for chie and eva -- olive oil has more uses than for cooking. :)
my sicilian aunt used olive oil on her face for decades. when she was in her 80s she still had no wrinkles on her face or neck.
i use extra virgin olive oil, by the way.

Combine equal quantities of Olive oil, Coconut oil and almond oil. Warm bottle of mixture in bowl of hot water. Use fingertips to gently massage warm oil mixture onto your scalp in circular movement for about 15mins. Place shower cap over head for half an hour. Shampoo and condition. Treat twice weekly - Also GENTLY massage scalp daily which helps stimulate blood to your scalp.Strengthens and stops hair loss. Also take Biotin tablets.

Thankyou for this hair conditioner recipe. I do however believe & agree with some of the other entries, that hair health comes from within & no matter what you do to the outside, it won't make it any healthier. But, conditioning it & applying natural treatments is good to prevent outside damage such as blow drying, weather, heat, chemicals etc.
Yes, to eating a healthy diet & less sugars. More quality protein & nuts, seeds, seaweed, natural yoghurts, vegetables etc.
Rosemary oil is good for hair growth to massage into the scalp. Also helps with improving memory.
