I warm it up to make it thinner. I use a comb to part my hair at progressive intervals and put a single drop directly onto my scalp about 1 inch apart along the parts, being careful to stay 1.5 inches away from my hair line. In all, I put about one drop for roughly every square inch of scalp-- less than 0.5 oz in total. Then I massage the oil into my scalp with my fingertips for a few minutes to even out the distribution. Sometimes I use a blow dryer on low heat to further distribute the castor oil and aid absorption into my scalp. Note: I do this on dry clean hair and it does not look oily afterward. The trick is to apply only one drop at a time directly onto the scalp. My hair grows thicker with less breakage and much less hair lost in my comb. For the rest of my hair, if it looks dry or frizzy, I put one or two drops of castor oil (from an eye dropper so they are small drops) onto my palms. I rub my palms together to warm up the oil. At this point it looks like my palms have been moisturized-- I can't really see the oil. Then I lightly rub my palms into my dry hair, starting at the ends and working up toward the scalp. It makes my hair look shiny and healthy like I just got a fresh haircut. Castor oil has done great things for my hair but I have to be careful when I use it because it is so thick and hard to work with. **Q: does it make our faces greasy?** A: I use sunflower seed oil 70% , and castor oil 30 % , togather just quarter size . Mix it well and massage well on my face like facial cleaner for at least 15 minute then clean with worm wet towel 7 times..lso cleane the towle every single time on runny hot water.. **Q: Did anyone have success growing longer hair, or fuller eyebrows and longer eyelashes with this? Just to be clear, I don't have bald spots.** A: It's definitely helped my eyelash growth. About a year ago I started using castor oil for my lashes. I blended it in a roller bottle with about 1/3 castor and 1/3 coconut oil (good for killing off eyelash mites and other things that cause eyelash fall, as well as the fatty acids), and 1/3 pure aloe vera gel. I added around 6 drops each of rosemary, lavender, and peppermint essential oils. Shook hard to emulsify, and roll it on my eyelashes morning and night. Not only is it great for the skin around my eyes, but the peppermint and lavender are nice and cooling. My eyelashes have grown in thicker and fuller. It DOES take time, however. Because of the normal cycle of growth and shedding of your eyelashes, you're not going to get overnight results. Plan on doing this daily for at least 3 months before noticing a real difference. But it's worth it. At this point, I rarely even wear mascara. If I want extra definition, I'll just roll on some of my eyelash serum to add a little darkness and shine before going out. An additional note: castor oil is used frequently in Ayurvedic medicine for eye health and to improve vision, so there are other benefits to doing this besides just the cosmetic ones. **Q: can i use it with a flat iron?** A: I have never used it with a flat iron but I wouldn't suggest it. Maybe after you have flat iron your hair if you want to add some extra shine to your hair you can put the castor oil on but not while you are still applying heat. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hair elixir *by on Reviewed in India 30 June 2024* It's such a boon for hair.Had used it 7 yrs back and then stopped after getting results.Again purchased it a couple of weeks ago.If you leave the oil on hair overnight(alternate nights) and wash off with a mild shampoo next day you could definitely see the change in 2 weeks.Try to follow a balanced diet too.Now Foods please never change the quality of this oil .One I would like to suggest is pack this wonderful product in an amber bottle that would preserve its nutrients.Edit: diluted it with a little bit of extra virgin coconut oil and olive oil.Also a herbal powder instead of a shampoo to rinse hair whenever necessary ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good product.
