Strain the Oil: After the oil has cooled down, strain out the garlic pieces using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. This will leave you with the infused oil.
Add Essential Oil (Optional): If you want a better fragrance or extra hair benefits, you can add a few drops of your favorite essential oil, like lavender or rosemary.
Store the Oil: Transfer the infused garlic oil to a clean bottle or jar. Store it in a cool, dark place.
How to Use Garlic Oil:
Pre-Application: Patch Test – Before applying garlic oil to your scalp, always do a patch test to ensure you don’t have any allergic reactions or irritation. Apply a small amount of the oil to a small area of your skin (such as the inside of your wrist) and wait for about 24 hours to check for any redness or itching.
Gently massage the garlic oil into your scalp, focusing on areas where you want to improve hair growth or address scalp concerns.
Leave the Oil on for at least 30 minutes, or even overnight for deeper penetration.
