So, why not take control over the ingredients and make one on our own? 

I do not buy hair oil. My mother makes one for me. I have been religiously using it for the last few years and the results being satisfactory, I decided to share everything about my mother’s DIY hair oil. The best thing about this hair oil recipe is that it uses easy to grab inexpensive ingredients, involves simple preparation method and is not time consuming at all. The oil will be ready before you finish watching a Netflix series episode.
