Lavender/Rosemary Hair Oil
• 1 oz. oil of Rosemary
• 1/8 oz. oil of Lavender
Quantity: Enough for about 6 months of use.
To Make: Simply mix the two oils together and store in the dark or in a small amber or light-proof bottle.
To Use: Put a few drops of the oil on your palm, brush your palm against your hairbrush and then brush your hair.
Tip: Proper Hair Brushing: Every day, rain or shine, men and women should thoroughly brush the hair. Brushing dislodges dirt and distributes the natural hair oils. Bend at the waist (this increases circulation to the scalp) and massage the scalp with fingertips. Then brush hair starting at the nape of the neck with long easy strokes from nape to ends. Follow each of the brush strokes with your other hand to eliminate static electricity. Brush about 100 strokes in this upside down position. This is guaranteed to give new life to your hair.

Re: trusted and tried tips for beautiful skin and hair
friends...do you have any good thing to pigmentation in face?
Re: trusted and tried tips for beautiful skin and hair
Can I just add here that if you're using egg in your hair, TEST it out first on a small section of your hair. It doesn't suit everyone and when I used it a few weeks ago, it made me depressed to see how much hair came out. Same thing happened to a few of my friends. Same thing with yogurt too. Since these mixtures dry up, they will make your hair tear. If you have dry hair as it is, I suggest you use oil.

Where can I buy these essential oils?
Gelatin is haram if its from a non-halal animal. Like pig and also if it is from an anilmal that has not been "halaled"
We usually buy "halal gelatin" from pakistan since its not available here.
Dragonfly, could you also please write the source of the information at the bottom of your posts.
