You were the first person to pop up when I was looking up historical haircare and oiling. Ever since then I've made all of your herbal recipes and I've only started this haircare journey for about a year and a half now. You have truly changed my hair and I can't thank you enough for that. My hair used to only be bra strap length and it was not happy. Since watching you my hair has grown from bra strap length to now hip length. IN A YEAR! I'm not even kidding this is crazy how well all of your recipes work. I'm still learning how often I should be doing things but hands down, your stuff works. Thank you for everything you've posted and shared. You've changed my hair for the better! ❤
Usually no growth means people "forget" that they visit the hair dresser every 6/8 weeks; honestly they take your growth right off. If you want to grow your hair, then skip the salon for at least a year, and do home trims maybe 2 times a year, tops.
Yes, I'd like to know how you wash your hair/how often you wash it, if you use the oils as the conditioner, and then how often you readd more oil to your hair ♡
My bottle arrived this past Monday. I did a deep overnight oil. This morning I went ahead and washed my hair with my castor oil bar shampoo. I used a little oil on my hair wet and let it dry natural. My hair is frizzy, coarse and very dry. I was pleasantly surprised that my curls dried pretty. I have never been able to have long hair as my hair stops growing right above my shoulders. I’m hoping this oil will grow it long.
@@777almond I hate to say, I have the slowest growing hair on the planet. It may have grown 3 inches since July. That’s it. I still oil faithful though. I look at it has a great hair mask. I want to try Catherine’s shampoo and conditioner if she ever comes out with it. I did not have luck with the clay rinse recipe at all. It made my hair very brittle.
So I did the oil treatment and the next day washed my hair with the clay / ACV rinse and my hair feels absolutely amazing! I have very long hair and it is always dry, but after one treatment it feels like silk. I am going to make this my go too for hair washing and ditch the chemicals in the shampoos.
I purchased the oil from Katherine and got great results. I have a super sensitive scalp. I have problems with putting any type of oil on my scalp however using Katherine's oil no problems at all. I did a oil treatment by slightly warming the oil, distributed on my scalp and hair. Slept with a plastic hair cap until morning. Shampooing and detangling was effortless. I have high porosity hair, medium density and I have 3C, 4A hair. A great product and the smell is soft, light and not overwhelming. Highly recommend it. Thank you Katherine.
I used to scoff at my ethnic dad who said put olive oil in my long beautiful hair as a young lady. He was right! I will definitely try your recipe now. Post menopause I am no longer dyeing hair now and want to give it some ‘life’.
I started oiling my hair last year as part of a homeschool experiment i started with my duaghter. I followed your recioe adding rosemary and mint, fresh from my garden. I stopoed oiling my hair briefly durning last summer because it was literally 118 for close to 30 days straight. Our ac went out and i was in and out of the pool all day long just trying to keep cool. Once the wether cooled down some I started oiling my hair again. Here i am a year later and my hair is 3" longer than it was last year at this time. I couldn't be happier. My hair is thicker, shofter, and so much more easier to brush. It even has a soft wavev to it now. It used to be very fine and straight and would break off at the ends. I couldn't hardly do anything with it. It was just sort of a whim that I measered my hair about 3 weeks ago. It sort renewed my intrest in natural hair growth and other things. I'm hoping for another 3" of length this year 😁
I like how you show the production process of creating these oils. Most companies just have their products on store shelves and people read the ingredient labels. This is a very naturally made source of haircare. My go to is usually dying my hair. The video considers a more natural approach to my haircare, without artificially coloring and damaging it. The scalp and hair strands are nourished and protected. There are not artificial preservatives in the products. I like how I come right to the source and get quality information about how the products are produced. I also like the use of language in the video. It makes me more likely to consider purchasing the product if the company owner shows how the products are made.
We just got our order of your hair oil and so far I have done 2 treatments to me, the hubby and kids. Can’t wait to see what results we have. We have finer hair that dries out and breaks easily. Loved watching your process making it and hearing about all the research you have put into each and every ingredient. Definitely a labor of love. Thank you for making this for us!
