aloe vera, if used on your face can make it hairier though. i replaced it with cucumber gel and it's great and refreshing on the face.

i've used aloe vera for a year and i've never had this problem? actually it's the opposite, if i put it near my eyebrows they get thinner

i'd recommend trying konjac sponges to cleanse your face, i think brushes are too harsh for the skin
and zinc cream helps with acne scars and dark spots

Have you used aloe vera gel to the face? How's the outcome? I've heard that eyebrows and eyelashes grow faster with that, but idk if it's true. What is it good for and what do you use it for? @Empulla

yeah i use it basically everywhere and i've noticed that my lashes have grown a bit and they don't shed as much anymore. and my face in general looks better now and my acne has dissappeared little bit, not much but it's doing something! (and my face hasn't gotten any hairier otherwise btw)

I've used it for 2 days (3rd today) and I can already notice something with my eyebrows and eyelashes. But it depends on the person! My eyebrows grow pretty fast underneath the actual brow, and I'm now trying to fill in my eyebrows. And ohhh the eyelashes are darker naturally and idk how to explain it, they are so much better in frickin 2-3 days. I can't wait to see if something happens with the length in 1-2 months. So idk! I will try to use some in my hair on monday, and then every second time I wash my hair. I recommend it! It's not that expensive, nd my friend bought it 1h to try it out too. I recommend it to everyone, but have to say that it depends on the person. buy it, im in love

Paint them! I used to bite them like all the time before, but then I felt like I wanted to start saving up. I failed a lot of times, but by taking care of my nails I feel like it's a waste to bite them. Now they are longer, (a little bit) and I'm trying to get them to grow.

Oh, okay. I don't want my eyebrows to get thinner doe hahah
But this seems to be something to use together with castor oil on the eyelashes to get them longer. Aloe vera seems to have a lot of good things in it. You can eat it too right? I mean put it in smoothies and so on?

I've heard some really positive stuff about it before, but that sounds awesome. My hair is also really dry and brittle from bleaching, so anything that could spark a hint of life in there i could use haha. I'll buy it on monday for sure!!

The fact that they kept ripping must be that they were weak? Try putting some kind of oil on them before going to sleep. I've heard vaseline strengthen nails, and I've started using it. To use nail polish also makes it stronger for the moment, so while using vaseline - have nail polish on. They feel steady and strong. But firstly, what I do before putting any lack on my nails - sit with your hands in warm water with oil in. It could be oil for the body, or just oil that you use when cooking. After that you should start off with an underlayer of nail polish and then the main colour, end it with a top layer. I use top-polish for under-polish too lol
Shape the nails before painting and starting to grow them, it makes them come up the way you want them to.
Other than this idk, eat and drink well. Lots of milk, and anything with calcium in it.

Oh oki! I would love to hear how it turned out! Ask the person in the pharmacy for castor oil and they should have it. You're not supposed to use a lot of it in your hair, just enough to smudge on your scalp (skin of ur head lol). <33

I've already did a search online and it turns out my favorite drug store has it, so i'm gonna go there after my seminar monday. Yeah, guess it won't solve all my hair issues, but i've lost a lot of hair anyway due to me destroying my hair basically, so something to help the growth would be great. I've read something about coconut oil as well and since i happen to have that i'm gonna use that as a mask soon. Just have to put the oil on my radiator, cuz right now it's hard as a rock.

Oeh, also a great tip, if you don't have make-up remover you can basically use every oil (olive oil, coconut oil, baby oil). It works great for waterproof make up. Coconut oil is defo the best, because it has no smell or taste or anything, but you'd have to store it somewhere warm because otherwise it gets really hard.

It makes absolutely no sense to me that people wash their hair with shampoo that strips it of all its natural oils, only to apply artificial moisture and oil afterwards to patch up on the harm the shampoo did. I use regular soap bars (also better for the environment - less plastic) and vinegar as conditioner, and only once a week. You can do with even less, less frequent, if you "train" your hair to it.

@Maitri I wash my hair every 5 day, and it's so nice! The hair keeps the scent and I just wash it when I can notice that it's disgusting or anything. But I train my hair on breaks, perfect timing to be disgusting without anyone noticing or care.

I wash mine once a week, and it only gets slightly greasy on washing day. If I use any hair oil or styling products however, it really messes up the natural balance.
I had to use regular hair&body shower gel once because I was visiting family (and always forget to bring my own soap), and my hair looked like a haystack for days.

I know of people who only washes every second week. I think the main reason I wouldn't go so long, was if I forgot. Its easy to remember once a week.

ohh nicee, I think the castor oil will help you out. And omf yes, coconut oil is hella good. I have to buy it again doe. I swear, put banana in your mask. it feels so refreshing

and hahah yea, I use baby oil to my face when taking off my makeup. + I put it in my face mask lolol

I experimented a bit with hair growth once (completely unscientific). I measured my hair for a month without doing anything in particular, to see that my hair grows at a rate about ca. 1cm a month. Thats pretty normal.
I ate vitamins for a months, and that made no difference. Even the type of vitamins claimed to increase growth.
And then I tried scalp massage. I forgot it most days, but did it several times a day, a few times a week for a month. That month my hair grew 2cm!

I haven't tried castor oil, but I'm not sure how it would work though. I think it might be the same arguments as the vitamins. It probably doesn't make your hair grow faster, but it decreases the risk of breakage and damage, leaving the hair stronger and healthier. At least thats my theory.
But just applying stuff in the hair won't effect new growth, as hair is dead. Its what happens to the scalp or inside your body, that determines something like growth speed. Maybe the oil helps due to the scalp massage, I don't know. All I know is, the scalp massage works due to increased blood flow in the scalp. Exercise will have the same effect. Oil might make massaging easier, I don't know (but in that case, I figure any kind of oil for hair could work).

This is what I thought too! But I think it's something with the castor oil that makes something with the scalp. You have to massage the scalp with it, and then leave it for 20min. Something must happen under this time. Idk man
