OMG I LOVE YOUR OIL...this is my very first comment. I have braids and within week 2 my growth was ridiculous. I only could keep the braids for four weeks and even that was a major stretch. I walked around looking like my braids were a month old by two weeks and 2 months old by fourth week. I will try to make my own this time. Thank you 🙏🏾😊
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. I don't know many Etsy sellers who would do that. It is so kind of you and much appreciated. Keep up the great work mixtress!
I love ayurvedic hair oils! I do make mine too because I've the herbs growing around my house. Lol I've even added a ton more herbs to it including bamboo leaf, guava leaves, neem. These herbal oils are bomb!
Hi Afua, I haven't spoken to you for a long time, but have become obsessed with watching your wonderful videos! I just thought i'ld share my joke with you as i was highly entertained by it...my son more so than me! So, i had just spent some time, this evening massaging your wonderful, original (homemade) hair oil recipe into my hair. I, lovingly, squeezed the little droplets of this amazing oil into my scalp with great anticipation of inhaling the wonderful aroma that just makes you want to lay down and relax. When i was done I began to massage my scalp; using nice, gentle circular motions...just like you, my hair Guru! Ha! BARS! Loool. Once I felt that my scalp was nice and stimulated, I said to my son, "Aaah that feels wonderful! This oil is so light, you can hardly feel it going into your scalp...fantastic!" My, son aged 15, then replied, "Errr! Or could that lightness be because NONE of it has actually gone into your hair!! First of all, the RED TOP is still on it and second of all, due to the temperature, your oil has set cold in the bottle and hasn't MOVED since you started!🤣😂🤣😂" Well! The my humiliation was definitely 10 out of 10 that's for sure! 😂🤣😂🤣 but my son and I both have a wonderful sense of humour, so we both laught and laught about it; with my son saying he missed a great You Tube moment there! 🤣😂🤣 Phew! 😅 I hope you found my story entertaining! Thank you for your recipes! I love my TEA RINSE...at first it made my hair feel a bit brittle, but later that same day, it seem to break down as the goodness went in, then my hair stated to feel soft, strong and wonderful! Tonight, I planned to make your UPDATED OIL, but I've just found out I have no OLIVE OIL!! Damb! I thought I checked everything...PLEASE CHECK YOU HAVE EVERYTHING PEOPLE! GRRR! OFF TO AMAZON TO ORDER SOME ASAP! Can't wait to try it...with the bottle top OFF this time! By Afua ♡ PS UPDATE VID OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER'S HAIR PLEASE. ☺

I usually make tea with burdock root, calendula, curry, hibiscus, nettle, green tea, comfrey as spritz for my hair. Will try using them for oil infusion. But my hair has improved
I’ve just ordered this, so happy it’s for sale. Saves me having to commit to buying all the different herbs. Fingers crossed that this does something for my traction alopecia.
serena its really good. I 100% recommend it. It’s helped my edges a lot, there’s visible growth. I’m about done with the 4oz bottle, I used it every other day the first month and then daily by the second month. Ayurveda is definitely the way to go.
Great video. I plan to get some Bhringaraj, hibiscus, and moringa. I used what I had on hand last night to make a hair oil and this is a great base. Olive oil, apricot oil, Jamaican black castor oil, neem oil, tea tree oil, Rosemary and orange essential oils, fenugreek powder, aloe vera powder, amla powder, brahmi, marshmallow root and horsetail. I also added a little bit of Cedarwood essential oil to help with scalp and follicle stimulation. I thought about a little cinnamon essential oil but I don't want to overpower it. Or irritate the children's scalp. Thanks for sharing this.
I feel so enlightened by your video I can’t believe you don’t have more subs. Well you have a new one with me, I’m going to make this soon I can’t wait 😊 thank you so much for providing this information for free and saving me the time of researching everything!
I love that you use many helpful ingredient choices that have multiple properties, for healthy hair, hair growth and retention, and scalp maintenance when used properly. Thank you!
I’m so happy and excited that I came across your channel. I live in the UK and I usually order a hair growth oil from the states but it’s working out very expensive so I came on here to look for DIY growth oil. I’ve just checked out your store and no doubt I will be making a purchase from you as all the comments on this channel are extremely positive. I’m well excited!!
