I can't imagine how to do it for not looking greasy. It looks always greasy when I do it.
Thank you. I just mix the oils together after warming them slightly and dip my fingers in the oil and just massage it into my scalp but i always CO out in the morning, as i have heard you shouldn't leave oils on your scalp as it can upset the ph balance of your scalp don't know if thats true though.
Even though i do these between 3-5 times a week i still only shampoo my hair once a week as my hair doesn't get greasy apparently CO is the best thing to get oils with.

I apply it at night and wash it out in the morning, because it would look super super greasy if I didn't do it! I find castor oil (even mixed with another oil) very heavy, and ordinarily I'd only very lightly oil my hair if I was wearing it during the day.
Also, I only put the castor oil on my scalp, but it does smear around my head so my head is a greasy mess! I cover my pillow each time I do it too ;)

I have kind of the same problem Mesmerise. But I wash in the evening, so I cannot leave it on for more than 2 hours.

Thats a shame that makes it more of a pain for you.

After reading this I too mixed some castor oil with sweet almond oil and applied to my scalp. Since I work at home and wear bandannas all the time I left it on for almost 4 days. The results- My hair was 31 inches and then I got the dead ends trimmed off on Feb 25, 2 inches total which put my hair to 29 inches. I measured on March 15 (Tuesday), the day I put the castor oil on and I was up to 29 1/2 inches. When I clarified on March 18 (Friday) my hair measured 30 inches! I am pretty excited.
I have been drinking Diatomaceous Earth (DE) since January 24 and on most days rubbing a little bit of sweet almond oil on my ends. Before I shampoo, I put coconut oil on the length and do a scalp massage with salt, almond oil and baking soda and I only shampoo once a week with Burt's Bees.
SO.....not sure what or if it is a combination but SOMETHING is working!

Wow that's pretty impressive! i put it on everyday.
Re: My castor oil experiment results after 4 weeks (pics)
This is encouraging.
I am going to start mixing my castor with a lighter oil as castor alone is a pain in the butt. :D I have some EVOO.
I think I will apply it every 2nd or 3rd day, at night, then wash out in the morning. I can't apply it every day as my hair WILL look super greasy.

I see incredible growth and your hair looks a lot thicker too....way to grow!

im going to try the caster oil /grapeseed oil mix until the bottle is gone then switch to either almond oil or coconut oils.
