Amla and coconut oil applied to the scalp helps the hair to grow healthy and silky. You can get it from spice shops or any Indian store.

My mother was always fond of using beer and mayonnaise. Not together, of course, but it worked for her. (10/13/2009)

That can be a little heavy for certain types of hair. I bet it smells great though. I use olive oil on occasion on my fine hair. It works really well. Just leave on over night, cover with shower cap, and wash out the next morning. I usually lather twice.
If you do this once a month and especially if you use Head and Shoulders, it will also prevent dandruff. My dermatologist had me do this once when I was taking meds that made my skin and scalp really dry. It works. Mama would use beer to set her hair with. The odor goes away and it works like a setting gel. (10/15/2009)
