hair oil

Here is a recipe for hair oil which penetrates through the scalp on regular massage strengthens, nourishes the hair from root. Basic or carrier oil will be coconut oil.

1) almond oil- 25 ml
2) neem oil - 25 ml
3) castor oil - 10-15 ml
4) sesame oil- 50 ml
5) olive oil - 50 ml

if you need extra fragrance in the hair oil can add fragrance oil like:

1) jasmine oil
2) lavender oil
3) fresh cut rose oil
4) peony flower

You can make a wide selection from this vendor (not marketing for them) just to know the variety.

This hair oil can be used regularly for teens and adults, for hair washes, massages, styling etc.
          To make 250 ml of hair oil take 100 ml pure coconut oil in a pan keep it in simmer. Add castor oil first, then sesame, olive oil finally followed by almond oil in given quantity. By the time you finish adding all the oils to the pan it would have heated up which is fairly enough. cool the oil and save it glass container or oil canister or spray bottle or however you like. Mixing them is relatively a simple process so I recommend doing this in small batches for 3-4 weeks quantity, so that the oil doesn't turn rancid.
Neem oil can be added for those suffering from dandruff and other scalp infections like dryness, itch any fungal, viral, bacterial diseases or even head lice.
Add the fragrance oil if needed only after cooling the mix before storing. For kids use once or twice a week whenever hair is dry, and usage of oil depends on the hair type, climate, body condition, and temperature also frequency of usage. It cools the body, mind and benefits the hair greatly that is damaged due to treatments, frequent shampooing, styling, stress and depression. If you find this is not suiting to your body or hair condition discontinue usage. Out of personal experience given the recipe. Am not a stylist, doctor or a healer. Some people are extremely sensitive or allergic to some oils so beware of your condition before attempting.

May be this can be called as grandma method which had worked for my family.
