Listen I was just as skeptical as you are now when I read that statement on several other blogs and influencer spaces. That title is by no means click bait because I really want you to try this treatment and let me know if it works for you.
According to YouTubers who have tried the recipe, their hair grew an inch overnight and as I watched the videos even with them showing their overnight success results my skepticism was still on level 100.
If you follow Maryam Hampton on YouTube you know that her hair is absolutely gorgeous and she herself decided she would try the treatment to see if it actually works.
Here is the recipe:
2 Eggs
4 Tablespoons of grapeseed oil*
Plastic wrap – LEAVE ON FOR An HOUR
Coconut oil* – RINSE OUT NEXT DAY
Watch Maryam do the process here:
Now according to Maryam, her hair actually grew overnight which you will hear her say in the video and honestly as I watched I could not deny that what she was saying was true.
Here is the thing, coconut* oil and eggs are great all natural protein treatments, the oil can penetrate the hair stand taking with it anything that is in the mix.
The protein can smooth your cuticles reduce damage in and outside of the strand. My theory is the smoothing technique stretches the hair a bit which might be what appears to be growth.
I am no doctor but hair growth starts from the scalp driven by the internal processes that happen within your body. I also know that there are oils* including coconut oil* that when applied to the scalp can aid in hair growth by keeping the scalp healthy and the hair follicles in tip top shape.
As far as the recipe goes, I think you should try it if you are up for the challenge. Do remember though that this is a protein treatment so ensure that you are moisturizing your hair well to balance the effects of it.
