Care: Amla Hair Oil Khadi

I am so happy about my newly found love for Indian Hair Care, Khadi Products and their Amla Hair Oil. It is not a big secret that I am a little hair oil junkie, I am always trying new oils. Check out my hair oil guide here. Using hair oil has been one of the biggest discoveries for me after I started to look into (natural) hair care and care for my naturally extremely dry tresses. I does make the biggest difference in growing your hair! If you are a little lazy and thinking a few drops here and there will not make a difference don't let me come over with a bottle of coconut oil(!) - because actually there will be a huge difference on how healthy and shiny your hair is. 'nough said. 

I wrote a little bit about Amla here and how to wash your hair with dried alma powder while benefitting from lots of volume and shine. 

Amla Hair Oil:

Ingredients (INCI): Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower Oil) · Emblica Officinalis (Amla) · Eclipta Alba (Bringaraj) · Bacopa monniera (Brahmi) · Cyperus rotundus (Nagarmootha) · Symplocos racemosa (Lodhra) · Ocimum sanctum (Tulsi) · Azadirachta indica (Neem) · Sesamum indicum (Sesame) · Cinnamomum camphora (Camphor) · Lawsonia inermis (Henna) · Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Almond Oil) ·Tocopherol (Vitamin E)

As you can see the main carrier oil is sunflower oil and almond oil. Infused herbs are Amla, Bringaraj, Brahmi, Tulsi, Neem, Camphor and Henna as well as a little Vitamin E to keep it from getting bad too quickly. 

So basically you get the full power of indian herbal goodies all in one bottle! You need to shake the bottle well before usage and the colour is a purplish dark brown. I know that when it comes to Khadi products the opinions rage widely - you either love their scent or you hate it. I personally adore the fragrance! I was afraid that it would be a sickly sweet smell but nope - very yummy herbs. A little fresh and musky. The best thing is that I don't get an allergic reaction! I am very sensitive when it comes to scents. 

As you can see from the picture above, I have been using quite a bit of alma oil - basically as a prewash deep oil hair mask on my scalp and length for 30 min - 2 h before my hair wash. The picture below is purely for your amusement with one of my acrylic hair sticks and my prewash hair oil mask :o) Let is soak for a while. The effect it had on my scalp was very calming and my hair became very soft. When used on dry hair the oil got absorbed easily into my ends. I love this product and I wish I had ordered all their hair oils! I would categorise the oil as a medium to heavy oil. 

The most important thing : I have less hair loss now! I am not sure if it was due to a more healthy scalp or if the alma actually activated something at my roots but I am really glad I am loosing less hair now. The first two weeks nothing happened, but now I am in my 4th week and noticed significantly less hair fall out. Give it a try - the least benefit you will get is shiny hair :o) I was not too sure about it when I ordered so I am pleasantly surprised. 

How are your experiences with Amla products and hair oils? Did you notice less fall out like me? 

Love, Zoey :*

Thanks to Khadi for providing the product free of charge. All opinions are my own and have not been influenced.

Flechtwerk: Sleeping Beauty

Hello Lovelies!

If your hair is very long or on the way to getting really long you will want to protect it all the time. Sooner or later you will want to find a way to sleep well, comfortable and hair/friendly. I have three options for you that will help your hair staying smooth and untangled.

Get a night time routine!

The same as a skin care routine you should develop a nightime routine for your hair. It will safe you lots of time in the morning and protect your hair from damage.

Here you can see my nightime routine:

• Comb your hair with a hair friendly comb. I use a horn comb with wide teeth.
• Use a few drops of oil on your hair ends. I love a good hair serum like ilikegreen from Aubrey Organics. You can also use a rich hair butter, recipe here.
• Then I spray my hair length with a little rose-water leave in. Recipe here. It helps the oil to get absorbed and my natural curls like moisture a lot!
• Braid your hair to keep it from tangling and knotting at night. Plus you will wake up with nice braid waves.

How to protect your hair at night:

Now there are three ways to protect your hair from the friction of your cotton pillow.

1. Use a silk pillow case. It will help your hair stay smooth and it really nice on your skin as well. use 100% silk if you can. 
2. Sleep with an english braid.
3. Use a silk sleep cap. 

