Ayurvedic-Inspired Hair Oil

Niambi demonstrates making an Ayurvedic-inspired hair oil and using it as a pre-shampoo treatment.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons fenugreek
• 1 tablespoon each of hibiscus powder, nettle leaf powder, bhringraj powder, and brahmi powder
• 4 tablespoons rosemary leaves
• About 3 tablespoons amla oil
• 1 tablespoon Jamaican black castor oil
• 6 pumps of Mielle Organics Strengthening Oil
• 2 tablespoons total of two Black Magic hair oils
• Extra-virgin olive oil, added until the ingredients are covered

Niambi intended to add cloves but forgot.

Preparation

1. Combine the ingredients using a double boiler and mix well.
2. Pour the mixture into a glass bottle to infuse. Niambi infused hers for about three months, but says a week or two is enough.
3. Reheat and strain the oil, then transfer it to applicator bottles. She adds a few rosemary leaves to the bottles for further infusion.

How She Uses It

On wash day, Niambi applies the oil as a pre-poo treatment after detangling and partially drying her hair. She works from the ends toward the roots. She also prepared some oil for daily use.

Niambi believes pre-poo oiling can help with length, growth, moisture retention, and shine. After washing out the oil, she says her hair feels soft and looks shiny, then she usually shampoos. For this wash day, she plans to use an Aztec clay and apple cider vinegar mask.
