Since the ancient times, Indians have been obsessed with their thick, long, and naturally black hair. Although the ever-changing hair styling trends in the Indian beauty industry make us experiment with our hair color every now and then, we still can never get enough of our dark lustrous hair. But no matter how much we try to maintain the natural dark hue of our locks, it can fade away over time and sometimes even lead to premature graying. If you are also experiencing the same, simply rely on oil and your hair will turn darker again. Let’s identify the best oils to darken your hair naturally.
* Castor OilMassage castor oil into your scalp and leave it overnight. Use a shower cap while sleeping and wash it off the following morning. Do this 2-3 times a week. Use for a couple of months to get darker and healthier hair.
* Amla Oil
Simply chop up a few fresh amlas and add them to a cup of coconut oil. Let it sit for a couple of days and then, strain the mixture. Use it as a conditioner after shampooing your hair and massage lightly into your damp hair. Let it remain on the hair for about fifteen minutes. Then, rinse with lukewarm water. Repeated usage of this oil is said to help hair growth, retard greying, and make the hair darker.
* Brahmi OilHeat up a cup of coconut oil. Add 2 teaspoons of Brahmi powder and 1 teaspoon of methi or fenugreek seeds to it. Allow the entire concoction to boil until the methi seeds pop. Sieve this mixture and use the oil regularly before washing your hair. Over time, you will notice the darkening of your hair and a remarkable reduction in grey hair.
* Curry Leaf OilRoughly chop up some curry leaves and dry them in the sun. Soak these dried leaves in some coconut oil for a couple of days and let the extract get incorporated into the oil thoroughly. Strain and use it in place of your regular hair oil. Within a few months of use, you can see a noticeable change in both volume and pigmentation of your hair.