Girlfriend ain't playin!! Just stopped by to see how it compares to growth oil I'm concocting, and she's given me ideas of other useful ingredients to add. Thank you! 🤗 😘 This is going to be some almighty BIG bottle of oil. I'm throwing eerythang in it along with my kitchen sink. Cheers, sis 🍻
@@naturalbarnet2470Finally prepared it all 2 weeks sgo as I needed to source additional ingredients and applicator bottle. I normally use spray or pump bottles, which often get clogged up, etc. Got a random dye from our equivalent of a Dollar store and will use the applicator bottle. I will keep rest in a dark bottle to dispense into applicator..I will be back to tell you about my thick, healthy bra - length hair next year 😏Thanks again! 🙏
I need to go shopping! I'm going to hate how much I spend on all these herbs but I enjoy making oils and treating my hair (Which I recently cut and I'm trying to grow back fast). I know I'm two years late but thanks so much for this recipe. Herbs: Hibiscus flower- 2 tbsp- I have this fenugreek seeds- 2 tsp- I have this Calendula petal-2 tbsp moringa tea peppermint tea- I have this green tea- I have this Bhringraj powder- 2 tsp Bahrami powder 2tsp Aloe Vera powder- 2tsp- I wonder if I can use the gel coz I have the plant Amla powder- 2tsp Burdock root- 2tsp Ginger powder-1tsp- I always have this Ashwagandha-2tsps Oils: Jamaican black castor- I think I run out 5 tbsp; Avocado oil- 5tbsp- I may have some of this Olive oil- 5tbsp- I always have this Coconut oil- 300ml- I always have this Essential oils- less than 15% NO WATER!!! MSM- Maybe it's time I started using this
You should use amber jars for storing your oil. Also use amber plastic applicator bottle s for when you use the oil. The amber color blocks the UV Ray's from sunlight.
@@naturalbarnet2470 I had to use amber plastic bottles. Because my oldest kids with dreads would never put the regular bottle back in the linen closet. LOL kids
I just made this! I replaced the coconut oil measurements with olive oil and replaced the olive oil measurements with grapeseed oil. I used moringa powder instead of tea and added Bamboo tea. I added a little almond oil and also added 5 drops of tea tree oil & peppermint oil each. I hope that wasnt too much essential oils as I already added the 15 drops of lavender & rosemary oil each. I'll leave to infuse in a jar for a couple of weeks. I just hope I didnt get water in the mixture. I picked up a spoon so quick to stir it and didn't check if it was dry. Fingers crossed 🤞🏿Thanks so much. ❤ The reviews on your Etsy store are so good.
New scribe ! Thank you! ❤️. I was going through the same issues with my hair breaking off and not responding to the products I was working with. Now, I’m on this ALL REAL NATURAL “Ayurvedic” 🔥🔥vibe with my natural hair THAT I HAVE CONTROL OVER IN MY KITCHEN AND BATHROOM . So thank you for sharing . Thanks to you and Neki Cakes , I’ve found my way back home ! ❤️✨💫 Amazon cart and deliveries have been consistent for the past two days. I think babe is getting tired of breaking down box after box 😝🙈
LOL at your partner getting tired of breaking down boxes...mine is the exact same LOL. I'm soooo thrilled that your hair is flourishing also from Ayurveda. Let your hair shine and grow, Sis! Keep me posted! :)
Hello I ordered from Etsy thank you so much I only used it once so far but this is the best my hair has looked I love it I also got alot of compliments thank you for including the instructions I already ordered another bottle thank you
Ahhh your question couldn't have come at a BETTER TIME! I've got so many videos to edit but the TIME! The business has been so busy but I'm determined to put upload REALLY soon! I promise!! I miss you guys 😭 Thanks so much for checking in xx
First time watching your video. Nice job, thanks for sharing. I may have missed; but is there a shelf life for the oil? Great video, look forward to more!
Ive been binge watching your vids! Was thinking of getting a keratin treatment to strengthen and accelerate growth but I think this is a far more natural way and will give similar results. New subbie TY!
Oooo I wouldn't personally recommend a keratin treatment (aka Brazilian blowdry). You could use hydrolysed protein in a moisturising treatment (check out @greenbeauty) also! Both work amazingly at strengthening the hair.
First time viewer,wow! in depth demonstration of how you prepare the oil,l would love to try your oil that you make for customers,how can this be arranged?
After using this oil for almost 2 years, I can confirm that it does wonders for the hair: stronger, thicker, and hair density has increased incredibly!!!! I was wondering if I can use the oil on my body too: what could be the pros and cons? I'm afraid my body hair would grow too much 😅
Hi Afua, Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful recipe! I truly appreciate you doing so! I’ve watched your video many times and I love all the you have put into your recipe. May I ask, how long do you simmer before removing from the double broiler? I can’t tell if you said stir every 13 or 30 minutes doing so 4 times? Please let me know, thanks so much❤️
Newbie that suffers from Trichotillomania. Losing hair from the crown because of my hair pulling. I just ordered this oil. I hope this really helps. Thank you in advance.
Hello! I suffer from the exact same thing, this has been extremely helpful for me. Thanks so much for your support. I look forward to hearing how this Ayurvedic Oil helps you too.
