My Theory on castor oil in regards to growth/thickness...

I really like the black castor oil but it's thick and syrupy (is that a word? haha) I use it on the perimeters of my hairline and on my ends at night and it's absorbed by morning. It's good schtuff!:)

Now my mom would say use it on your scalp (a good bit of it) to break up cold and pleghm. I did that and ended up with a hella-bad sinus infection (broke up but didn't come out).... should be ok if you dilute it? I dunno.

Castor oil is good stuff. I have a good friend of mine who has locs. Her hair grows fast. She told me that she just rubs castor oil, mixed with lavender essential oil for fragrance, on her scalp every day/every other day.

You may wanna get your hands on the pure natural stuff. The castor oil that's clear/yellow sold in pharmacies has all the goodness extracted out of it.

I ordered mine from the US. (They are based in NY I think) Black Jamaiacan Castor Oil (now IMHO this is how real castor oil should look and smell)

There's this book that states jojoba oil also breaks up the fatty acids that are on the scalp. She also said that that sebum on the scalp is what stalls healthy hair.
Plenty!

that's why jojoba is good for oily skin!

What was so stinky about it. It smelled of a very light nutty flavour to me.
