Today we'll show you how to grow super long hair! Whether your hair barely grows or grows at a normal rate, this hair growth technique can work wonders on even the thinnest and most damaged hair! It's completely natural, free of chemicals, and takes just minutes to make! In fact, you probably already have most of the ingredients in your pantry!
Growing Super Long Hair
You'll Need:
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp honey
- one egg
Directions:
- In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients, making sure to beat the egg well before.
- Apply entire mixture to hair, starting from roots to ends.
- Massage mask into hair gently in slow circular motions. This will get the blood flowing and encourage faster hair growth.
- Leave mask on for as long as you like, but the longer the better! Leave the mask on for at least 30 minutes.
- We left ours on overnight and rinse it and washed it off in the morning.
Why This Hair Mask Works
Coconut Oil encourages hair growth by moisturizing the scalp as well as the ends. Coconutoil also contains omega-3 fatty acids which penetrate the hair shaft and feed the hair directly, volumizing each strand.
Olive Oil also gives a burst of moisturize and hydration, especially for dry and damaged hair.
Honey cleanses and removes any dirt, and is also anti-fungal.
Eggs contain proteins which are necessary for hair growth. The proteins in the egg penetrate the hair shaft, strengthening each strand.

How many times a week do you wash your hair with egg and and the other stuff you put it together to put on your hair and does your hair need to be dry or wet ….
Hi Lois,
I would recommend you do this once or twice a week for best results. The masks should be applied to dry hair 🙂
Do you need to put something over your hair when you leave it in overnight?
Yes, you should absolutely cover your hair with a thin towel or a shower cap so that it doesn’t stain your pillowcase!
Can i use shampoo while washing it?
Hi there! Yes, you have to use shampoo to rinse it out. Thanks for pointing that out, we forgot to write that in 🙂
I know everyone is different so I would never hold you to this answer. But do you have an estimate on how long it take to show growth.
Hi Jackie!
Personally, for me, I noticed growth after about a month (applying it 2-3 times a week). I have had people tell me that they’ve noticed a difference after only two weeks as well, so it all depends on how fast or slow your hair usually grows. Mine is very slow growing, so it took a little longer. The one thing I cannot stress enough with this, is that consistency is key. Apply it as often as you can and for as long as you can, and you should definitely start to see results!
We have to use the whole egg I mean the white nd yellow both the part of the egg
Hi Shweta,
Yes, for this recipe you’ll need to use the entire egg – egg white and egg yolk 🙂

Hi Noel,
Yes of course! It works on any type of hair, regardless of whether it is colored, permed, straightened, etc… 🙂
My hair is thin what can I use to get thicker hair and will the aforementioned recipe work?
Hi there,
Yes, the recipe works great, so long as you keep being consistent with it! That means applying it several times a week, and keeping up with it for a couple of months until you start to see results.