Hi I loved your video. I have a question? After draining the oils from mixture what do you do with what is left? Can you do anything with it? Loving your videos keep up the good work xx
Congratulations for this clear, simple and useful video!!! 😄 Can I ask you how you use this oil? Do you leave it on your scalp as a leave in conditioner or you just rinse it out after shampoo? How often can I use it as a leave in conditioner? Many thanks!! 😘
Thank you! :) I use this oil every 3-4 days, so twice a week. I leave in on my scalp, massage and let it do its' thing as I go about my business lol :) No, the only time I wash it out is my next wash day (which is around every 3 weeks). A Leave-In Conditioner is best water based, so provide your hair with maximum moisture. Oil will never moisturise the hair but instead act as a sealant AFTER applying a Leave-In Conditioner. My personal favourite leave-in is by LottaBody. I hope that helps x
Thank you for this! I was already making an ayurvedic oil that I allowed to infuse for at least a week or more but I will try heating my oils a bit next time. I have almost everything you listed here but I'll be ordering the remaining ingredients and making my next batch of oil ASAP. My hair is so much stronger, and doesn't shed as much as it used to in the past.
Thank you for sharing this information. In order for me to get a good idea as to how this worked for some of you, can someone please give me some information as far as amount of growth versus time? For example, how much growth did you gain in, let's say, month, 2 months, 3 weeks, etc.? Thank you!
Hi, great qstn. Avocado Oil is versatile like other carrier oils and can be used for both. Just make sure the one you use is Unrefined so you get all the benefits
It's fabulous as a cleanser! However, I opted to not use it in my Ayurvedic Oil as it's for a different purpose. The recipe is 100% adaptable though, so use it if you like! :)
Can't wait for you to start selling this so I can try it. Loving the ingredients although there are A Lot. All I either use or have wanted to. Do you have a rough idea as to when it will be available? Tfs 👌🏾
NaturalBarnet I wasn't complaining, as I said I either use them or want to. I meant more in the sense of buying them individually to make myself, which is why I'm excited for you to start selling the oil.
It's now AVAILABLE! Please choose *V2 when selecting your Oil and you'll get exactly what you see in this video :) www.etsy.com/uk/listing/548201502/hair-growth-oil-ayurvedic?ref=shop_home_active_2
Thank you sis for all of your goody information. I’m going to try it, but how do you use the good remainings in your Shea butter if you’re using fenugreek seeds and not the powder?
Hey! Great qstn! I now use Fenugreek powder so that I can use it also in my Shea Smoothie :) However, I add Fenugreek Seeds in the actual bottle, so that it continues to infuse :)
So grateful for the update. But could you please tell me what if anything can be used in pool lace of fhe aloe vera & the peppermint. I'm highly allergic to both.
Hi, i am in the US and I wanted to try your Ayurveda Oil. I have all the ingredients except Moringa Tea which I will go purchase now. I was wondering, can I substitute the coconut oil for something else; for instance safflower oil. Whenever I use Coconut oil, it makes my scalp itchy. I have seborrhea dermatitis. I don't know if the two are related but Coconut Oil does not work well on my hair and scalp.
Hi 😊 Sure, there are many replacement carrier oils you can use. Safflower oil as mentioned, Grapeseed Oil, Babbasu, Argan, Sweet Almond, more Olive Oil are all great alternatives. Good luck 👍🏾
This is called a cold infusion and the herbs will not infuse as well. You will need to leave the herbs to infuse for at least a week for the herbs to fully infuse this way.
Hello, I just bought a lot of this products to make my hair oil. I was just wondering if the double boiler method was neccesary or if the heat could kill some necessary nutrients. Am I better off leaving it to infuse for up to six weeks without heat. Thank you so much for your recipe!
Hi Dorothy. Both methods work exactly the same; leaving for 6 weeks (a cold infusion) is simply a slower process 😊 As long as the heat is gentle, no nutrients are killed (which I why I emphasise to have the heat on a gentle simmer). It's also important for the bowl to not touch the water and rely on the heat from the steam for the same reason. This same method is what I've adapted from my chef days and it works amazingly 😊 Feel free to use whichever method you feel most comfortable with! Thank you!!
This is a great video. I'm going to try making something very similar. One question: do you think that the henna had something to do with your fast hair growth? I can't use henna because it loosens my curls too much and because I have too many grey hairs.
Thank you :) To be honest, I can't put my hair growth down to one herb - they all stand out on their own and collectively as outstanding. No problem if you can't use Henna, Cassia or Catnip I have heard are great alternatives :) Re: Greys, Cassia and Indigo?
@@christinajones7696 Thank you, I have used it once in a diy hair mask since the original post. I think my hair likes it so I'll be using it more often. Thanks for the advice.
jj You are welcome. Happy hair journey. I am learning so much about Ayurvedic Hair Care due to a severe allergy to Hair Dye that contains PPD. I just Ordered Henna, Indigo and other herbs from Henna Sooq and Cassia from Belle Bar Organics. I pray the Henna works, Gray Hair makes me look so much older than I am.