I personally either sleep with my hair in an english braid or in a silk cap. It depends if my hair is a little wet from the hair wash before, because I always wash it at night and let it dry overnight. My cap is from honey fig and it is 100% silk in the colour ivory/champagne. It is very roomy & comfy and it only looks slightly silly :) I do braid my hair before I wear it but you can also keep your hair loose if you want. Keep in mind that you should wash silk hair wear as delicate hand wash.

You will notice a big difference! If your hair is curly it will love the braid! I personally can not sleep with a bun because I get neck pain and there is always some very uncomfortable pressure on my head no matter what sleeping position I am in. You can order silk pillowcases and sleep caps at honey fig.
They have tons of colour options and the quality is great! I have mine for a few years now and it is still in excellent condition. Get a hot pink one :D or stay with a more natural colour like brown, black or ivory. I got mine from their shop in Toronto during my stay there but they do ship internationally if you ask per e/mail previous to your order. Here you can read my little experience with sleeping caps (sorry only in German!)

I am excited what the girls do at night with their hair, let's have a look at Heike, Nessa, Bobby,  Wuscheline and Lenja !

Our next post will be online March 15th :)

Love, Zoey!

Toxic Thursday: Vegucated and educated?

I know a lot of you have watched food-inc as well and were shocked afterwards. I have recently watched the Vegucated documentary and it absolutely changed my whole point of view. I think it is so sad that we don't know what is really happening with our food and the animals we love. Even organic food is no exception here. This was something that I learned from this documentary. I can relate very easily to the 5 New-Yorker that are trying to live vegan for a couple of weeks and thoroughly investigate a little about what the industry is hiding from us and what we consciously do not want to see.

Is it normal that meat is more expensive than a vegetable? Do I want to eat a chicken that has it's beak hacked of, has no space to move or see the day-light and is full of antibiotics? A few of you may know, during medical school we have to work with corpses and because I have been for a long time in the O.R. and surgery department I stopped eating meat a while ago. Now the more I learn about it the harder is gets to think neutral about meat any more. I am vegetarian and not vegan but I totally get the point of people who are doing it all the way. I do love organic hair & body care and I think we all should try to see a little more than we know now. We get poised day by day and we are not even aware of it. Let's try to change our little world step by step :)

How do you think about the meat topic? Are you vegan and is it difficult to maintain this lifestyle in your daily life?

Love, Zoey-Louisa. 

Care: DIY Rosewater-Leave In Spray

Hello Lovelies!

I have been crazy about roses lately, I am a real flower girl from fragrances to real flowers. So why not make your hair smell like roses and lavender? Especially if you need to use nearly all your products as fragrance free versions due to allergies like me :/ BTW if there is interest I can do a post about hypoallergenic skincare. I am sadly a skin professional now. Here we go with this simple and easy leave-in spray. The original spray was again inspired by Mata's mix from the LHN.

What you need:

• empty spray bottle (flower spray bottle/an empty bottle from deodorant/ previous detangled sprays!)
• half a cup of distilled water
• 1 teaspoon of glycerin ( you can buy a small bottle at the pharmacy)
• half a cup of rose water (buy here or check your well stocked super-market at baking supplies)
• 2-3 drops of pure lavender essential oil
• 6 drops of almond oil

How to:

1. Mix water and rosewater
2. add glycerin and almond oil - shake well
3. add lavender oil!

That's it! It is a great hair-refreshener, if your hair is super dry you can increase the amount of oil. I am currently using about a tablespoon because my ends got super dry from the winter heat. It smells very floral and heavenly fresh and will last you a few weeks because the glycerin acts as a preservative. It can act as a skin toner at the same time btw! Shake well before you use it to dilute the oil evenly. If your hair needs more volume you can add hydrolyzed silk protein. Just about 5 drops, or even keratin drops. 

Do you use a leave-in spray? Or do you prefer pure oil?

*I am posting in english now to solve the bilingual issue, if any of my german readers don't agree please leave a comment so I can try to figure out a new solution :o) *

Love, Zoey-Louisa.

Ficcare: Snow White & Rose Red

Hello Lovelies,

Another hair jewellery post :p Cultmate got my reserved hair clips from over 6 months ago! The silky is a bright warm red with champagne coloured metal and the honey marble colour is an absolute classic clip that goes well with all hair colours and clothes. Sorry for the really bad picture quality, it gets dark so quickly and daylight vanishes almost everyday before I can come home from my long days at work. Did you get any of the new clips? I still have not tried the acetate versions. I am waiting impatiently for a silky green clip as well, I will keep you updated :D The red looks really nice with black and white clothes and gives you a really happy bright red dot. I was not too sure if the red would match my orange tones auburn, but now I think it looks ok. Silky orange might be better though!