Hi Katherine, I received my hair oil about two weeks ago and just got around to opening the package. I want to commend you on your packaging. Everything is reusable or recyclable except the tiny piece of plastic that prevents leakage during shipment. You did a great job! I can’t wait to try the product… P.S. The blouse you are wearing in this video is gorgeous- I’m sure it’s a Katherine Original, also.
I have made your recipe for myself from your videos. It has been about a year and I have noticed a difference. I light blonde hair and fhe henna leaves to colour behind.
I just got your hair oil and I love how it smells and feels! I’ve used it twice so far and my fried ends are looking better already. My psoriatic scalp is less itchy too so bonus!
I had used the recipe shared in past video, I only had a few of the items and even thats been helping me. I need to bug my Hubby so I can order a bottle! because if I am seeing results with what I threw together just to try it, I would love the full ingredient oil!! 🙂
Even though I have made different oils sitting in glass jars I HAVE TO HAVE YOURS. JUST ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE your handmade with gratitude intentions hair oils. I just purchased and cannot wait to see it and use it. Thank you so much 💓
No skimping on this oil eh? It's a big bottle, Katherine! I stopped oiling my locks a long time ago, I have Seborrheic dermatitis and do have to be careful with that particular product. So my oiling days are over but I think this is an amazing project!
I need to try this! My hair is about 1.2 meters long, and I'm highly allergic to haircare products, including shampoo and conditioner. As a rule I only wash my hair once a week to minimize scalp reactions & hair loss.
I just bought this. I hope direction come with it. My hair is just past my waist and I’d like it to go to my knees. I also want healthy hair and you clearly know what you’re doing. I can’t wait to try it.
Now that I have watched the production shew pretty expensive but worth it. How often do you use it and is your hair unbelievably oily when you start using it? How do you wash it out?
You can actually color your hair with henna and olive oil, but it takes a lot of henna. I use twice as much as what you put in this whole pot. I use oil the counteract the drying of the henna, which it can if used by itself.
Love your video, one suggestion to the oil it using fractioned coconut oil, it’s less comedogenic and won’t solidify when cold, just to ensure it gets into the scalp and follicle it won’t clog it, amazing video ❤
Wow. I pre-ordered mine for the next batch! My hair is naturally curly, its a tight spiral curl. In 2016 I buzzed it off and had a buzz cut until Oct of 2023. It's growing, but I feel like it's taking forever, and just this morning, I thought I probably will buzz this off again in Oct since it's taking forever to grow. I think I will give this a try and see what happens. I am hopeful.
Hi Katherine! Hope you're doing well. I really wanna thank you for this oil recipe. I've made it before following your other/1st video about this oil and it helped me a lot. I just wanted ask, for olive oil, can I use extra virgin olive oil?
Omg, I'm so impressed by your dedication and experience with this hair oil! And I'm SO THANKFUL that I bought some because I don't think this recipe is for me! Ty ty ty ❤. Can't wait to see my hair/scalp health in the coming weeks and months 🙏.
I love your videos Katherine and I so long to have the journey you’ve had ! My problem is for over 5 years now I got seborhic dermatitis on my scalp and nothing works ! I’ve had major hair thinning and loss where the dermatitis is and I identified it as being dairy and sugar but have cleaned up my diet and the dermatitis gets worse I get all of these recipes and my scalp just gets worse Hair means a lot to us and I’m just over this now. I’m commenting with the hope that someone in the comments might have a remedy of solution for me and to say I love your nurturing and beautiful videos thank you for sharing 💛
I've experienced the same thing and I understand your frustration! Years ago I did a vitamin D3 & K2 protocol that I found online. I tried to find the website to share with you, but unfortunately couldn't locate it. It was pretty high doses of both. It worked really well for me! I also identified that our hard water was contributing to my scalp issues. A shower filter really helped, as did using an apple cider vinegar rinse. I recommend you get your vitamin D levels tested to see if you are low. Best of luck. ❤
Hi, I have suffered with eczema on and off most of my life but in the past decade or so it got much worse. I read the book The Eczema Detox by Karen Fischer then did the detox/elimination diet and it changed my life, I can't recommend it highly enough. It doesn't help all types of eczema/dermatitis/skin issues but I went and checked the list and your type is on the list. I hope you find something that works.
