How to Use Castor Oil for Hair Growth (Full Method)
Prepare the Hair Oil Mixture
Mix:
2 tbsp castor oil
1 tbsp coconut/olive oil
3 drops rosemary oil (optional for growth)
3 drops peppermint oil (optional for circulation)
(Castor oil is thick; diluting helps spread it evenly.)
Apply to Scalp
Section your hair.
Use fingertips or a dropper to apply oil directly to the scalp.
Massage for 5 minutes to activate blood flow.
Apply to Hair Length
Rub a small amount to the ends to reduce breakage.
Heat Treatment
Cover with a shower cap.
Wrap with a warm towel for 20–30 minutes.
(Heat opens pores and improves absorption.)
Leave On
Leave for 2–4 hours, or overnight for best results.
Wash Out
Shampoo twice if needed.
Condition as usual.
Frequency
1–2 times per week for visible hair growth within 4–8 weeks.
How to Use Castor Oil for Eyelashes & Eyebrows
Dip a clean mascara wand or cotton swab in castor oil.
Apply a thin layer to lashes and brows before bed.
Use daily for best results.
(Do NOT let the oil enter your eyes.)
How to Use Castor Oil for Skin & Pain Relief
For Dry Skin
Warm 1 tsp castor oil between palms.
Apply to dry areas (elbows, knees, feet).
Great for cracked heels and extremely dry skin.
For Joint & Muscle Pain
Massage castor oil onto painful area.
Place a warm compress for 15–20 minutes.
Repeat 3–4 times weekly.
For Constipation (External Castor Oil Pack)
Soak cotton cloth in castor oil.