@@christinajones7696 Let me know how it works out for you. I have never dyed my hair but was thinking of using henna/indigo a few months back but changed my mind. I am ok with the grey. Good luck.

Since you no longer use the powders, how are you blending the ingredients into your Shea Butter? Great recipe, by the way! All of your recipes are wonderful. ❤️🤗
Hi Leah! Hope you're keeping safe ❤ I now make a separate mix of powers in a ramekin (1 tablespoon of each powder) and infuse it in a Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I'll add a Teaspoon to each mix. The contents are enough for 5 batches of Shea Smoothie mixtures. Hope that helps x Thanks so much! More are coming! Life is just crazy right now but I'm working on it! 😊
Hi, I've just made my oil but im left with all the pulp which i don't want to waste. Has anyone tried blending it use as a hair mask conditioner? I don't want to throw it away
Yes absolutely! Don't waste it! You can add it to your shampoo, conditioner, prepare your own masque, hair butter etc... the list is endless. The richness of nourishment in that is too good to waste :)
THIS OIL.... *PHEW* You HAVE to try this goodness - it feeds and grows your hair like NOTHING ELSE 😳😍 As usual, I break down the ingredients and its benefits, the recipe - PLUS I show you how I use it 😍 Btw, J-cloths and paper towels are NOT the same thing y'all. Paper towels will break easily and leave residue in your Oil, so I wouldn't recommend it 👎🏾 I hope you enjoy and benefit from all this info! Hit me up with any questions! 😘
NaturalBarnet don't you think if the ingredients were blended it will infuse better ( all the nutrient) in the oil because the cell structure has been broken?
Chioma Onwuanibe Hi Chioma, great question! Originally, I thought the same as the surface area is greater. However, I found that as long as the ingredients have been warmed through and left long enough to allow it to thoroughly penetrate and release into the infusion, the result will be the same. None of the ingredients are too large and non porous to not be 100% effective. Plus it makes the filtering process a million times easier!!! I applied the same method from how Oils and Vinegar reductions are infused (my background was as a chef) and the same method applied. I hope this answers your qstn? x
may be a stupid question but do we leave it in? and if so how long do I leave it in my hair before washing my hair again I have really damaged hair and need moisture ?
Yes, Afua mentions in one of her videos that at first she thought oh no! What have I done, but then she said the itching stopped and her hair has been flourishing ever since!
I'm sorry, I Meant: Can I Use The Leftover INGREDIENTS From The Ayurvedic Oil Mixture, (I Used Your Recipe), To Put Into My Mango Butter Mixture Instead Of Putting It Into A Shea Butter Mixture? I Sometimes ONLY Use Mango Butter, And Sometimes Mango And Shea Butter Mixture. By The Way, I've Made Both Your Ayurvedic Oil Mixtures. The First One, And Then I Saw This One, And Knew I Had To Make It As Well, Lol..I Love Them Both, And I Love Your Channel. You Have A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY! :) THANK YOU FOR SHARING, AND THANK YOU FOR RESPONDING BACK TO ME! :)
Hi! It depends on the cause of hair loss. Provided the hair loss is not caused from internal factors eg. genetics, health, medication, stress etc - Yes, I do believe the Ayurvedic Hair Oil will be effective with hair loss, as long as the follicles are still active!
I want to continue to infuse the oil for several weeks to months in a jar. Would I add the essential oils when I'm done simmering it on the stove and put it in the mason jar or do I add the essential oils after I open the jar back up when it has infused for several weeks? Also can I leave all the solid ingredients (fenugreek, burdock root etc.) to infuse for those several weeks. I also want to make bigger batches so I can just double the ingredients or are their some ingredients that are so potent that I shouldn't double it.
Essential Oils are best added when you're ready to use the Oil, so I would recommend adding them when you open the jar back up. Yes! The solid ingredients can be left in your blend. Naturally, the longer you leave it, the stronger the potency will be but it will not cause a negative effect to your hair (provided you have no allergies to any of the ingredients). If you wish to make bigger batches, I would add double the quanity of ingredients according to the Oils you are using. Just make sure you mix it every few days. Good luck!
Also, can you tell me how long the left over powders/ingredients last? Would they need to be Stored in the refrigerator, or can they just be stored in A Cool Dark Place, Like The Oil? Thank You Again! :)
Once opened, I would use the herbs within 6 months. Obviously, make sure they are sealed TIGHT so that they don't oxidise and stay fresh 👌🏾 Storing them in a cool dark place will do the trick!
I have all these ingredients and I have fixed this inside my crockpot overnight you might want to add also 1 tablespoon of pumpkin seed oil research the benefits excellent for hair growth also the shelf life if is 6-9 mouth I just love how we are talking care of our own hair health!