@@breedimech243 thank you so very much for this information I will check it out right away. Amazing your life was changed by her book I really appreciate this , all the best 🙏🙏💛
@@mirandarileydesigns hi thanks so much for these tips! I had stumbled across D3 info previously but ended up down a rabbit hole with probiotics which I eventually ran out of and there was no difference. I’m so glad you found a working solution I will definitely give it a try , thanks so much 🙏💓🙏
Could you slide the entire block of coconut oil out and use a knife to chop it into pieces? You could slightly warm the sides of the bucket to loosen the coconut oil. Once chopped you could store in chunks for future batches.
I've been shedding hair and losing so much that I was getting bald patches. My Doctor said it due to my thyroid medication but I had my thyroid removed over a decade before I started to experience hair loss. Since 2020 I have been shaving my hair off until I'm completely bald because I was tired of hair falling in my food, on my floor, I even noticed one day that the collar of my coat was covered completely with hair and even found it embedded in the material. I'm going to try your products and hope I can get my hair and self esteem back. It's odd how things work; I just pucked up my trusty hair clippers and was going to shave my head before bed. I saw one of your shorts and here I am 😂 Of course I had to sub immediately. I'm on disability so it's going to take time before I can place an order but I feel excited for what may be the best investment in a long time.
I mostly use oils on my hair. At one time I thought my hair was so dry it was mostly made of oil 🥴🙃😄 I have most of those ingredients but not amla yet. I haven't mixed powders with oils but... maybe an idea? Thanks for your video..
wonderful video! has adding msm caused dryness for you? i’ve made an oil with msm and vitamin c, and it was really drying. i’m wondering if it was the vitamin c powder?
Hello Katherine, thank you for your very, very interesting videos :) I would have a question. I wonder if it's necessary to trim, and if in history women actually trimmed their hair ... What do you think ? :)
Watching this AS your hair oil soaks into my scalp 💆♀️😅 Such a relaxing video! I love researching ingredients and what they do for us so this was right up my alley! Instead of hand filling each bottle, there are large time saving liquid filling machines that would be a good investment when making 300-400 bottles at a time! Just a thought for future batches 🤗
@@KatherineSewingit might take the personal touch away if you get a machine. Seems more intimate that you fill it by hand. Just my opinion doesn’t mean others would feel that way. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
I was wondering why Katherine used a spoon for the dry ingredients when putting them into a big measuring cup-bowl? Could use a mug, or scoop, or pour through a wide-mouth funnel or simply just pour them out since they're such big batches?
What an intesting set of events that led me to find this channel. I have been using Caster oil on my eyebrows and lashes for a few days and organic odourless coconut oil too. Totally love that. Do you ship to the UK at all?
Can you tell me what form the final product is in? I assume it's in a solid state because of the coconut oil. Does it need to be melted before use? What do you think about babassu oil as a substitute for coconut oil? No melting is required. They have very similar characteristics, except that babassu oil has a lighter texture and quicker absorption, while coconut oil has a thicker consistency and takes longer to absorb."
Hi Katherine! I bought all every ingredients from your recipe and website Amazon link but how are the perfect seize of every ingredients for a little bottle or a jar please? Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Elena 😍
Ayurveda has proved to have a long lasting effect on the body as well I really liked the way you explained the benefits of all individual items and the way you prepared the oil step by step it looked so fresh and potent it will surely be beneficial ❤
I've been following some methods of your historical hair routine lately, and my hair is doing really well, but I have a question about hair trimming should I trim my hair regularly, or it's not actually necessary? Because a lot of people tell me that regularly trimming my hair is good for the health of my hair, but did women at that time trim their hair often?
I’d say trims are necessary to keep split ends from splitting up the shaft. If you do them 1 time every season you only have to trim a very small amount just to keep split ends at bay. Like a cm or just dusting the ends essentially.
May I ask why regular Caster Oil and not Jamaican and/or Black Caster oil? Lots of people swear by it over “regular.” Have you ever tried it? I’m just curious. (Or was this it?)
