my hair feel and look noticeably thicker and glossy.
Take Biotin for great results. I’ve grown new layers of hair at 60 and we’ve finally convinced my friend’s daughter, who was virtually bald and very depressed, to take it. She now has hair. It’s cheap and the tablets are tiny. No mess. Also get your iron levels checked, a lot of young women don’t eat red meat these days and that can contribute to the problem. It’s really what you put in your body that helps. Pale skin and dull eyes can indicate deficiencies. Your inside health shows in your skin and hair. Young women should have glowing skin and bright eyes, if they don’t then they’re lacking nutrients.
There can be adverse effects though, just like any and all supplements. When I used a very highly reputable biotin supplement, I started getting cystic acne. Tried a lower dosage from a different company and still got it. Only use it if you need it and avoid super high doses unless you know you tolerate it well.
@@aartivedi7142 hey , you can use biotin from any brand. Jamieson makes tiny tablets of which u only need one a day. Also dont forget a high quality multivitamin. Quest, jamieson, Adrien gagnon are all local Canadian brands which i trust
Taking biotin for hair works if you do a blood test and have a deficiency, otherwise they dont do much but it's still worth a try. If your biotin levels are within range then the problem lies elsewhere, like PCOS (me) if its not age/genetics!
Nope. Thickness is genetic( thickness means the diameter of the hair shaft) . But if you are talking about density( number of hairs per square centimeter) that can be increased through growth aids like teas and castor oil)
@@politereminder6284 Nope. Thickness and density are genetic. Unless you are excessivley losing hair due to malnutrition or an allergy to something you're putting on your scalp or in your body (or stress).
@@WakeupgrandowlNot entirely true about genetics. Density can be enhanced and maximized. I started doing homemade herbal rinses and tonics for my scalp. I was shocked by how much denser my hair became overnight, how much more new growth I got and how much more resilient my strands became. My hair had had the same density my whole life, so one cannot claim that I had had some kind of a health problem or deficiency causing the lower density levels.. I was shocked by how many new hairs suddenly sprung up and by how little shedding I had afterwards Apparently, the teas extend the growth stage and suspend the shedding stage, so my hair is definitely denser that it's ever been before My teas include onion peel, and various dry herbs I have in my spice rack like oregano, basil, rosemary, moringa, bay leaf etc. *The difference is night and day. Same genetics, enhanced results.*
Rex L if you’re speaking of pure oil can be irritating and if it’s processed hexane absolutely do not use this on your skin.... so not... it’s not if it’s processed properly. ✌🏻🥳
Am indian, and I use home made castor oil for growth and to maintain dark hair, so before applying warm it up a bit along with coconut oil it makes huge difference.
I’ve been a stylist for over 30 years as everyone said already stop using the head and shoulders. If you have dandruff use a shampoo by Nioxin called Scalp therapy. I use to love to sell Solve by Redken but they changed it. And only use it 2 times a week. The caster oil should help your dryness.
Castor oil is the BOMB! I could never grow my hair long...past my shoulders. I have been using it for over 2 yrs now and I am 54 and my hair is down to my waist!!!!! It really works and I have told lots of my friends!!!!👍👍JUST DO IT!
The problem is you used a mix of castor oil and coconut oil coconut oil tends to clog the pores and doesn't suit oily scalp + how will you know which oil helped? Why didn't you try 100% pure castor oil? In addition: you're using H&S which is filled with silicones and mineral oil that again clog the pores and builds up on the scalp.
Nice improvement! Wear a satin bonnet and/or satin pillowcase when you sleep. Some essential oils could also be beneficial for your scalp. Also, look into rice water rinses. Have an awesome day!
@@elizabethmiller7884 You make it with just rice and water. Soak about 1 Tbsp of rice in about 2-3 cups of water. Let that soak for about 1-2 days. Strain and then use in your hair. I usually add some hair conditioner to mine.
Be careful with adding oils that have carbon chains between 11 and 24 to your scalp since it feeds malassezia. You could have a malassezia inbalance that is causing your scalp to have dandruff and thus inflame the cuticles that caused your hair to thin.
WOW! Your hair looks so much better! Thanks for sharing ~ ! I will try this. I also rinse my hair in 3/4 apple cider vinegar mixed with 1/4 water. It makes a huge difference!
If you want to get the oil off easier you could try mixing it with another oil like a carrier oil, for instance argan oil? Also using too much castor oil will cause the opposite effect, a little goes a long way. Less is more here ❤ I'm also on a hair growth and strengthening journey so good luck to everyone else who is also doing the same!!

Head and shoulders is the worse shampoo for your scalp.
Do some research and you shall find some. Everyone's hair is different. Pick one that suites you that has natural ingredients and no parabens
Head & Shoulders is notoriously known for removing hair color, and helping salt and pepper hair to turn all white much more quickly. But good trial!
