Garlic & Clove Oil For Rapid Hair Growth

November 12, 2025 Written by GP Team

Dealing with bald spots can be frustrating—but nature offers powerful remedies that may help spark regrowth! This homemade oil combines garlic and clove, both proven to boost blood circulation and stimulate hair follicles, with other natural ingredients for thickness and shine.

Why Garlic & Clove?

  • Garlic: Rich in allicin, it increases scalp circulation, fights bacteria, and encourages dormant follicles to grow new hair.

  • Clove: Contains eugenol and antioxidants, strengthening roots, preventing breakage, and increasing scalp blood flow.

  • Extra Natural Boosters: Onion (sulphur boosts growth), black seeds/kalonji (awakens dormant follicles), castor oil (encourages thickness), coconut oil (deep conditioning).

Ingredients

  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, peeled and crushed
  • 1 tablespoon whole cloves
  • 1 small onion, grated (optional for extra regrowth boost)
  • 2 tablespoons kalonji (black seeds, optional)
  • ½ cup coconut oil or olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons castor oil
  • 10–12 fresh curry leaves (optional)

Method

  1. Infuse the Oil:

    • Add coconut/olive oil and castor oil to a heavy-bottomed pan.

    • Add crushed garlic, whole cloves, grated onion, kalonji, and curry leaves.

    • Heat gently on the lowest flame for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Do NOT overheat or let it smoke.

    • Allow to cool completely.

  2. Strain & Store:

    • Strain the oil with a fine sieve or muslin cloth into a glass bottle.

    • Discard the solids and store oil in a cool, dry place or refrigerate for freshness.

How to Use

  • Take a small amount of oil and massage it directly onto the bald patch and surrounding scalp.
  • Massage in gentle, circular movements for 5–10 minutes.
  • Leave for 1–3 hours (or overnight), then wash with a mild shampoo.
  • Use 3–4 times a week for best results and visible improvement.

Pro Tips

  • Always do a patch test before full use—garlic and onion can be strong for sensitive skin.
  • Pair with a diet rich in protein, leafy greens, and plenty of water for optimal results.
  • Avoid styling products and harsh treatments while using this oil.
  • With consistent use, this garlic and clove-infused oil may help awaken hair follicles, support regrowth on bald patches, and return your hair to its natural fullness—naturally and safely!
