I can never decide what I want with my hair. When it’s long I want it short, and when it's short I want it long. Back in November, I cut my hair to shoulder length and it was great, but now I’m ready for long hair again. I like long hair for summer because I can easily throw it up into a bun to get it off my neck, with short hair that's not exactly possible. My hair grows quickly but still not fast enough, that’s why I enlisted the help of castor oil.

To help my hair grow and stay healthy this summer I purchased a bottle of castor oil from Amazon. Castor oil is great for hair growth— it helps hair grow longer, stronger and faster. It even works in balding spots. I started using this hair mask to help my hair grow a bit faster to have longer hair for the summer and to keep my hair and scalp moisturized.

Hair Mask:

Add to small bowl -

3 tbsp castor oil

1 tbsp coconut oil

1 tbsp honey

Warm 30 secs in microwave, stir (if not completely melted add another 30 secs)

Add 1 egg yolk and mix

Apply:

Wear an old t-shirt in case of drips

Apply mixture to damp hair, dividing hair into sections and applying at roots every 1 inch

Once roots are saturated, apply mixture to the ends of hair

Comb hair with wide-tooth comb

Wrap hair in shower cap

Wrap shower cap in hot, damp towel

Wait 45 minutes (the longer you leave it the more effective it will be)

Rinse hair

Use twice a week for 2 months, then once a week.

(I have naturally oily hair so to make sure my hair isn’t oily after this hair mask I rinse as much as the mixture out as possible then shampoo really good, condition the ends of my hair only and then shampoo again at the end.)

Thick like honey, castor oil contains fatty acids that accelerate blood circulation to the scalp, hence increasing hair growth. It also nourishes the scalp and strengthens the roots with the help of essential nutrients.

Honey attracts moisture and is full of antioxidants and nutrients to feed hair follicles, encouraging hair growth. Eggs contain protein that prevents breakage and fights dandruff. And well coconut oil is just a magical oil that can be used anywhere and anytime. If you don’t have a jar of raw, organic coconut oil you need to get some.

This hair mask will leave your hair feeling softer, silkier, and more manageable.

It will also add more volume and make it shinier along with helping grow hair. Castor oil is also great for eyelashes and eyebrows. Fill an empty mascara tube with castor oil and apply to eyelashes and eyebrows before bed.

The oils will absorb overnight and if used every night, in 2 weeks you will have longer, thicker eyelashes and brows!