Care : DIY Whipped Coconut Body Butter

Shea Sahne ist ein klassisches sehr einfaches Rezept das für eine tolle Bodybutter sorgt die sehr einfach zu machen ist und voller guter Zutaten steckt. Das Original Rezept stammt aus dem Beauty Cosmos, einer deutschen Selbstruehrerseite, wobei es schwierig ist das genau zu sagen da es extrem beliebt ist und schon tausend mal neu zusammengestellt wurde. 

Ich habe leider eine Menge Allergien, die irgendwie auch immer mehr werden von Jahr zu Jahr und extrem trockene Haut. Sheabutter ist eine sehr gute Alternative zu meiner herkömmlichen Bodylotion aus der Apotheke die mit 16 Euro ziemlich teuer ist. Sheacocosnussbutter rechnet sich auf unter 4 Euro pro Charge und man kommt eine lange Zeit mit ihr aus. Sie enthält nur zwei Zutaten und ist sehr fluffig. Am besten wird sie auf leicht nasser Haut nach dem Duschen angewendet und ist auch ein Zaubermittel Füßchen, Ellenbogen und Hände geschmeidig zu halten. Sie benötigt keinen Konservierungsstoff, da es keine Wasserphase gibt. 

*This whipped sheabutter recipe is extremely easy and full of good ingredients that will help you with dry skin and itchy patches. It is a classic recipe and I am not sure who invented it first, but I think it was Beautycosmos, a german DIY Cosmetics homepage.

I have lots of allergies against perfumes and preservatives and this cream is a great solution besides over-priced pharmacy products. My usual body lotion costs about 16 Euros, this body butter is under a 4 euros and will last a long time. It only contains two ingredients and is best used on slightly damp skin after you shower. The consistency is very fluffy and because there is no water base it does not need preservatives. *

Das braucht ihr:

1. Einen guten Küchenmixer 
2. Eine Schüssel 
3. 6 Essl. Extra Virgin Kokosnussoel (Raumtemperatur)
4. 6 Essl. Sheabutter (Raumtemperatur)
5. Natürlich Plastik oder Glascontainer. Ich habe einfach leere Cremedosen wiederverwendet. 
6. Bei Bedarf 2 Tropfen ätherische Oele. Wenn man Extra Virgin Kokosnussoel nimmt riecht alles natürlich nach Kokos. 

Achtet darauf das alles gute abgespült und sauber ist.

* You will need a good kitchen aid, a bowel, 6 tablespoons of coconut oil and 6 tablespoons of sheabutter ( room temperature!!). If you want you can add essential oils of your choice, I used coconut oil which has a slight and very nice coconut smell. Mix sheabutter and coconut oil in a mixing bowel and use your kitchen aid to fluff up the mix for about 6 minutes - until is becomes fluffy and creamy like shown in the picture below. Fill into clean plastic or glass container. Enjoy :) The body butter makes great gifts as well and can be stored up to two months. *

Nehmt je 6 Essl. Kokosnussoel und Sheabutter und fangt an die Menge mit dem Mixer zu schlagen bis sie so aussieht (ca. 6 min. ):

Danach einfach in die sauberen trockenen Behälter füllen und innerhalb von 2 Monaten aufbrauchen. Die Kokosnuss Body Butter macht sich übrigens auch sehr gut als Geschenk :) Wer nicht so viele Allergien hat wie ich kann im Sommer ätherische Pfefferminz- und Rosmarinoele hinzugeben, im Frühling Zitrone und Orange und im Winter etwas Vanille.

* If you are not as allergy prone as me ( I leave mine unscented with only the slight coconut smell that comes with extra virgin coconut oil ) can add essential oils of your choice. Use peppermint und rosemary during summer for a refreshing feeling, lemon and orange during summer and vanilla during winter months. *

Ich hoffe euch gefällt dieses Rezept, man kann es natürlich auch super als Haarbalsam verwenden, eine kleine Abwandlung kommt dazu nächsten Monat. 

Liebe Grüße, Zoey Louisa.

Care : How to Wash your Hair with Amla

Hallo ihr Lieben!