Interesting. My doctor recommended it to me because I have scalp psoriasis.
@@strawberrytiramisu your doctor does not have the best interest in your hair. When I use to use head and shoulders I could literally feel it burning my scalp.
@@Anothervictim87 I dont really wash my hair much because its curly so it takes a while to get oily/need to be washed. When I use head and shoulders it makes my scalp feel kinda refreshed. However I do also use a medicated scalp oil so that could be why lmao.
Me: That magnifying glass is so gross. Also me: Adds to cart.
😆👏
Magnifying glass Is awesome. Dermatologists use it as well.
I did the same thing!
Omg it was nasty
Lol
Stop using head shoulders thats the problem
Edit: would recommend Neutral Shampoo is with 0% perfume, 0% colouring, 0% parabens and pH skin neutral.
hahah was thinking the same
My sister had exactly the same problem as her.
moodwana facts
Exactly
I used the moisturizing Head & Shoulders shampoo for almost a year (up until they changed their package, turns out they changed the formula too) and my hair was living for it, it was past my bum
bruh this comment section saved me, never using head and shoulders again! thank you guyyyssss
Just wondering what you use instead, I feel like I need to switch too
@@DiyaCake I switched to love beauty & the planet and then found out they aren't cruelty free so I'm lost babe 🥲
Dude, I did my first castor oil treatment yesterday and I let me tell you... I had to shampoo three times with my regular shampoo to remove all the grease. Next time Imma try with Head n Shoulders just like her and see how it goes, cuz I always keep a bottle in case I need to remove any oil/product buildup
@@Nutellix okay yeah castor oil is reeeaaally thick but instead of using h&s to wash it off, mix the castor oil with coconut oil and it makes it easier to rinse out
My papa is 55 and he never used a shampoo to wash he only 5 to4 grey hairs and also have best hairline
who else cut their hair too short and regrets it
Omg me!!! Hasn't grown in almost 10yrs!!!🙄
Me! Cut it pixie short last dec, and its oct now. My hair is just like a bob? It barely grows and I am so upset 😭
I did the same and it grew so fast to past my shoulders within a few months and now it's just stopped😭 I dont understand my hair at all 😑
Me! Went for a trim,the parlour lady chopped my 40cm long hair to a bob with ugly bangs....although I grew them back in 1.5 years.
That was the last time a pair of scissors ever touched my hair.
IT WAS THE LAST TYM I TRUSTED ANYONE EXCEPT MY MOM FOR MY HAIR!
I did, and I regretted it, but then I started using rice water, and that's when it started growing. Now it reaches my lower back. Another thing I do every three months or so is that I trim it( I cut about one centimeter or two, depends on if I have split ends or not)

I never heard of castor for hair but pure olive oil and aloe. So who knows but if it works go for it. My lashes grew thicker with the castor
Which shampoo do you use? Plz recommend
Yes! Castor oil has helped both my hair and my eyelashes. On my hair and scalp sometimes I mix with sweet almond or coconut oil because castor oil is so thick and sticky. Also, I have used diluted apple cider vinegar to rinse the oil away prior to shampooing. Just an idea that works for me!
With your past experiencesx How long or often did you do this treatment? Did you also leave in over night? Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤
Did it work?
@@mariana7802 hey! Are uh planning to use Castrol oil.
I don't know about hair, but I do know from own experience and also from my friend's experience that if you put castor oil on your eyelashes ( with clean mascara brush) every single evening before bed and leave it on, in around 1 month time your eyelashes will become really long and beautiful and will look like false eyelashes, as they will be so long.
Will it be effective At the age of 40?
@@researchscholar2424 it doesn't matter what age, the only problem is that it's not a permanent fix, if you stop using it for a month your hair thicknesses/length goes back to normal
Yes!!! I can confirm this. I filled a little tube with castor oil and a few rosemary leaves and after curling my eyelashes, I put It on almost everyday instead of mascara and my lashes have grown a lot!! I don't think they look fuller coz well genetics, I don't have a lot of hair in my body, but lenght, yes!
But be careful! Oil can get on your eyeballs very easily and damage the cornea. And without applying it direct into the roots it wont work so :/
lol if u alr hv kind of thick and filled in brows ACTUALLY DO NOT PUT CASTOR OIL ON THEM U WILL LOOK LIKE A WILD ANIMAL ISTG
if you want more hair growth, i’d try putting your hair in sections and really focus on your scalp more
Does it regrow new hair ?

Same here!
same but my hair is way too thinner than hers:((
same here! what shampoo and conditioner do you use?
It definitely made a difference! Thanks for spending so much of your free time to do this experiment for us. I’m going to share this video with my friend who has thinning hair.