I added a little almond oil and also added 5 drops of tea tree oil & peppermint oil each. I hope that wasnt too much essential oils as I already added the 15 drops of lavender & rosemary oil each. I'll leave to infuse in a jar for a couple of weeks. I just hope I didnt get water in the mixture. I picked up a spoon so quick to stir it and didn't check if it was dry. Fingers crossed 🤞🏿Thanks so much. ❤ The reviews on your Etsy store are so good.
How did it go in making mine tonight
New scribe ! Thank you! ❤️. I was going through the same issues with my hair breaking off and not responding to the products I was working with. Now, I’m on this ALL REAL NATURAL “Ayurvedic” 🔥🔥vibe with my natural hair THAT I HAVE CONTROL OVER IN MY KITCHEN AND BATHROOM . So thank you for sharing .
Thanks to you and Neki Cakes , I’ve found my way back home ! ❤️✨💫
Amazon cart and deliveries have been consistent for the past two days.
I think babe is getting tired of breaking down box after box 😝🙈
LOL at your partner getting tired of breaking down boxes...mine is the exact same LOL.
I'm soooo thrilled that your hair is flourishing also from Ayurveda. Let your hair shine and grow, Sis! Keep me posted! :)
NaturalBarnet I definitely will sis ❤️
Excellent tutorial and demonstration. Thanks so much from your new subscriber
Hello I ordered from Etsy thank you so much I only used it once so far but this is the best my hair has looked I love it I also got alot of compliments thank you for including the instructions I already ordered another bottle thank you
💖💖💖💖
Thanks so much for sharing your recipe, I am a huge fan of hair diy! I will let you know of my results in a few months!
I love things like this. You’re a star. God bless you.
Also eat fenugreek seeds and amla for better results.
Would having fenugreek as tea be ok too?
Hi I just ordered this oil,I can’t wait 💖💖
Hello im from the Philippines ❤❤❤❤❤ im now collecting all you said ingredients haha. I will try this very soon. Thankyouuuu❤❤❤❤
I am definitely going to try it. Thank you! 😘
Ok, where are more videos from you?! We miss you! By the way, time for me to reorder more oil and smoothie from you too. ❤️❤️
Ahhh your question couldn't have come at a BETTER TIME! I've got so many videos to edit but the TIME! The business has been so busy but I'm determined to put upload REALLY soon! I promise!! I miss you guys 😭 Thanks so much for checking in xx
Thanks for the recipe where do do get your applicator bottles? Thanks
Any beauty supply store has them.
You're welcome :) Yes, as the person said; beauty supply stores. www.aliexpress.com, you can buy in bulk for great prices too
Thanks lovely
First time watching your video. Nice job, thanks for sharing. I may have missed; but is there a shelf life for the oil? Great video, look forward to more!
Hi Abi, thank you! This Oil will stay in optimum condition for 12 months😊 More to come!
Well, I'm ordering this oil from you. I will support you sister rock on with your bad self!
I appreciate you! ❤ I really look forward to hearing how you find the Ayurvedic Oil! X
This looks so good...
Ive been binge watching your vids! Was thinking of getting a keratin treatment to strengthen and accelerate growth but I think this is a far more natural way and will give similar results. New subbie TY!
Oooo I wouldn't personally recommend a keratin treatment (aka Brazilian blowdry). You could use hydrolysed protein in a moisturising treatment (check out @greenbeauty) also! Both work amazingly at strengthening the hair.
First time viewer,wow! in depth demonstration of how you prepare the oil,l would love to try your oil that you make for customers,how can this be arranged?
My Etsy shop :) www.etsy.com/shop/naturalbarnet
I made these for my friends Using your recipe now there bugging for more. Told them it's not free 😭🤣
Hahahahahahahahha!!!!! ROTFL!!!!!!!
Thank you! Gods many blessings!!!
Thanks! God bless! 😊
After using this oil for almost 2 years, I can confirm that it does wonders for the hair: stronger, thicker, and hair density has increased incredibly!!!! I was wondering if I can use the oil on my body too: what could be the pros and cons? I'm afraid my body hair would grow too much 😅
It definitely would.... and doesn't really do anything externally but internally a lot of these products do wonders.
Hi first time watching where can I buy it?
😳... Thanks always good to see new videos from u...
vavavoomsp1 Thank you! I know it's been a hot minute but I'll be more frequent! 😂
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!
Thank you!!!!
Amazing! Can this also be used to seal the hair ends?
Absolutely! 😊
Hi Afua,
Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful recipe! I truly appreciate you doing so! I’ve watched your video many times and I love all the you have put into your recipe. May I ask, how long do you simmer before removing from the double broiler? I can’t tell if you said stir every 13 or 30 minutes doing so 4 times? Please let me know, thanks so much❤️
Hi! I stir every 30 mins :)
Newbie that suffers from Trichotillomania. Losing hair from the crown because of my hair pulling. I just ordered this oil. I hope this really helps. Thank you in advance.