Dear Katherine, I live in Austria and would like to order. Is the invoice included in the package? And does the invoice show the value of the goods and the shipping costs? I'm asking because of customs.❤
I saw that Katherine replied to another comment and said she does ship worldwide. I don't know about the customs questions, but I think it would be safe to assume that if she's willing to fulfill international orders then she'll figure out how to ensure those customers end up getting the products. Otherwise it would be bad for her business and she wouldn't offer to ship to any country. 😊
Somewhere somewhen Katherine had/has a video or blog post with recipe available for others to use, which I found over a year ago, and this is what I have written down to remake whenever I want: 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup coconut oil 25 ml castor oil 10 ml neem oil 40 g fenugreek seeds 1 Tbsp henna powder 1 Tbsp Amla powder 1 tsp MSM 2-4 drops each of lavender, rosemary, peppermint, and tea tree essential oils I don't know her ratio of jojoba oil in this recipe, but just play with it, everyone's needs are different anyway.
Watched my cat how he cares for his hair.Ye - so simple and his hair is nice and soft.I learned from him and my hair is nice and soft and growing fast ,without extra oils and products - just a bit water.😂
Hi Katherine.. you once recommended an app in one video to learn new skills.. I am searching your videos for that.. would you be able to point me in that direction
I get my hair colored. I dont bleach or lighten, only deposit color to match my color and cover grays. Will the henna react with chemicals in hair color and possibly damage hair?
I love using henna (the SMELL yes!) yet it seemed to make my hair dry yet this video showing one can use olive oil might be the answer. Thank you. I love your channel. :)
Hey Ms Katherine, are any of these things not for GREY/WHITE HAIR? WHITE HAIRED people want to keep their hair white and not darkened at all. I guess kist the olive, coconut, and such, maybe. Be interetesting to see which one of these would color white hair and which ones you can keep in for glowing white hair. Loov yiur presentation!! ❤❤❤❤❤
So, after oiling my hair and having it in a bun for two years, I have long hair for the first time in my life. Well, this weekend, I am doing this oil.
Funnily enough, I had heard a lot about coconut oil being great for hair, and I tried it once with a small amount, combined with about half the amount of olive oil - and my hair turned into straw. Never had that response before when using olive oil, attributed it to the coconut oil. Tried again a month later with equal amounts of each oil, and straw again. 😢 Turns out, there are a number of people who have hair issues with coconut oil.
I don't know where you live, but how do you handle humidity. I end up cutting my hair because during hurricane season, I literally break hair bands (the ones made for curly hair last a little longer but coukd still break this time of year. no matter how much conditioner or oil I put in my curly hair. The longer my hair the less curly it is because it weighs itself down and can't dry as curly. But it isn't straight either. It's just fluff. Let's just say, I didn't need to do much in the 80s to get the big 80s hair. It's at my bra band, and I'm tempted to hack it back to clavicle length. It's the most curly and defined at this length. Anything shorter is mushroom head territory. I have a great hairmask that I use. I found it on an Indian lady's youtube a decade ago. Egg, oils, yogurt. Etc. That helps some.
I couldn't really see how it's applied, and any before and after shots. But I understand that process probably takes a while and you just wanted to post this part of it. But I'd love to see how people actually USE it. (If you already have a video on this, let me know and I'll search for it!) Great, informative video, though.
Hi Katherine, I’m trying to preorder your hair oil but am unable. 1st, I can place in cart, and it shows it’s in cart but there’s no button to then make purchase. I thought perhaps I need an account. I set an account up and when I sign in it takes me to a blank white page. I’m on an iPad Pro. I’ll try again in a few days.
Hi Katherine, thank you for sharing your hair oil recipe for hair growth. This hair oil that you made sounds amazing. Can you please tell me if this hair oil thatyou made can also help to regrow hair that has been ripped out of the head? It's been over 20 yrs. and my hair has still not grown back or grown longer even though I have tried many times to regrow it by applying several natural hair oils to it over these past 20 yrs. My hair is still the same length it has been even though I haven't cut it at all. My hair has just stopped growing and nothing I've tried to do to help it seems to work.
