Amazing benefits, right? Now I know you’re itching to make yourself this hair serum! So let’s get on with the recipe:

DIY Hair Serum for Natural Hair

Note: I used a 1% essential oil dilution, meaning for every 1 tsp, I added 1 drop of essential oil. The safe dilution rate for adults is 2% so if you feel you need more scent, add 2 drops of essential oil for every 2 tsp. The recipe below uses 36 drops of essential oil so you’d add that multiplied by 2 which is: 72 drops. However, I feel a 1% dilution is enough. More than that is too overpowering!

What you need

• ½ cup safflower oil (where to get it)
• 1 tbsp Jamaican black castor oil (where to get it)
• 1 tbsp avocado oil (where to get it)
• 2 tbsp pomegranate seed oil (where to get it)
• 10 drops lavender essential oil (where to get it)
• 10 drops rosemary essential oil (where to get it)
• 10 drops ylang ylang essential oil (where to get it)
• 6 drops sweet orange essential oil (where to get it)
• Small funnel (where to get it)
• 8 oz amber bottle (where to get it)

Directions

1. Using a small funnel, pour in the safflower oil, JBCO, avocado oil and pomegranate seed oil.
2. Next, carefully add the essential oils, drop by drop.
3. After adding all the ingredients, close the bottle and shake well to mix everything up.
4. Your DIY hair serum for hair growth is ready! Store in a cool dry place, away from sunlight.