I think your hair definitely looks bouncier, has more body to it after the castor oil experiment. I agree with what everybody else is saying about head and shoulders shampoo. I researched it a long time ago and all I remember is that it's kind of brutal on the hair and scalp. I've been using castor oil on my eyelashes for about two months and I honestly can't tell any difference. I haven't wanted to use on my scalp because I don't really want to wash my hair anymore than every two days but after watching this video, I may start applying it once or twice a week. Thanks for sharing your experience! 👍🏼😄
The worse thing you can put on your hair is “ HEAD AND SHOULDERS “! As any hair specialists
I really like it and my hair looks fine. There are two versions, and one is safe for color treated hair. Its not drying like the regular version, but still has the Zinc Pyrithione. Says color safe on the front. When you have a flaky scalp any help is welcome, and H & S helps a lot.
Everyone is different!
I have really bad dandruff is there a better alternative? 🤔
I have worst kind of dandruff and I used head and shoulder
Now I think I'm balding don't know what is the reason
@@bananasinpajamas9499 Amy shampoo with ketoconazole is good for dandruff, If you can get one with 2% of ketoconazole that would be ideal, but you can only use it 2 or 3 times a week for a month :)
It's a big difference for a month omg!
Hair only grows about 1/2 inch per month for the average person so if it grew a whole inch that’s incredible growth! It looks much fuller and with more volume.
I've been using castor oil for a few years, first on its own on my bald spots and now as a hair mask (castor oil+vitamin E+aloe vera gel). I've always had fine hair and not much of it but this helped me a lot. I also got rid of regular shampoos and switched to natural products. Currently, I use Indian hair powders and I feel it's really good for my hair/scalp.
did it make your hair thicker??
@@sarafa912 Yes, the castor oil and then the hair mask (which is even better for my hair at least) thickened my hair. It's a long process, though. Still worth it, IMHO.
@@liamhain2155 should I apply the castro oil every night on my bald spots?
@@ayaalmandalawy1490 I used to apply it twice a week (I suffer from oily scalp/hair so twice was enough for me), but I do not see any harm in applying it every night. I'd say... try it and see if it suits your lifestyle/hair needs and adjust as needed. 😊
@@liamhain2155 alright thank u for the help!
Head and shoulder shampoo is what is causing the problem.
Did you continue to put it on your eyelashes and brows? Your hair does look healthier! Way to go!! 👏🏾
As per Ayurveda, we use in our family Castor oil will be used during warm months and Coconut Oil in Cool months. We soak fenugreek seeds overnight and blend it next morning and apply it as a hair pack. We never use hair shampoos instead of that we wash our hair with Soapnuts(3) soaked overnight in a mug, just squeeze it you will see lather (natural shampoo). Finally, dry the wet hair with smoke coming from Sambrani incense (Benzoin Resin) in a Sambrani holder. That is why Indian women never experience any hair problems even in their old age.
No one has time for all that crap
Literally noone wants a smoky smelled hair eeewwwwww
@@azabujuban-hito8085 It is not smoke from tobacco, it is incense smoke. Most of the Asians and Middle East people use it.

@@beautyuploads7745 Try what best suits you. I hope you find a shortcut for hair growth.
I use castor oil most of the times mixed with another solution of oils that I created. Agree your hair looks to have volume after 30 days if all is equal. Great 👍 job hair needs the right oil combination #teamcastoroil. Depends on how aggressive you want to see the difference long term would work it either once a week for your hair type and twice a month for mine.

Am i the only one who experiences more hairloss when putting oil on in?? My hair is too fragile....
it has something to with your type of hair
Same i also loose haira
Christina i also have the same experiences.. I only use aloe vera gel on my scalp.
Yess same for me too :(((
If your hair is thin, it's probably because the oil is heavy and weighs down your hair. You can definitely try aloe vera like another person commented. It has water like consistency and very light. When I used it on my brows they grew very fast. Onion juice is also great for hair growth but has a smell if you can tolerate. If you mix aloe vera with castor oil it also helps lighten the consistency. Hope this helps!
I would recommend trying a more natural shampoo! I used head n shoulders for years and had horrible dandruff thinking that it was helping, I've switched shampoos for the last year and my scalp is so much healthier and no longer too dry/oily. (I used Lush shampoo/conditioner bars and Neutrogena tgel!)
Olivia J Shea Moisture from Target is an amazing more natural option 🙌🏼
@@priscilaamador338 Ahh i'm from uk so we don't have target, but i'll look for it elsewhere and try it when my other products have run out! Thanks for the suggestion.
shampoo bars are the best ♥
I used head and shoulders waaayy too long because I thought the dandruff was my biggest reason for my hair not growing back. Ive had hormone testing done but my thin hair is 100% genetic. I switched to natural shampoo and conditioner bars that contain 0 alcohol from an online company called Earthingco. I've used it for 2 months now every day or sometimes every other day (I have oily hair next day) and I have no dandruff anymore. My scalp feels refreshed and I have lots of baby hairs now. I feel more confident and know I will never go back to bottled shampoo.
