Friend's mother made me some hair oil

Y'all gon make me read through this whole thread twice to find no progress...lucky I'm at the salon. Lmbo
 
Y'all are so serious about this oil :lol: I ain't mad though, I want some now :look:

But seriously though....If you really want to know what is in it, you can send it to an independent chemistry lab. You can find one in a phone book or you can solicit recommendations from a local university. You probably want to talk to some one who specializes in organic chemistry. There will probably be a fee. It will take a variety of tests and distillation methods to find exactly what is in there.

That's the thing- her friend doesn't know, she just uses it. In fact, people there don't know whats in it either, because the people who make it don't disclose the information about the ingredients. It just comes in a clear bottle (see previous post) The people who use it, the distributor's, the women who bring it from Sudan to Egypt, don't know. This is how the Sudanese women making this stuff, make their money. And come to think of it, I would feel very guilty stealing away their recipe.

I can understand that. Maybe you could try to see what avenues you can use to generate some revenue here by selling it.

Aww, I understand. But don't feel guilty. We would buy it from those ladies if we could. But we can't. So its not like we are cheating them out of something.
I searched online to see if it could be found on one of those "Fair Trade" type websites, but I found nothing.
 
I've been googling all sorts of stuff in an attempt to find out about this oil. This thread has led to me learn a lot about that part of Africa and its women. So, oil or no oil I am better off for having subscribed.
 
OKaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay....tell me...did the original poster disappear from this thread and just leave me to haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnng?.......


well....I'll be bokkkkkkkk!!!!!!......................
