DIY Hair Growth Shampoo Recipe
Boost hair growth naturally with our DIY hair growth shampoo recipe. Strengthen, nourish, and promote healthy, shiny hair using simple, natural ingredients.
Why This Recipe Works
This recipe blends physical exfoliants with a whipped, airy oil base. Sea salt provides deep exfoliation for rough patches, while brown sugar adds soft humectant moisture. Whipping coconut and jojoba oils creates a velvety texture that glides onto the skin without feeling heavy, while lavender and refreshing lemon essential oils uplift your senses and soothe irritation.
Ingredients
Phase A (Exfoliants & Botanicals)
60g Sea Salt
20g Lavender Blossoms
10g Brown Sugar
Instructions
Phase A (Melting & Whipping)
In a double boiler, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, stir in the jojoba oil until thoroughly combined.
Remove from heat and place the mixture in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
Take the mixture out and whip using a hand mixer on medium speed for 5-7 minutes until smooth and fluffy.
Let the whipped oil rest for 5 minutes, then add the vitamin E, lavender oil, and lemon oil. Blend on low speed for 2 minutes to incorporate.
Phase B (Incorporating & Packaging)
In a separate bowl, thoroughly combine the sea salt, brown sugar, and dried lavender blossoms.
Gently fold the salt, sugar, and lavender mixture into the whipped oil base a little at a time until fully mixed.
Ensure the abrasives are evenly distributed, then transfer into a clean, wide-mouth glass jar. Enjoy your luxurious homemade body scrub!