Hello! I suffer from the exact same thing, this has been extremely helpful for me. Thanks so much for your support. I look forward to hearing how this Ayurvedic Oil helps you too.
Hi dear pls tell shelf life of oil.....
Hi I loved your video. I have a question? After draining the oils from mixture what do you do with what is left? Can you do anything with it? Loving your videos keep up the good work xx
Blend them and mix with your favorite conditioner to condition the hair
Congratulations for this clear, simple and useful video!!! 😄 Can I ask you how you use this oil? Do you leave it on your scalp as a leave in conditioner or you just rinse it out after shampoo? How often can I use it as a leave in conditioner?
Many thanks!! 😘
Thank you! :) I use this oil every 3-4 days, so twice a week. I leave in on my scalp, massage and let it do its' thing as I go about my business lol :) No, the only time I wash it out is my next wash day (which is around every 3 weeks). A Leave-In Conditioner is best water based, so provide your hair with maximum moisture. Oil will never moisturise the hair but instead act as a sealant AFTER applying a Leave-In Conditioner. My personal favourite leave-in is by LottaBody. I hope that helps x
Thank you for this! I was already making an ayurvedic oil that I allowed to infuse for at least a week or more but I will try heating my oils a bit next time. I have almost everything you listed here but I'll be ordering the remaining ingredients and making my next batch of oil ASAP. My hair is so much stronger, and doesn't shed as much as it used to in the past.
This makes me so happy :) Nothing beats Ayurveda and allowing nature to do its' amazing work on your hair, skin and body! All the best! :)
Perhaps Coffee would also be a good ingredients ?
I've heard that coffee definitely has its benefits! However, I haven't used it personally so couldn't comment on it firsthand
Thank you so much, I would love to try this but I do not know where to get most of the seeds in Nigeria.
Hi can you please help with list of all the things you used in making the oil,thanks
Hi! Please watch the video for all the info you need 😊
Thank you for sharing this information. In order for me to get a good idea as to how this worked for some of you, can someone please give me some information as far as amount of growth versus time? For example, how much growth did you gain in, let's say, month, 2 months, 3 weeks, etc.?
Thank you!
Is the avocado oil you use for hair/skin or for cooking?
Hi, great qstn. Avocado Oil is versatile like other carrier oils and can be used for both. Just make sure the one you use is Unrefined so you get all the benefits
Good Morning, can I purchase ingredients from amazon? Thank you for sharing ❤️
Hi Lisa! Yes, you can :)
Where is the shikaki? I love that one for cleaning my hair. I use it instead of shampoo.
It's fabulous as a cleanser! However, I opted to not use it in my Ayurvedic Oil as it's for a different purpose. The recipe is 100% adaptable though, so use it if you like! :)
Hello, can I substitute grapeseed oil for the coconut oil?
Absolutely! 😊
Can't wait for you to start selling this so I can try it. Loving the ingredients although there are A Lot. All I either use or have wanted to. Do you have a rough idea as to when it will be available? Tfs 👌🏾
So3a I know, the ingredients are many but they all stand out in their own right 😍 It should be available next week!
NaturalBarnet I wasn't complaining, as I said I either use them or want to. I meant more in the sense of buying them individually to make myself, which is why I'm excited for you to start selling the oil.
So3a Naw, I was just agreeing with you Sis 😊
It's now AVAILABLE! Please choose *V2 when selecting your Oil and you'll get exactly what you see in this video :) www.etsy.com/uk/listing/548201502/hair-growth-oil-ayurvedic?ref=shop_home_active_2
Thank you sis for all of your goody information. I’m going to try it, but how do you use the good remainings in your Shea butter if you’re using fenugreek seeds and not the powder?
Hey! Great qstn! I now use Fenugreek powder so that I can use it also in my Shea Smoothie :) However, I add Fenugreek Seeds in the actual bottle, so that it continues to infuse :)
I just love it, thanks for the upload babe xx
So grateful for the update. But could you please tell me what if anything can be used in pool lace of fhe aloe vera & the peppermint. I'm highly allergic to both.
Hello! Sure, you can replace the Peppermint with Tea Tree or Neem
Aloe Vera: Horsetail, Comfrey, Hops, Nettle or Licorice Root 😊
Thank you so much
@@mettasauls3478 You're welcome 😊
This looks so good! I must try this thanks for sharing. New Subby here! 🎉❤️👌🏾
Hi, i am in the US and I wanted to try your Ayurveda Oil. I have all the ingredients except Moringa Tea which I will go purchase now. I was wondering, can I substitute the coconut oil for something else; for instance safflower oil. Whenever I use Coconut oil, it makes my scalp itchy. I have seborrhea dermatitis. I don't know if the two are related but Coconut Oil does not work well on my hair and scalp.