The thing about hair growth that no one seems to ever mention in any of these hair growth videos, is that each person's hair has a unique hair growth cycle. For example, Some people's hair growth cycle may only be a couple years and thus, each hair strand falls out at the end of its growth cycle-- in that case, 2 year old hair strands fall out. So it only grows as far as it can in that cycle of growth. We're always getting new hair strands domultaneously while old hair at the end of its cycle falls out...otherwise we'd all be bald! Some people's hair cycle may be several years, such that it will grow super long. Of course, there are numerous & various factors that may affect that growth cycle. The health of the hair follicle may affect how long the hair strand can stay attached in the scalp. And we all lose hair strands daily (I seem yo recall something like ~ 100/ day, we just don't notice). Stress & various environmental issues & our internal health (physically & mentally) affects our hair growth ... the scalp, the follicle, the health of each hair strand etc What we consume also affects our hair growth & hair health.
Yea, I don't have it in my written copy of the recipe either. I watched the video a couple times trying to gauge how much she's pouring into the pot in order to include the correct ratio of jojoba next time I make a batch myself.
Could you share the exact latin name of the species of Rosemary used please? Some of them have oestregen like properties and should not be used by women with hormonal imbalances
A few things stood out to me watching the oil making process. You hadn't worn gloves wouldn't that contaminate the herbs powder in the deep bag also you didn't weigh the coconut oil wouldn't that throw the formula off?
Gloves are only as hygenic as the wearer keeps them, and can actually give a false sense of security. I washed my hands about 12 times during this process, never touched my face or anything other than what I needed to, and didn't actually touch the ingredients unless absolutely unavoidable. As for weighing the coconut oil, I did a ton of research and experimentation on how to measure my ingredients for maximum accuracy and efficiency. Using a graduated pot with accurate volume markings was the better option, and it's quite accurate within the system I have created. ☺️
Henna dried my hair completely out and all I can do is cut it... I don't straighten my hair or anything and it looks like I flat iron it three times a day.
Olive oil
Coconut oil
Golden jojoba oil
Castor oil
Neem oil
Fenugreek seeds powder
Henna powder
Amla powder
MSM powder
Except for two of the above, the rest are very common in India for hair oil and hair growth
Nothing new 😊
You missed the MSM powder
@@morphidae sorry

I also identified that our hard water was contributing to my scalp issues. A shower filter really helped, as did using an apple cider vinegar rinse. I recommend you get your vitamin D levels tested to see if you are low. Best of luck. ❤
Hi, I have suffered with eczema on and off most of my life but in the past decade or so it got much worse. I read the book The Eczema Detox by Karen Fischer then did the detox/elimination diet and it changed my life, I can't recommend it highly enough. It doesn't help all types of eczema/dermatitis/skin issues but I went and checked the list and your type is on the list.
I hope you find something that works.
@@breedimech243 thank you so very much for this information I will check it out right away. Amazing your life was changed by her book I really appreciate this , all the best 🙏🙏💛
@@mirandarileydesigns hi thanks so much for these tips! I had stumbled across D3 info previously but ended up down a rabbit hole with probiotics which I eventually ran out of and there was no difference. I’m so glad you found a working solution I will definitely give it a try , thanks so much 🙏💓🙏
Could you slide the entire block of coconut oil out and use a knife to chop it into pieces? You could slightly warm the sides of the bucket to loosen the coconut oil. Once chopped you could store in chunks for future batches.
I've been shedding hair and losing so much that I was getting bald patches. My Doctor said it due to my thyroid medication but I had my thyroid removed over a decade before I started to experience hair loss. Since 2020 I have been shaving my hair off until I'm completely bald because I was tired of hair falling in my food, on my floor, I even noticed one day that the collar of my coat was covered completely with hair and even found it embedded in the material. I'm going to try your products and hope I can get my hair and self esteem back. It's odd how things work; I just pucked up my trusty hair clippers and was going to shave my head before bed. I saw one of your shorts and here I am 😂
Of course I had to sub immediately. I'm on disability so it's going to take time before I can place an order but I feel excited for what may be the best investment in a long time.
