My hair is thick, shiny & smells like heaven & it’s due to a £1.20 three-ingredient soak I whack on whilst watching TV
A WOMAN has claimed that her hair grows super thick, shiny and smooth, thanks to her three-ingredient soak.
Beauty fan Ella explained that she mixes three ingredients together - two of which you may already have in your cupboard - and leaves her DIY oil to soak on her hair for a few hours.
After washing her locks, the brunette beauty claimed that her hair is left ‘smelling like heaven’, thanks to her £1.20 hack.
Sharing her haircare advice on social media, Ella asked her followers: “Do you want thick and shiny hair?”
She then explained how to create her DIY solution, as she continued: “Do you want thick and healthy hair that is also extremely shiny and soft?
“If yes, then you are in the right place and this recipe is exactly for you.

“It will not only make your hair soft and shiny, but it will also make it smell like heaven.
“All you have to do is put two to three tablespoons of coconut oil, along with a tablespoon of honey and dried rose petals.
“If you can’t find rose petals, then rose water will do just fine.
“Let it sit for a day or two and then it’s good for application.”
Once the solution has marinated, she added it to her locks, as she added: “Use a droplet or a bottle to distribute the oil evenly on your scalp and on your hair.
“Don’t just focus on the front of your head.
“Once you’re done, put it in a loose bun or ponytail and then leave it for a few hours.”
This hack is something you can do whilst chilling out or watching TV of an evening, as Ella then advised: “Once the oils are applied, you can either put on a shower cap to create a bit of warmth, or you can go ahead and massage your scalp with whatever tool, or your fingers. It will help with blood circulation.
“Then simply wash your hair as normal.
“I know rose water is not very popular but it will make your hair so soft and it will make it smell like summer.”
The beauty lover then proudly showed off her hair once it had been washed - which not only looked thick and soft but incredibly healthy too.
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ellasharmony, has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly amassed 182,500 views.
Social media users were left open-mouthed at Ella’s hair and her handy trick - as many took to the comments to express this.
One person said: “Your hair is gorgeous.”
Another added: “Finally a video showing how to get thick hair from someone who actually has thick hair.”
A third commented: “Yes please.”
Meanwhile, someone else asked: “How often should we do this?”
In response, Ella answered: “I do hair oiling once or twice a week.”
Whilst another questioned: “Can I do it on the same day when I oil my scalp with rosemary oil?”
To this, Ella explained: “I normally do it on another day. This is why I say that I do hair oiling once or twice a week. One with rosemary oil and one with something else.”
If you fancy making this three-ingredient oil, it will cost you just £1.20 per soak.
You can nab a 50ml tub of coconut oil for Holland & Barrett, but you'll only need to just 30ml, which works out at 90p.
When it comes to honey, you can buy it for as little as 75p for a 340g pot from Morrisons, and you'll only need to use a tablespoon, which works out as less than a penny a time.