I'm definitely going to try castor oil again with this now as it didn't seem effective with the chemical filled shampoos.
@@sierraowen9575 Shampoo bars for the win! Better for us and the environment : )
hi! You should get a satin pillowcase or a satin cap to wear to bed, cotton rubs against the hair and cause frizz
or silk
I agree. And it would be even better if she were to use a silk/satin bonnet to cover her hair at night: that way the oil would stay outta her face and not cause breakouts.
I didn't know that.My hair gets so frizzy and I hate it.Maybe I changed pillow case and plus I'm trying to grow my hair.I got jamaican black castor oil and cantu shea butter grow strong treatment to put on it together and I got nature's bounty gummies to take for my hair
Thank you so much for being so thorough and raw in your experiment and experience! I've experienced hair loss and have been looking for the most effective way to grow thicker hair.
hi, what did you do
Horsetail and He Shou Wu
I mix Indian sesame oil and some essential oils - lavender, rose geranium, peppermint, tea tree, lime, orange, grapefruit, clary sage etc and use it approx once a week. With a stressful divorce and move to the other side of the country over the last 10 years my hair went grey and then thinned left & right. The grey and thinning recovered on the right and now the oil mix is fixing the very thin spot on the left. : ) Stick with it.
What are the rest of the oil?
@@abidee2574 Hi Abi I have just gone through the tub. Also: Argan, rose hip (different purpose to rose geranium), rosemary, eucalyptus - plus: lavender, peppermint, tea tree, lime, orange, grapefruit, clary sage. A few drops of each. More of the nutritional oils and a touch of the stronger ones. Good luck with it. : )
The name “Tina Tomato” got me to stay and watch!!! Very interesting info!!!
Jojo siwa needs to try this challenge.
Moon Lluna 😂😂😂
For thick hair do the following:
1-use coconut oil (don't use castor oil in pure form dilute it with coconut oil)
2-at night braid your hairs.
3-add 1tea spoon mixture of fenugreek, mustard,carry leaves powder in your food every day.(mix all powders and USB 1teaspoon from it)
4-have health diet.
*Follow this you will have thick, shiny and long hair.*
Yes
Do you eat the fenugreek curry and mustard seed or mix it in your hair?
@@michelleu7516 I think you should ideally do both.. In India, we add mustard and fenugreek in many of the common food items. Even curry leaves. You can soak fenugreek overnight, grind it into a paste and apply it on your hair. If you have dry hair, you could add some coconut milk too. This once a week for a month would definitely bring good result.
@@michelleu7516 hiii,I add this ingredients in powder form in my everyday meal(just mix all ingredients ,make powder,n add tea spoon while you cook daily in meal).And I also make oil of fenugreek, mustard and curry leaves
PROCESS to make OIL:-
just take 100gram of each ingredient and add in 500ml parachute coconut oil or coconut oil you love,boil it at low flame with this ingredients about 15-20mins,keep stirring it. Cool it and strain. You can use this oil for2-3 months by keeping it at room temperature.
Direction : massage this oil at night and braid your hair .keep at least 11-12hour on scalp. You can keep for 2days if you r ok .
Do try this ,n reply.
My hair hates coconut oil
I love the fact she documents the whole experience so properly👌
My hair growth success story - permanently fixed my hair, i did the following below: 😊😊😊
1. Fragrance Free Shampoo: Korean cosmetic industry already know why fragrance free - so research why if you're curious. Even baby shampoo is fragrance free.
2. Taoist Soap for Hair Growth 2x a week- stimulates hair growth, stops inflammation which is the root cause for all hair loss, including genetic and hormone based.
3. Stinging Nettle Tea everyday (make sure you aren't allergic) for removing hormone residue in the liver: this helps support a healthier balance for hormones, but obviously not a 100% cure.
4. Scalp Massage 20-30 minutes everyday - this is very under-rated - but works, you must do everyday.
5. Collagen Powder bovine based 2x tablespoon everyday - nutrition aspect of hair is covered, and will increase the speed of hair growth as well.
6. Cold water rinse (only top of head) after a shower: Do this especially if you get itchy scalp, or sensitive feeling scalp - just do the scalp, dont do it on the back of your head or neck will make you sick if you are weak.
learnt this from my older brother who had hair thinning when he was 19, and now hes 28 and still thick head of hair.
My hair was thinning due to stress before and just bad hair care in general. What really helped me was learning about my hair type, going from daily washes to twice a week or as needed, co-washing, or using as little shampoo as possible, deep conditioning, and using oils on my hair (I use argan oil). Now my hair is stronger and healthier. Of course hair fall is normal but not as excessive as before. Good luck on your hair journey!