I mostly use oils on my hair. At one time I thought my hair was so dry it was mostly made of oil 🥴🙃😄 I have most of those ingredients but not amla yet. I haven't mixed powders with oils but... maybe an idea? Thanks for your video..
wonderful video! has adding msm caused dryness for you? i’ve made an oil with msm and vitamin c, and it was really drying. i’m wondering if it was the vitamin c powder?
You are so inspiring and encouraging. Thank you for you!!!
Hello Katherine, thank you for your very, very interesting videos :) I would have a question. I wonder if it's necessary to trim, and if in history women actually trimmed their hair ... What do you think ? :)
Watching this AS your hair oil soaks into my scalp 💆♀️😅 Such a relaxing video! I love researching ingredients and what they do for us so this was right up my alley!
Instead of hand filling each bottle, there are large time saving liquid filling machines that would be a good investment when making 300-400 bottles at a time! Just a thought for future batches 🤗
Thanks! We are keeping that in mind for the future. For now we've been using large 100 mL syringes 😆
@@KatherineSewingit might take the personal touch away if you get a machine. Seems more intimate that you fill it by hand. Just my opinion doesn’t mean others would feel that way. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
I was wondering why Katherine used a spoon for the dry ingredients when putting them into a big measuring cup-bowl?
Could use a mug, or scoop, or pour through a wide-mouth funnel or simply just pour them out since they're such big batches?
When I saw you drinking your MSM was it a tinted color ? Mine is clear color. Also, do you recommend adding MSM to shampoo ?
What an intesting set of events that led me to find this channel. I have been using Caster oil on my eyebrows and lashes for a few days and organic odourless coconut oil too. Totally love that. Do you ship to the UK at all?
Can you tell me what form the final product is in? I assume it's in a solid state because of the coconut oil.
Does it need to be melted before use? What do you think about babassu oil as a substitute for coconut oil? No melting is required.
They have very similar characteristics, except that babassu oil has a lighter texture and quicker absorption, while coconut oil has a thicker consistency and takes longer to absorb."
Does this regimen work on both length and thickness?
Hi Katherine! I bought all every ingredients from your recipe and website Amazon link but how are the perfect seize of every ingredients for a little bottle or a jar please? Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Elena 😍
Can't wait to have a go at making this~
I have heard that castor oil can cause hair felting which scares me away from it. What do you think?
Ayurveda has proved to have a long lasting effect on the body as well I really liked the way you explained the benefits of all individual items and the way you prepared the oil step by step it looked so fresh and potent it will surely be beneficial ❤
I've been following some methods of your historical hair routine lately, and my hair is doing really well, but I have a question about hair trimming should I trim my hair regularly, or it's not actually necessary?
Because a lot of people tell me that regularly trimming my hair is good for the health of my hair, but did women at that time trim their hair often?
I’d say trims are necessary to keep split ends from splitting up the shaft. If you do them 1 time every season you only have to trim a very small amount just to keep split ends at bay. Like a cm or just dusting the ends essentially.
@fuzzywuzzythebackyardigans2283 Thank you so much for your help 💕
@@minluna3781 I would just say trim no more than a cm. Just to be sure you’re not taking off unnecessary hair.
Hello please i Jave a question to Your recipe for rhassoul clay wash: can i rinse my hair afterwards with raspberry cider vinegar or only apple? Tnx 🙏
May I ask why regular Caster Oil and not Jamaican and/or Black Caster oil? Lots of people swear by it over “regular.” Have you ever tried it? I’m just curious. (Or was this it?)
Yes, I have tried it. For the sake of this recipe, organic unrefined castor oil is just as effective. ☺️
I tend to have dandruff during the winter. Might this oil help with my scalp health?
Dear Katherine, I live in Austria and would like to order. Is the invoice included in the package? And does the invoice show the value of the goods and the shipping costs? I'm asking because of customs.❤
I saw that Katherine replied to another comment and said she does ship worldwide. I don't know about the customs questions, but I think it would be safe to assume that if she's willing to fulfill international orders then she'll figure out how to ensure those customers end up getting the products. Otherwise it would be bad for her business and she wouldn't offer to ship to any country. 😊
Still trying to find out how often do you put the oil on and how often do you wash? 🙏
Hi Katherine! Is this oil safe to use while breastfeeding ? P.s absolutely love your channel !