Hi 😊 Sure, there are many replacement carrier oils you can use. Safflower oil as mentioned, Grapeseed Oil, Babbasu, Argan, Sweet Almond, more Olive Oil are all great alternatives. Good luck 👍🏾
@@naturalbarnet2470 Thank you.
I love the video but can you make and sell to me, most of the herbs are not familiar here
Sure! The link to my Etsy shop is in my bio :)
Do you have any no cook oil infusion recipes?
If you don't mind, can you list all of the ingredients so we don't have to keep going back to watch the video. Thanks
Will the oils and powder work the same if I don’t boil them after they sit in a jar overnight?
This is called a cold infusion and the herbs will not infuse as well. You will need to leave the herbs to infuse for at least a week for the herbs to fully infuse this way.
Hello, I just bought a lot of this products to make my hair oil. I was just wondering if the double boiler method was neccesary or if the heat could kill some necessary nutrients. Am I better off leaving it to infuse for up to six weeks without heat. Thank you so much for your recipe!
Hi Dorothy. Both methods work exactly the same; leaving for 6 weeks (a cold infusion) is simply a slower process 😊 As long as the heat is gentle, no nutrients are killed (which I why I emphasise to have the heat on a gentle simmer). It's also important for the bowl to not touch the water and rely on the heat from the steam for the same reason. This same method is what I've adapted from my chef days and it works amazingly 😊 Feel free to use whichever method you feel most comfortable with! Thank you!!
@@naturalbarnet2470Thank you for your reply. May God continually bless and enrich all your endeavours!
@@dorothybiyere9367 Thanks so much💕
Do you use any preservatives for the hair growth oil?
This is a great video. I'm going to try making something very similar. One question: do you think that the henna had something to do with your fast hair growth? I can't use henna because it loosens my curls too much and because I have too many grey hairs.
Thank you :) To be honest, I can't put my hair growth down to one herb - they all stand out on their own and collectively as outstanding. No problem if you can't use Henna, Cassia or Catnip I have heard are great alternatives :) Re: Greys, Cassia and Indigo?
jj try Cassia Obovate. It’s similar to Henna but it does not change your hair color. Google it for more information.
@@christinajones7696 Thank you, I have used it once in a diy hair mask since the original post. I think my hair likes it so I'll be using it more often. Thanks for the advice.
jj You are welcome. Happy hair journey. I am learning so much about Ayurvedic Hair Care due to a severe allergy to Hair Dye that contains PPD. I just Ordered Henna, Indigo and other herbs from Henna Sooq and Cassia from Belle Bar Organics. I pray the Henna works, Gray Hair makes me look so much older than I am.
@@christinajones7696 Let me know how it works out for you. I have never dyed my hair but was thinking of using henna/indigo a few months back but changed my mind. I am ok with the grey. Good luck.
Do you sell your oil? Will love to try this.
Evelyn Osita I will be very soon, hopefully within the next week or so 😊
It's now AVAILABLE! Please choose *V2 when selecting your Oil and you'll get exactly what you see in this video :) www.etsy.com/uk/listing/548201502/hair-growth-oil-ayurvedic?ref=shop_home_active_2
Can I reuse the herbs to make another set after I have filtered the oil?
Absolutely!
How often can we use this on kids hair?
Since you no longer use the powders, how are you blending the ingredients into your Shea Butter? Great recipe, by the way! All of your recipes are wonderful. ❤️🤗
Hi Leah! Hope you're keeping safe ❤ I now make a separate mix of powers in a ramekin (1 tablespoon of each powder) and infuse it in a Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I'll add a Teaspoon to each mix. The contents are enough for 5 batches of Shea Smoothie mixtures. Hope that helps x
Thanks so much! More are coming! Life is just crazy right now but I'm working on it! 😊
NaturalBarnet Hello! You’re so sweet! 🤗 Thank you so much for always responding. Love your channel, recipes, and products! ❤️🥰
Please what brand and where did you get your calendula? The last one i got had bugs in it.
Oh dear! I buy it from MGH Wholefoods
Do u ship to Canada? Can u pls share the link
Yes, I do! 😊 www.etsy.com/shop/naturalbarnet
Link is also in my bio!
How long to do you keep it on the stove?
Can this be made in a bigger batch ?
Absolutely! Simply multiply the ingredients at your discretion 😊
Hi, I've just made my oil but im left with all the pulp which i don't want to waste. Has anyone tried blending it use as a hair mask conditioner? I don't want to throw it away
Yes absolutely! Don't waste it! You can add it to your shampoo, conditioner, prepare your own masque, hair butter etc... the list is endless. The richness of nourishment in that is too good to waste :)
I am going to try it. Thank you!😘
Jae Bea did it work?
