Homemade Amla Oil

[CynamonKis]

Has anyone ever tried making this by boiling amla powder in coconut oil? I need to re-cycle my amla powder since I don't now want to use it in my henna.....

I remember reading a post on nappturality about mixing amla and tea tree oil into coconut oil and using it on the scalp
The poster said that she got good growth from it
The amla and coconut alone also sounds like a good mix

I actually did this - I used alma, henna, and shikaika powders, mixed with coconut oil - in a crockpot. I let it simmer for about 8 hours, strained the oil out, and used it.

I mainly use it in Deep treatments, and add it to my henna, and on OCCASION use it for a scalp treatment, as my hair gets crunchy when I use this oil. I might just be using too much. *sigh*

Scorpian thanks for the tip--I can certainly use tea tree oil; Nappywoman I nnever considered a crock pot but it is truly a good idea...

As long as you have cheese cloth or a fine sieve, it should be pretty simple.