You could use a knife to cut it,loosen it up on the sides and scoop it in bigger layers or corkscrew out the whole section.
Could you put this oil in your conditioner bottle?
Hi, I really need help.How much do I put in of each into the bowl?Thank you
Somewhere somewhen Katherine had/has a video or blog post with recipe available for others to use, which I found over a year ago, and this is what I have written down to remake whenever I want:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup coconut oil
25 ml castor oil
10 ml neem oil
40 g fenugreek seeds
1 Tbsp henna powder
1 Tbsp Amla powder
1 tsp MSM
2-4 drops each of lavender, rosemary, peppermint, and tea tree essential oils
I don't know her ratio of jojoba oil in this recipe, but just play with it, everyone's needs are different anyway.
Watched my cat how he cares for his hair.Ye - so simple and his hair is nice and soft.I learned from him and my hair is nice and soft and growing fast ,without extra oils and products - just a bit water.😂
Hi Katherine.. you once recommended an app in one video to learn new skills.. I am searching your videos for that.. would you be able to point me in that direction
Can you brush kinky curly hair dry/with the oil without wetting it? Will this break the ends?
Hello Katherine
I would love to try your hair oil treatment. Can you ship to the USA and if so, how much is your oil?
Hi! She ships to the US and the link to purchase her hair oil is in the description right at the top 😊
Yes, we ship worldwide ☺️
I get my hair colored. I dont bleach or lighten, only deposit color to match my color and cover grays. Will the henna react with chemicals in hair color and possibly damage hair?
I love using henna (the SMELL yes!) yet it seemed to make my hair dry yet this video showing one can use olive oil might be the answer. Thank you. I love your channel. :)
What type of olive oil do recommend as there is a few?
Are your methods also for black African hair? I'm diabetic.
Hey Ms Katherine, are any of these things not for GREY/WHITE HAIR? WHITE HAIRED people want to keep their hair white and not darkened at all. I guess kist the olive, coconut, and such, maybe. Be interetesting to see which one of these would color white hair and which ones you can keep in for glowing white hair. Loov yiur presentation!! ❤❤❤❤❤
So, after oiling my hair and having it in a bun for two years, I have long hair for the first time in my life. Well, this weekend, I am doing this oil.
So are you saying your oil you've done hasn't worked then... Is why your changing to THIS oil?
@@slee7991 I haven't "done" any oil. I used oil to simply protect my hair, nothing like this.
Funnily enough, I had heard a lot about coconut oil being great for hair, and I tried it once with a small amount, combined with about half the amount of olive oil - and my hair turned into straw. Never had that response before when using olive oil, attributed it to the coconut oil. Tried again a month later with equal amounts of each oil, and straw again. 😢
Turns out, there are a number of people who have hair issues with coconut oil.
Is this wash out only or can it be used as a leave-in for very dry hair?
It can be used in small quantities as a leave-in hair serum.
I don't know where you live, but how do you handle humidity. I end up cutting my hair because during hurricane season, I literally break hair bands (the ones made for curly hair last a little longer but coukd still break this time of year. no matter how much conditioner or oil I put in my curly hair. The longer my hair the less curly it is because it weighs itself down and can't dry as curly. But it isn't straight either. It's just fluff. Let's just say, I didn't need to do much in the 80s to get the big 80s hair. It's at my bra band, and I'm tempted to hack it back to clavicle length. It's the most curly and defined at this length. Anything shorter is mushroom head territory.
I have a great hairmask that I use. I found it on an Indian lady's youtube a decade ago. Egg, oils, yogurt. Etc. That helps some.
Very informative :) thank you
How long is this oil stable for?
I couldn't really see how it's applied, and any before and after shots. But I understand that process probably takes a while and you just wanted to post this part of it. But I'd love to see how people actually USE it. (If you already have a video on this, let me know and I'll search for it!) Great, informative video, though.
Just browse thru her channel, she def has a video or two where she shows how she applies the oil and washes her hair.