I lost quite a bit of hair due to stress myself. Not sure how to stop it going to try to use Castor oil now!
@@IsraelLlerena hey did you notice any growth? my hair from the front is thinning and I noticed some baldness in the front, can I fix that?
@@ksilofo it was too greasy for me and it was just uncomfortable to have it in. I use Topikk micro hair fiber powder to make my hair look more full. It makes me feel less insecure and it looks natural. Look into that if you want but it doesn’t grow hairs.
@@IsraelLlerena thank you, I appreciate the answer
thank for the info, i will try it on my hair, on what i have left on my head...i should say lol, i hope i get some good result, love your videos..someone told me about castor oil but never did any research on it..looking forward for the next update
Glad it was helpful Michael, good luck!
Also do derma rolling and use Hask hair thicking shampoo
9:56 there's a big difference in your hair volume and shine! A couple tips: Warm up the castor oil before use, and massage it through the ends of your hair. Use a different shampoo, head and shoulders sometimes creates dandruff (I use biolage!)
Use natural shampoo based on plant extracts without chemicals
Hi, you’re the second person to say u need to pre heat it. How does it help?
Hey girly! Make sure you’re wrapping your hair at night with a silk or satin scarf/bonnet or use a silk or satin pillow case if you don’t wanna do the whole scarf thing. If you choose a bonnet, flip it inside out so that your hair especially the hair line doesn’t get caught up in the elastic. I say scarf or bonnet cos it will keep all of the oil from getting on your face and everywhere else you don’t want it, and protect your tresses regardless of your hair texture. Ditch the head and shoulders shampoo that shampoo Destroyed my hair and find something more gentle. Aussie Moist is good and Creme of Nature and won’t break the bank. Garnier Fructis has good shampoos and conditioners too they won’t strip your hair. JBCO is a good oil but if you find it too heavy you can add something like Avocado oil which is also good for hair. If you haven’t already get your vitamin levels check especially for vitamin d and iron. You can also try things like MSM powder with vitamin c. MSM tends to thicken up hair in some ppl at least that’s been the experience I’ve had and my hair was very thin especially hairline. If you go the MSM route, start off slow and then build up to the max dosage to see how and if your body reacts. Have to get the inside right to get the maximum results on the outside. Helped me out a ton! I had traction alopecia from wearing extensions and lace fronts glued down for years and I gained back most of my edges/hairline. I know our hair textures are different, but some things cross over when it comes to hair care. There are probably many things from the natural hair community that you can try and it just might work. We’re sisters no matter what our ethnicity is and we can grow and learn from one another. Happy Hair journey sister ❤️

Only use Cotton or linen
I think putting that much castor oil on the hair and scalp is a bit much becouse how thick and viscous castor oil is and how hard it is to remove it.
I just use a drop in a bottle with water and conditioner, shake it very well and pour it on my hair, after I used shampoo. Then I rinse with water and the results are amazingly moisturized, shiny hair and my scalp feels sooo good!
But only use castor oil if you have dry scalp and hair! It worked wonders for my hair, nothing could keep it moisturized, I am so amazed!
Tina please do check your hormone levels. is there any medication you take that has testosterone in it ? A lot of protein supplements have testosterone. Maybe you are taking some protein supplement for your health. testosterone is a male hormone and some people get "Male pattern" baldness becs of it. when you oiled your hair and pulled it all backwards there is a significant bald patch on both sides of ur scalp. Do check with a Endocrinologist and either reduce the intake or stop the use completely.
Castor oil might help but id highly recommend you Fenugreek and hibiscus combination for more fuller scalp. take abt 50 gms of fenugreek seeds. soak them overnight. If you are in a warm city where Hibiscus plant grows easily and you can find fresh flowers easily get about 15 red flowers. if not you do get hibiscus flower powder online. you will need 50 gms of hibiscus flower powder. grind these 2 ingredients to a slurry like consistency and massage this on your scalp 2-3 times a week. if possible leave it overnite or atleast for 2-3 hours. if you do this regularly you will see a lot of new hair growth in about 2 months time. you may also add castor oil to this mixture. trust me. try this and in 3 months time you will have a fuller scalp. and yes H & S is the worst shampoo you can use. a natural shampoo is equal parts rice powder, mung bean powder and chickpea powder added to half part shikakai and half part Reetha powder. mix all these powder in an airtight container. to use as shampoo, take about 200 ml water add a heaped teaspoon of this powder and cook it on a slow flame for about 3-4 mins. let it cool down. use this as shampoo. no need of any conditioner after this.