Is this safe to use on a beard
Yes! My husband and many customers I have use it on their beard :)
THIS OIL.... *PHEW* You HAVE to try this goodness - it feeds and grows your hair like NOTHING ELSE 😳😍 As usual, I break down the ingredients and its benefits, the recipe - PLUS I show you how I use it 😍 Btw, J-cloths and paper towels are NOT the same thing y'all. Paper towels will break easily and leave residue in your Oil, so I wouldn't recommend it 👎🏾 I hope you enjoy and benefit from all this info! Hit me up with any questions! 😘
NaturalBarnet don't you think if the ingredients were blended it will infuse better ( all the nutrient) in the oil because the cell structure has been broken?
Chioma Onwuanibe Hi Chioma, great question! Originally, I thought the same as the surface area is greater. However, I found that as long as the ingredients have been warmed through and left long enough to allow it to thoroughly penetrate and release into the infusion, the result will be the same. None of the ingredients are too large and non porous to not be 100% effective. Plus it makes the filtering process a million times easier!!! I applied the same method from how Oils and Vinegar reductions are infused (my background was as a chef) and the same method applied. I hope this answers your qstn? x
NaturalBarnet ohhk will try your method of infusion . Nice one👍
@@lacuzy31 Let me know how you get on!
may be a stupid question but do we leave it in? and if so how long do I leave it in my hair before washing my hair again I have really damaged hair and need moisture ?
Hello after straining the oil into a bottle, how long will the oil last?
Hi! It'll keep fresh for 18months, provided you keep it away from direct sunlight
Is this the same one used in making the ayurveda moisturizer?
The ingredients are similar; but not exactly the same
@@naturalbarnet2470 what's the process please, or is it the video where you used powdered ingredients?
@@bolanleasala5928 Check out my homepage. You'll see a full list of my video 😊
This oil also makes your hair itch, which says it’s working to help your hair grow
Yes, Afua mentions in one of her videos that at first she thought oh no! What have I done, but then she said the itching stopped and her hair has been flourishing ever since!
Plsssssss does anyone know where I can get dis herbs in south Africa?? Would be appreciated
lovemyhair.co.za and essentiallynatural.co.za
How long do I leave on the double boiler?
Two hours should be enough :)
I'm sorry, I Meant: Can I Use The Leftover INGREDIENTS From The Ayurvedic Oil Mixture, (I Used Your Recipe), To Put Into My Mango Butter Mixture Instead Of Putting It Into A Shea Butter Mixture? I Sometimes ONLY Use Mango Butter, And Sometimes Mango And Shea Butter Mixture. By The Way, I've Made Both Your Ayurvedic Oil Mixtures. The First One, And Then I Saw This One, And Knew I Had To Make It As Well, Lol..I Love Them Both, And I Love Your Channel. You Have A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY! :) THANK YOU FOR SHARING, AND THANK YOU FOR RESPONDING BACK TO ME! :)
Stacey Andrus where did you buy mango butter from please
Does this work for male hair that has begun to thin?
Hi! It depends on the cause of hair loss. Provided the hair loss is not caused from internal factors eg. genetics, health, medication, stress etc - Yes, I do believe the Ayurvedic Hair Oil will be effective with hair loss, as long as the follicles are still active!
I sure it’s genetics for me. I’m 41 and I notice my hair started thinning a few months ago.
I want to continue to infuse the oil for several weeks to months in a jar. Would I add the essential oils when I'm done simmering it on the stove and put it in the mason jar or do I add the essential oils after I open the jar back up when it has infused for several weeks? Also can I leave all the solid ingredients (fenugreek, burdock root etc.) to infuse for those several weeks. I also want to make bigger batches so I can just double the ingredients or are their some ingredients that are so potent that I shouldn't double it.
Essential Oils are best added when you're ready to use the Oil, so I would recommend adding them when you open the jar back up. Yes! The solid ingredients can be left in your blend. Naturally, the longer you leave it, the stronger the potency will be but it will not cause a negative effect to your hair (provided you have no allergies to any of the ingredients).
If you wish to make bigger batches, I would add double the quanity of ingredients according to the Oils you are using. Just make sure you mix it every few days. Good luck!
@@naturalbarnet2470 Thanks! I cant wait to make my own infused oil.
Can low porosity hair use this DIY infused oil?
Absolutely! My hair is low-po and it works amazingly 👌🏾
@@naturalbarnet2470 hey how is your hair at the moment?
@@namename8120 It's thriving 👐🏾 Really need to upload an update video, will film and upload really soon xx
Thank you.
You're welcome 😊
Hi
Please if I want do bigger batch what is the measurement?
Double, triple etc the amount according to the quantities you need :)
Also, can you tell me how long the left over powders/ingredients last? Would they need to be Stored in the refrigerator, or can they just be stored in A Cool Dark Place, Like The Oil? Thank You Again! :)
Once opened, I would use the herbs within 6 months. Obviously, make sure they are sealed TIGHT so that they don't oxidise and stay fresh 👌🏾 Storing them in a cool dark place will do the trick!
