Did you know you can create your own hair products? If you search the natural hair blog circuit you can find loads of recipes which you can try. Most are hugely accessible, since you can use ingredients which you would find in your kitchens, supermarkets and health shops. Here is one which I have found which I will be using in the near future.

Moe's Growth Oil (The Original)*

• 1 glass jar
• 6 oz jojoba oil or macadamia nut oil
• 2 oz aloe vera juice/gel
• 2 TBSP horsetail herbs
• 1 plastic squirt bottle (like the one for hair dye)

Place oil and herbs in the jar. Then place the jar in a pot of boiling water let the oil heat up. Remove the jar from the water and place the top on it . Let this mixture sit for three days so the herbs can infuse with the oil. After three days, strain the oil into squirt bottle and pour in the aloe vera. Shake well and VOILA!