Hi Katherine, I’m trying to preorder your hair oil but am unable. 1st, I can place in cart, and it shows it’s in cart but there’s no button to then make purchase. I thought perhaps I need an account. I set an account up and when I sign in it takes me to a blank white page. I’m on an iPad Pro. I’ll try again in a few days.
😢 im insanely allergic to castor oil 😢😢 will this still work if i skip it?
Can fenugreek leaves be used?
Do you ship to Europe?
Mam I have low porosity hair can I use this oil ?
Hi Katherine, thank you for sharing your hair oil recipe for hair growth. This hair oil that you made sounds amazing. Can you please tell me if this hair oil thatyou made can also help to regrow hair that has been ripped out of the head? It's been over 20 yrs. and my hair has still not grown back or grown longer even though I have tried many times to regrow it by applying several natural hair oils to it over these past 20 yrs. My hair is still the same length it has been even though I haven't cut it at all. My hair has just stopped growing and nothing I've tried to do to help it seems to work.
There's a good chance it can help to grow new hairs, and it can definitely help existing hairs grow longer.
Okay, good to know, and thank you. I appreciate your helpful reply.
The thing about hair growth that no one seems to ever mention in any of these hair growth videos, is that each person's hair has a unique hair growth cycle.
For example,
Some people's hair growth cycle may only be a couple years and thus, each hair strand falls out at the end of its growth cycle-- in that case, 2 year old hair strands fall out. So it only grows as far as it can in that cycle of growth.
We're always getting new hair strands domultaneously while old hair at the end of its cycle falls out...otherwise we'd all be bald!
Some people's hair cycle may be several years, such that it will grow super long.
Of course, there are numerous & various factors that may affect that growth cycle.
The health of the hair follicle may affect how long the hair strand can stay attached in the scalp.
And we all lose hair strands daily (I seem yo recall something like ~ 100/ day, we just don't notice).
Stress & various environmental issues & our internal health (physically & mentally) affects our hair growth ... the scalp, the follicle, the health of each hair strand etc
What we consume also affects our hair growth & hair health.
I wanna buy it
Do you have an updated recipe them the previous recipe? I don't recall jojoba oil.
Yea, I don't have it in my written copy of the recipe either. I watched the video a couple times trying to gauge how much she's pouring into the pot in order to include the correct ratio of jojoba next time I make a batch myself.
What can I do? I really want to buy this oil but I live in Europe 😢
We ship worldwide ☺️
Trying to find anywhere that you posted the link. Please post the link to order.
In the DESCRIPTION ⬆️ she posts her link to her website where you can order it.
My hair is already longer by just watching this video lolol
😂😂😂
Can we still find the recipe on your blog
Do you ship your hair oil to Australia? 🌏🦘
Wow thanks so much
Could you share the exact latin name of the species of Rosemary used please? Some of them have oestregen like properties and should not be used by women with hormonal imbalances
WoW!!
I didn't know that.
Thx for sharing.
Any reference links to info, as it probably depends upon the quantity & how it's used / consumed.
Thank you so much
A few things stood out to me watching the oil making process. You hadn't worn gloves wouldn't that contaminate the herbs powder in the deep bag also you didn't weigh the coconut oil wouldn't that throw the formula off?
Gloves are only as hygenic as the wearer keeps them, and can actually give a false sense of security. I washed my hands about 12 times during this process, never touched my face or anything other than what I needed to, and didn't actually touch the ingredients unless absolutely unavoidable. As for weighing the coconut oil, I did a ton of research and experimentation on how to measure my ingredients for maximum accuracy and efficiency. Using a graduated pot with accurate volume markings was the better option, and it's quite accurate within the system I have created. ☺️
My mother make hair growth oil with. Natural hair blcak oil result 100%❤
I am allergic to castor oil. What could I use to replace it?
Can you just make us a bottle of it and we'll buy it?😊😊😊
She mentioned in the video that this is available for sell on her website.
Fill the sink or bathtub with hot water and put the tub of coconut oil in. It should melt.
It's what I ended up doing, haha
love from india 🧡. i hope your company will acheave great success👍🏻my company also launching herbal hair oil in india. can i export ?
Henna dried my hair completely out and all I can do is cut it... I don't straighten my hair or anything and it looks like I flat iron it three times a day.