Wow I can def see the difference in how your hair bounced more at the end of the 30 days. One thing I've heard about using oil for hair is that it's best absorbed into wet/damp hair since that is when the follicles are more open- wondering if you came across that info too in your research. Anyways, great video!
don't go to bed with wet hair, it will cause the scalp to dry more & produce excessive oil leading to dandruff and damaged hair shaft and use silk bonnet, castor oil on the lash line, eyebrows and face can cause comedones or milia. make sure to gently exfoilate with wash cloth to prevent.
Wow I need you in my life - please start a haircare chanel or blog - or better yet tell me you have one
Great advice ! 😘
Misha Bear If I exfoliate my eyelids before putting the castor oil on, will it still get comodones and milia?
@@chaillyliebowitz3095 it depends on your skin type. some people don't produce as much keratin and sebum so they don't get comodomes or millia. typically you exfoliate lightly using a wash cloth or a facial brush when washing your face at night before bedtime. i would use a clean unused pillow case and don't touch your face with your fingers, after applying. I developed millia around my eye and had to extract it myself because i used it every day. Maybe use it every other day. A bald spot on the scalp is different than your facial skin surface. Castor oil is really thick and not comedogenic. Sunflower or sesame oil is a nice alternative if your just needing thicker eyelashes and brows and not treating any bald spots. If your not vegan, make sure to include rich in protein and Vit D sources like milk, kefir, yoghurt, eggs, fish and mushrooms and cook your food in Olive oil, Sesame seed oil, Ghee or butter. Itll help your hair grow better from the inside -out. if you start to notice any bumps or acne after using castor oil on your face. stop using it and spot treat it with acne cream until it clears. Switch to a lighter oil. Hope it helps.
Castor oil is NOT comedogenic. Maybe it seems thick in texture but its molecules are really tiny so they can't clog your pores. That's why it's beautiful for problematic skin - mixed with grapeseed oil (2:1) is an excellent moisturizer and brightener.
Tina! I think that the head and shoulders shampoo is the one causing your scalp to be very oily.
Last year I had the same experience, I've always had a normal oiliness on my scalp and after using head and shoulders for a few months I started experiencing excessive oiliness and even dandruff problems. Every 1 day after washing my hair, it would get very oily and dirty, so I washed it almost every day.
Then my mom recommended me using another shampoo and washing it every two days or so.
She was totally right! Cleaning your hair every day causes it to produce more oil to balance the dryness. Also the head and shoulders shampoo is really aggressive to oily and sensitive scalps.
I recommend to anyone who's having the same problems to use a different shampoo (according to your hair type) and not cleaning it every single day, only when you need to.
Also, english is not my first language, hope it was clear anyways :)❤️
Thanks for sharing! I plan on trying other shampoos after I finish head and shoulder, but it has made my scalp less itchy :D
Tina Tomato try adding a few drops of peppermint and/or tea tree oil to your next shampoo it helps relieve itchiness
Paella OldTown yesssss thats so trueeee, i even get bald for heald&shoulders and my hair was so so oily, that i couldnt touch my head or be touch by anything cause that patch become so so oily omg PLEASE STOP USING IT

KnackeredNoodle Girl have you been to the doctors? Taken a blood test? Because one morning last year I woke up with a bald spot on the very top of my scalp and found out I had very low levels of iron. Been taking iron tablets every night for the last 8 months and I can see quite a bit of hair growing back which is a good sign.
Ever since I switched my shampoo to Mane n Tail and used Softee's Castor oil hair and scalp conditioner (as a leave in) I no longer have dry scalp
Most people grow a quarter of an inch in a month. An entire inch is very encouraging. This would be a great idea for someone growing out a bad haircut or bangs.
I’m watching this now because my baby hairs stick out like crazy. When I wear a bun or ponytail that baby hair looks like devil horns

yeah they seem a lil bit thicker too and lively
I really think it looks thicker and the comfort sounds amazing
It does look like it's gotten a little more volume in the after picture.
mix warm water with a table spoon of lemon and some aloe Vera gel in a spray bottle and spray and rub it in your hair before washing it. it will clean the scalp
Will lighten up the hair tho?

If my hair grew an inch a month, I'd reach my goal length within six months--with a trim. I use a lot if natural stuff on my hair, including oils, biotin, and a satin sleep cap every night. There was a noticeable difference in just thirty days. Very cool.

I do castor oil with a carrier oil such as coconut or olive or a blend and add a few drops of essential oil.. tea tree and rosemary are great for cleansing and growth ❤️
how often do you do it if i may ask? I wash my hair every three days more or less.
I do it once a week (when I’m being religious) but probably more often like once every week or two but I dont think it would cause any harm to do it more often!
I would recommend to not use essential oils in the mix. Dermatologist agree that people can become sensitive to frangrance after long use and get rashes, drier skin ect.
