It is finding the perfect hair oil in the market to prevent hair fall and promote hair growth! There are plenty of hair products that claim they’ll help you reduce hair fall. But, I know you’re already vexed by those commercial advertisements. So, I today came up with homemade amla (Indian Gooseberry) hair oil that has helped me not only in preventing hair loss but also eliminating grey hair completely.

So, let me tell you one thing. Nothing worth comes easy. The preparation of amla hair oil takes a lot of time, like almost a day, but believe me, it is worth making. So, let us know how to make pure homemade amla herbal hair oil at home.

How to make Amla Hair Oil?

To make pure amla hair oil at home, you have to dedicate nearly 7 to 8 hours of your time. Till now, you may have listened that the preparation of hair oil will take 30 minutes to 1 hour. In that case, the preparation procedure heard by you is not so worthy! If you want to prepare pure amla hair oil that breathes life into your hair, it definitely takes time! Let’s see what we need to make amla hair oil first.

Ingredients:

·         Cold pressed coconut oil – 500 ml

·         Pure amla powder – 350 gm

·         Water – 4 litres

Preparation:

1.       Take a wide-mouthed vessel and pour 4 litres of water into it.

2.       Now add 250 grams of amla powder to it and mix well.

3.       Let it boil on simmer.

4.       Turn off the flame when the amla water reduces to 1 litre.

5.       Now, strain it and keep it aside.

6.       Again, take 100 grams of amla powder and add little water to make it a paste.

7.       Take 500 ml of coconut oil (preferably cold pressed) in another wide-mouthed vessel.

8.       Add the amla paste and 1 litre amla water (which is boiled earlier) to the coconut oil.

9.       Now, let it boil on low flame until the whole water gets evaporated.

10.   Filter when it is hot, using a clean cloth.

11.   Store it in a clean and tightly sealed bottle. 

Note: To know if the entire water got evaporated, take a spoon of oil which is boiling and put it on the fire. If it doesn’t make a cracking sound and stays calm, it is a sign that there is no water remained.

How to Use Amla Hair Oil?

Finally, homemade amla hair oil has been prepared and now, let us know how to use it! Just like there is a procedure for preparing oil, there is also a procedure for applying it. Just putting some oil on your hair doesn’t show you any results as it needs a gentle massage to the scalp to get expected results. Let me instruct you step-by-step so that you can easily understand what exactly I am saying.

1.       Take enough amla hair oil in a cup and heat it to lukewarm.

2.       Now, apply the oil all over the scalp, and then to the complete hair.

3.       Massage the scalp gently for at least 20 minutes, as it increases blood circulation.

4.       Let it stay overnight.

5.       You can wash your hair the next morning or just leave it like that!
