Hair Growth Booster Serum
Harness the powerful combination of onion, cloves, and curry leaves in a natural oil base for a hair serum that targets hair fall, promotes regrowth, and strengthens roots. Onion contains sulfur, which supports keratin synthesis and fights hair thinning. Cloves have antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, while curry leaves are rich in antioxidants and essential nutrients for hair health.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut oil (or mix with castor oil for extra nourishment)
- 1 medium red onion, sliced
- 10–12 fresh curry leaves, washed and dried
- 5–6 whole cloves
- Optional: 1 tsp fenugreek seeds for added hair strength
Step-by-Step Preparation
-
Chop and Prepare
Finely chop the onion for better infusion. Roughly tear the curry leaves to release their nutrients. -
Infuse the Oil
-
In a heavy-bottomed pan, pour the coconut oil and bring to a gentle heat (avoid smoking).
-
Add the onion slices, curry leaves, and cloves into the oil.
-
Simmer on low heat for about 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn brown and the curry leaves crisp up, but do not let anything burn.
-
If using, add fenugreek seeds at the start to let them infuse alongside.
-
-
Cool & Strain
Remove pan from heat and let the oil cool completely. Strain the oil through a fine mesh or muslin cloth to remove all solids. Your hair serum is now ready.
How to Use
- Pour a small amount into your palm and massage directly into the scalp and along hair lengths.
- Leave on for at least 30 minutes before washing out (for best results, keep overnight).
- Repeat 2–3 times a week for visible benefits.
Storage Tips
- Store the strained oil-serum in a clean, dry, airtight glass bottle, away from sunlight.
- It will stay potent for up to a month at room temperature.