@@cristals8340 Hm that's interesting I've never heard that about essential oil since it shouldn't have fragrance in it if you are buying pure oil. But with everything you should try a little and see how your body reacts... plus you should be diluting the oil in a carrier oil not putting the oil directly on your skin! Hope this helps!
Hi, can we use peppermint oil and jojoba oil in the mix?
But Head and Shoulders is sooooo bad for your hair😬🥴
Tina you shouldn't put the castor oil direct to your scalp bec it's thick
You should mix it with coconut oil or..........
Then you can put it to your scalp.And don't put much amount bec it will be difficult to remove it from your scalp.
When you showed you're using head &shoulders I did this face 👉😬
You should warm up the oil before applying.
Also use a better quality shampoo than Head and Shoulders
@@sultanachowdhury6610 You can use Live Clean if it's available in your city. It's inexpensive and has different variety for different hair types and even dry scalp.
Yes, definitely warm up the oil! It will be easier to remove. I microwave 1-1.5 tbsp on a small plate for 10 seconds

It’s better to put it in a applicator bottle and put the bottle in warm/hot water. Then leave it for a couple of minutes.
yes. warm water to warm it up as microwaving the oil results in some of its nutrients dissapating!
I heard that warm water is not good on the hair you have to have a cool water on it.Is that true?
Hi, I have one doubt. Few months back I visited one famous Hair clinic. Exactly my scalp looks like your scalp which is shown in this video. But the reason for the hair fall is *Dandruf, dandruf blocked the scalp pore*. Is it wrong or you also having a same problem?
Really what changed my hair best was taking biotin, using a water filter in the shower and not using hot tools. Oh and stop putting a ponytail in it. I tried castor oil and others as a overnight mask and oh yes it was awesome! But the other things showed more growth and the oil caused me to break out if it gets on my face too much.
You got to be careful when you take biotin every day as a supplement, it makes people break out!
I’m having that issue now ! I’m shoulder length hair and I keep it in a ponytail but seeing breakage, I don’t want to leave it down because it will rub collar and fabric and break anyway... 😢 any suggestions
@@krissieg7862 you can put it into a bun, but that can often be uncomfortable because of the weight on your head, so perhaps a French twist style? It is a protective style and works on shorter hair
Ozioma Dibor hmm 🤔 I’ll try that today since I’m home. I’m not very good at doing my hair but since we are in quarantine I’ll give it a try ! Thanks 😊
@@krissieg7862 That is a good question because I can barely never get my hair to grow longer than my shoulders too. It gets thin.
I wish hair grew an inch in a month! Try 1cm😉
If you haven't already tried it, Henna is a great option to make your hair feel thick and healthy. It comes in a bunch of reddish brown shades or even black (although the black one could contain a certain ingredient which you should avoid). Since you already have dark hair the color wouldn't show up too much and therefore shouldn't be a huge concern. More importantly if you do try it out, make sure to use a brand that is all natural and uses 100% henna and or cassia plant. I did it a while ago and It's made my hair feel and look noticeably thicker and glossy.
@@aereio9141 was it black henna by any chance?
To be honest with you, your hair is VERY! BEAUTIFUL!!! ......so healthy and naturally thick and shiny. Thank you for demonstrating castor oil:-)
Take Biotin for great results. I’ve grown new layers of hair at 60 and we’ve finally convinced my friend’s daughter, who was virtually bald and very depressed, to take it. She now has hair. It’s cheap and the tablets are tiny. No mess. Also get your iron levels checked, a lot of young women don’t eat red meat these days and that can contribute to the problem. It’s really what you put in your body that helps. Pale skin and dull eyes can indicate deficiencies. Your inside health shows in your skin and hair. Young women should have glowing skin and bright eyes, if they don’t then they’re lacking nutrients.
True a hundred percent!!which company ma'am ?
Can you tell the biotin products u used please? It'd very helpful.
There can be adverse effects though, just like any and all supplements. When I used a very highly reputable biotin supplement, I started getting cystic acne. Tried a lower dosage from a different company and still got it. Only use it if you need it and avoid super high doses unless you know you tolerate it well.
@@aartivedi7142 hey , you can use biotin from any brand. Jamieson makes tiny tablets of which u only need one a day. Also dont forget a high quality multivitamin. Quest, jamieson, Adrien gagnon are all local Canadian brands which i trust
Taking biotin for hair works if you do a blood test and have a deficiency, otherwise they dont do much but it's still worth a try. If your biotin levels are within range then the problem lies elsewhere, like PCOS (me) if its not age/genetics!
Hi, so it has been a year. Have you continued using castor oil, how is your hair now?
how is ur hair now? im asking about the quantity/thickness and hairfall-improvment... do u think ur scalp has more hair now? thanks
If you have thin hair, it's maybe your diet. Try biotin, collagen and iron foods.
