Cracking up at the hair phobics.
I heard someone say they were scared of really long hair but I thought they were trippin'. Now I see it's a real phobia.
Your cousin's hair is beautiful. Indian women have beautiful hair. I will be checking out that oil. I also love their clothing.

At night, they make a braid and they hang it over the bed.

I'm worried about my hair touching cotton sheets and the backs of chairs and sofas. If it were that long I would have to have satin carpet!

That is amazing that they have so much hair. Power to them. Indian women do have beautiful hair, but I'm going to keep it real here: I'm not Indian. I'm black and have dry type 4 hair, so I am not going to compare myself to them or aspire to have hair that long. I am working with what God blessed me with and I know that it would be extremely difficult for me to grow my hair that long, if I would even want to do that (which I do not). I also think that genetics and dietscome into play and I have dry, type 4 hair and I am eating a mostly American diet. I found a website that mentioned a number of foods, including some spices like turmeric I believe, that were good for the hair.
Also a number of books that I have read mention that Asian women are able to grow their hair very long because they have coarse (i.e. strong hair), also, many of them do not process their hair. My hair is type 4 and it is relaxed. The Darbur Amla oil's main ingredient is mineral oil and it STINKS. I am very sensitive to foul smells and it stank so bad that I got a headache and had to lie down for a few hours!
I am happy if it works for some but I think that I will stick to my good old fashioned coconut oil. Or maybe I will but amla powder and make a paste that someone mentioned in one of the posts. I could not keep that pil in my hair and wear it to work, I am sorry, but I really couldn't. People would look at me funny. My mom looks at me sideways when I have a lot of tea tree oil in my hair.
My experience with amla oil has been a really helpful one of me on this hair journey, because it has helped me to realize that I not only want long, strong, bsl hair (anything much longer than that would be too much for me and, I am sorry, I also agree that the Rip Van Winkle look would creep many people out) but I want SWEET smelling hair.

Re: Check out my Cousins\' Hair!!!
LOL...NOPE...you can't fully trust any online companies...but I might be ordering from them soon! I'm still searching for places that sell Amla in my area first. There's a lot of Indian people n my area(I'm wanna ask one of them), but no Indian stores. Well...actually there's one. I'll try it before I order.

Re: Check out my Cousins\' Hair!!!
I found two stores in my area. I called and asked one store if they carry it and they do. But I'm not going to get it yet and still not sure if I'm ever going to get it. After hearing about the awful smell of Amla oil, I would have to go to the store and smell it to see how it smells. If it doesn't bother me, I'll wait until I use up the oils I have and buy it.