Heute war es soweit - mein Bad wurde zu einer kleinen Schlammpfütze, mein Köpfchen ist voller Kraeuterkruemmel und riecht nach  Wald und Blättern. Richtig die erste Alma Haarwäsche ist vollbracht! Ich bin total begeistert und hoffe das ihr es auch bald seid :D Erst einmal ein bisschen Hintergrundwissen. Was ist eigentlich Amla und warum sollte man es verwenden anstatt dem doch sehr bequemen Shampoo aus einer Plastikflasche das so toll nach Pfirsich riecht und die Haare silikon-geschmeidig hält?

* Today was the day! My bathroom looks like a little puddle of mud, my head is full of little herbal pieces and smells like a musky walk in the forrest. I washed my hair with amla - an indian herb. I am over the moon with the results and the whole process and hope you will be too in a while. Let's start with a little know how about amla and why you should consider using it instead of regular shampoo that comes conveniently in a plastic bottle and smells like peaches. *

Amla,

wird auch indische Stachelbeere genannt und sieht so aus. Sie wirkt antiviral und antimikrobiotisch. Besonders gut wenn man empfindliche Kopfhaut hat und zu Entzündungen neigt. Getrocknet und zu einer Paste verarbeitet ist es sehr gut zur Haarwäsche geeignet und pflegt die Haare ebenfalls. Es verhindert Haarausfall und auch Ergrauen. Deswegen Vorsicht bei blonden Haaren. Es ist super für dunkle, braune oder rote Haare geeignet da es die Farbintensität erhöht. Es sorgt für Glanz und stärkt ebenso Haarwurzeln und Haarschaft.

*Amla is also called indian gooseberry. It has antiviral and antimicrobial effects, prevents infections of the scalp, strengthens roots and prevents hair loss. It enhances colour, so be careful with blonde hair. It is a natural hair cleanser when mixed to a paste. It gives the hair shine and strength. *

Haare mit Amla waschen:

Erst einmal vorweg - natürlich dauert die Wäsche etwas, man muss die Paste vorbereiten und sich ein wenig Zeit dafür nehmen. Je häufiger man wäscht umso anstrengender kann es also werden. Ich wasche nur einmal die Woche und mir macht Haarpflege richtig viel Spass, man kann es in ein kleines Beauty Ritual einbauen und neben dem Gesichtspeeling, eine Maske machen, sich Füßchen und Fingernägel lackieren, vorher eine Haaroelkur mit Kokosnussoel machen und dann währen dessen das Amla Pulver mischen.

*Just so that you know, of course it takes a little longer to wash your hair with Amla than your regular Shampoo, you need to prepare the mix and rinse well. The more often you wash the more difficult it can be. I only wash once a week at the moment and I enjoy hair care a lot. You can start your own beauty day do a facial peeling and deep moisturising , paint toes and fingernails and do a coconut-oil hair mask while you are mixing the alma powder. *

• Ca. 3 Essl. Amlapulver mit 200 ml kochendem Wasser in einer hitzebeständigen Schüssel mixen.
• Min. 2 h oder besser über Nacht (hab ich so gemacht) stehen lassen damit alles gut quellen kann. 
• Die Haare nass machen und dann die Paste in Kopfhaut und Längen einmassieren. Ich habe einfach die Schüssel mitgenommen aber das nächste Mal fülle ich alles in eine leere Shampooflasche. 
• Nicht wundern - es ist etwas körnig und merkwürdig. Einfach weiter massieren und so tun als würde man Shampoo verwenden. 
• Haare fuer 3-5 min mit einer wasserfesten Haarstab hochbinden und einwirken lassen.
• Mit viel warmen klarem Wasser ausspülen. 
• Das war es schon - an der Luft trocknen lassen und ab und an kämmen ! Die Haare fühlen sich sehr voluminös und erst ganz hart an wenn sie nass sind - beim trocknen werden sie weich und glänzend. 