Nope. Thickness is genetic( thickness means the diameter of the hair shaft) . But if you are talking about density( number of hairs per square centimeter) that can be increased through growth aids like teas and castor oil)
@@politereminder6284 can you recommend any teas?
@@politereminder6284 Nope. Thickness and density are genetic. Unless you are excessivley losing hair due to malnutrition or an allergy to something you're putting on your scalp or in your body (or stress).
@@WakeupgrandowlNot entirely true about genetics. Density can be enhanced and maximized.
I started doing homemade herbal rinses and tonics for my scalp. I was shocked by how much denser my hair became overnight, how much more new growth I got and how much more resilient my strands became.
My hair had had the same density my whole life, so one cannot claim that I had had some kind of a health problem or deficiency causing the lower density levels.. I was shocked by how many new hairs suddenly sprung up and by how little shedding I had afterwards Apparently, the teas extend the growth stage and suspend the shedding stage, so my hair is definitely denser that it's ever been before
My teas include onion peel, and various dry herbs I have in my spice rack like oregano, basil, rosemary, moringa, bay leaf etc. *The difference is night and day. Same genetics, enhanced results.*
susanne anique please share a recipe? it would be great.
The scientists did a research about castor oil and eyelashes growth. And it looks like it makes more damage to them rather than making them grow.
Really?
Rex L could please post a link with some data? I’m not seeing that?
Rex L if you’re speaking of pure oil can be irritating and if it’s processed hexane absolutely do not use this on your skin.... so not... it’s not if it’s processed properly. ✌🏻🥳
@@MzClementine I'll try to relocate it. But I can say from experience, castor oil works great on oily, acne prone skin.
Am indian, and I use home made castor oil for growth and to maintain dark hair, so before applying warm it up a bit along with coconut oil it makes huge difference.
So is it the added oil or LACK of other "products" for a month ?
maybe if you used the oil a little longer , your front forehead would grow more hair.
I’ve been a stylist for over 30 years as everyone said already stop using the head and shoulders. If you have dandruff use a shampoo by Nioxin called Scalp therapy. I use to love to sell Solve by Redken but they changed it. And only use it 2 times a week. The caster oil should help your dryness.
Castor oil is the BOMB! I could never grow my hair long...past my shoulders. I have been using it for over 2 yrs now and I am 54 and my hair is down to my waist!!!!! It really works and I have told lots of my friends!!!!👍👍JUST DO IT!
did your hair get thicker, my problem is that i have thin hair like it’s badd but i don’t know if castor oil can make my hair thicker
Yes shopper's drug mart! Cant live without that store! I miss it whenever I go to other countries!
The problem is you used a mix of castor oil and coconut oil
coconut oil tends to clog the pores and doesn't suit oily scalp + how will you know which oil helped?
Why didn't you try 100% pure castor oil?
In addition: you're using H&S which is filled with silicones and mineral oil that again clog the pores
and builds up on the scalp.
I can definitely see a diff. Looks fuller. Gonna try it out. Thx - New sub
Nice improvement! Wear a satin bonnet and/or satin pillowcase when you sleep. Some essential oils could also be beneficial for your scalp. Also, look into rice water rinses. Have an awesome day!
Thanks for sharing!
@@TinaTomato You're welcome!
How do you do the rice water rinse?
Shea Soaps by Lara Where do you get rice water ? 😀
@@elizabethmiller7884 You make it with just rice and water. Soak about 1 Tbsp of rice in about 2-3 cups of water. Let that soak for about 1-2 days. Strain and then use in your hair. I usually add some hair conditioner to mine.
Thank you comment section! Im lucky I don't use head and shoulders.
My hair is very thin rip.
My hair is down to my butt now and I've been using loreal for past couple years. I like the dream lengths collection it has castor oil in it I think.
hi great vid, did you notice any changes un your lashes or brows?
Be careful with adding oils that have carbon chains between 11 and 24 to your scalp since it feeds malassezia. You could have a malassezia inbalance that is causing your scalp to have dandruff and thus inflame the cuticles that caused your hair to thin.
What do you suggest
WOW! Your hair looks so much better! Thanks for sharing ~ ! I will try this. I also rinse my hair in 3/4 apple cider vinegar mixed with 1/4 water. It makes a huge difference!
Stop using head and shoulders!
Head and Shoulders ..made my hair weak and fall out ..😭 ...now I use Jonson baby Shampoo .it growing well..👌❤
I heard that head and shoulders was linked to hair loss. I would use a good clarifying shampoo instead.
If you want to get the oil off easier you could try mixing it with another oil like a carrier oil, for instance argan oil? Also using too much castor oil will cause the opposite effect, a little goes a long way. Less is more here ❤ I'm also on a hair growth and strengthening journey so good luck to everyone else who is also doing the same!!