Ergebnis

Weiche extrem volumige dicke Haare. Farbe ist etwas kräftiger als vorher, bei mir also kupfriger (denkt daran das ich vor kurzem getönt habe). Haare und Kopfhaut sind gepflegt und die Kopfhaut spannt nicht. Ausserdem sind sie total sauber geworden! Ich hatte Tag-7 Haare - also sie waren wirklich ölig und ich hatte schon ein bisschen Khadi Rosenöl hinein gegeben. Meine Größte Angst das sie nicht sauber werden hat sich nicht bestätigt :) - aber seht selbst. Die Trocknungszeit hat sich allerdings verlängert und man muss vorsichtig beim Kämmen sein weil man keine Glattmacher mehr im Haar hat. Ich habe nach der Wäsche noch ca. 1 Teel. Amlaöl in die Längen gegeben weil es wirklich zu viel Volumen war. Alma Pulver riecht übrigens total gut - nach Blaettern und Bäumen!

*Results were very strong thick tresses. The colour is a little stronger than before, but keep in mind that I toned my hair recently. Hair and scalp are feeling happy and hydrated. And my biggest concern : will they ever get clean?? Was not fulfilled, my hair is squeaky clean and I had day-7 oily hair with a little of Khadi Rose Oil in as well. The time my hair took to dry was a little longer than usually and you need to be extra careful during combing! No artificial smoothing help left in your hair. The smell is really nice - it is a woodsy natural smell just like forrest trees and very pleasant. My ends were a little to volumized for my taste so I put about a teaspoon of alma oil in as well.*

Hair after wash with indian amla herbal powder from khadi

Habt ihr Erfahrungen mit indischen Kraeuterhaarwaeschen? Das nächste Mal versuche ich es mit Shishakai und etwas Almaöl im Haarwasch-Mix um den etwas trocknen Längen entgegen zu wirken. 

Do you have tested alma and indian herbal hair wash as well? What do you think about it as an alternative to regular shampoo?

Love, Zoey Louisa <3

P.S. As you can see we are still bilingual. I don't know how to solve this problem! 

Freundlichen Dank an die Firma Khadi die mit dieses Produkt zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Alle Meinungen sind meine eigenen und wurden nicht beeinflusst.

Jewellery: Lotus Opal & Jade Ficcare

I really want to write more about all the tons of hair jewellery I have and since that is one of my resolutions for 2014 - let's start now ^^ . Today you can see my everyday bun - the braided bun with a lotus opal and jade border. I love the border colours, don't know why they stopped making them! I am excited to try some the new models as well, but I will need to wait for a special occasion since they are so pricey!

Love, Zoey. 

Flechtwerk: Preview and Resolutions

Hallo ihr Lieben!

Es geht hier nun nicht nur um eine Vorschau sondern auch um eine Rückschau der letzen Jahre! 2014 wird bei mir das Jahr der Pflege und Farboptimierung! Ich habe letztes Jahr klassische Länge erreicht und bin damit bei meiner Ziellänge angekommen, die sich von ursprünglich BSL über Hüfte auf oberer Oberschenkel (klassische Länge) verschoben hat. Ich möchte euch hiermit ganz gerne gesammelte Längenbilder der letzen Jahre zeigen..

Aber erst einmal etwas zu meinen

Vorsätzen..

• Indische Haarwaschkraeuter testen! Jaaa, sie sind schon angekommen, ihr könnt zusammen mit mir gespannt sein. Das will ich schon seit Jahren machen. Es wird ein riesen Gematsche und fabelhaft! Khadi hat einen ultratollen schnellen Versand. der erste Bericht kommt nächste Woche.
• Mit dem Rot spielen. Ich bin seit letzter Woche wieder mit meiner geliebten Schaumtönung Feuermohn errötet. Und ich mag es mal wieder sehr. Rote Haare bleiben einfach auch neben der NHF immer eine grosse Liebe.
• Laenge beibehalten. Naja oder vllt. etwas mit Mitte Oberschenkel flirten :D
• Mehr Haarschmuckfotos für euch machen.

Die letzten zwei Jahre ging es eher um eine schöne gerade Haarkante, ich habe viel getrimmt und überlegt ob ich nicht bei Hüfte bleiben will. Bis zum 4. Bild seht ihr reines Henna Pulver und ab dann die Schaumtönung Fuermohn von Rossmann - das Naturhaarfarbeprojekt geht also weiter.. 

Und sehen wir ganz ganz ganz weit zurück dann ist diesen Bild von Juni 2010 meine Haarlänge mit der ich gestartet habe mich um meine Haare zu kümmern, nachdem sie mir unfreiwillig von Taille auf diese Länge ge (ver)schnitten wurden. Ich hatte damals Stufen, einen Pony und auch eine starkes V welches ich über die Zeit einfach rausgetrimmt habe.

Ich hoffe es motiviert euch zu sehen! Ich habe also mit regelmassigen Trimms von 1 cm pro Monat meine Haare wachsen lassen und bis zur klassischen Länge 3 Jahre gebraucht. Haare wachsen lassen sollte vor allem Spass machen! In der Zwischenzeit kann man seine Haarpflege optimieren und viel schönen Haarschmuck kaufen und Frisuren lernen :). 

Ich bin gespannt was die anderen Mädels dazu sagen..

Unser nächstes Thema sind übrigens Schlaffrisuren!

Alles Liebe, Zoey.

The language problem.

Hello Lovelies,

I have been blogging bilingual for the last couple of months and found it really hard to keep up both language because my time is very limited. I have decided to blog in German only from now on, simply because the majority of readers are from Germany. I am really sorry because I know a lot of you are reading from the US, Czech Republic and France as well! If you really want me to continue in English please leave a comment below this post. If not I am taking it as a go ahead for German posts apart from the Flechtwerk Posts :)

I hope you had great holidays! The next post will be about hair resolutions for the new year and because I have been asked a couple of times I will post a summary of my long hair journey and show you a picture with which I started to grow my hair :)

Love, Zoey Louisa.

*Hallo ihr Lieben, ab den nächsten Posts wird es in deutsch weiter gehen :)*

Care : Top 5 Oils for Long Hair

Hello Lovelies!

I have wanted to write this post and share my extensive knowledge ehem of 5 years of testing nearly every oil that is available with you :) First of all we are talking about natural, unrefined high quality oils here. Try to buy the best quality that you can find to maximise the effect they have on your hair. Look for labels like extra virgin or organic.

1. Coconut Oil! 

Every girl with long hair needs to have a bottle in her closet! The unrefined version smells heavenly, the effect is amazing if you continue to use it over a long time. I use nearly 5 tablespoons and apply it on my dry hair , let it sit overnight or 30 min- 2 h before every wash. Maybe this is what made the biggest difference while I was growing my hair. You can also try fun fragrance versions like Dabur Vatika and Monoi. 

2. Argan Oil

My second favourite oil is argan oil. I love the effect even more than coconut oil, but it is really expensive and if you are a poor student like me, it is going to be hard to use it in the same splendid way as coconut oil. Argan oil is a rich oil with a runny texture, that will soak up into your hair easier than coconut oil. It can smell funny, so do test different brands and don't give up. I had once a bottle that smelled horrible like goats, the newer one I have smells just nutty. It is a great eye make up remover btw! Just add a few drops on a damp cotton ball and gently press on your lids.

3. Olive Oil

Olive oil is just a basic oil that will always be available even if you travel a lot like I do. It is very affordable and a great oil to mix with your favourite conditioners ( 3 tablespoons) and honey (1 tablespoon) for a extra bit of care and shine. It is a very heavy oil that I use best with any rinse out method, I do not use it as a leave in because my hair will not completely soak it up like argan oil.

4. Almond Oil

Almond oil is a light oil with a very nice runnier texture. It is very nice to use on an irritated scalp and a nice prewash oil as well as leave in oil. If your hair does not need a lot of care you can try almond oil if the other oils have been to heavy for your fine hair.

5.Avocado Oil

Avocado oil has the ability to smooth out frizz. It should be a deep rich green colour and has a slightly fruity smell. It a medium to heavy oil that is great if added to your shampoo and conditioner bottles (1 tablespoon per 200 ml bottle). It is very nourishing and nice on atopic skin as well. 

These oils definitely make my top 5! 

If I tell you now what oils I have used and tested over the last years you will think I am crazy :D I will tell you anyways because we all know that I am a bit nuts over oils ^^.

I am doing oil treatments on my hair before every wash so I use up a lot as you can see. I also constantly use them on my ends and as a leave in in between washes.

Oils I have tested so far include : Coconut oil, grape seed oil, macadamia nut oil, almond oil, argan oil, sesame oil, hazelnut oil, argan oil, olive oil, avocado oil, rizinus / castor oil, babassu oil, walnut oil, jojoba oil, apricot kernel oil, peanut oil.

How are your experiences with hair oils? Next on my list to test are Amla Oils from Khadi :)

Love, Zoey.
