As the local coffeeshop switches their drink menu from an iced summer palette over to the delicious fall flavors, one of our favorite beauty vloggers, Farah Dhukai, has incorporated a very autumnal ingredient into her beauty regimen. Dhukai shared that pumpkin makes your hair grow faster — and there is science to back it up! The savvy and creative Instagram star, who has gifted her Instagram followers with tips that include recipes for DIY contour face masks (this is totally a thing), how to use diaper rash cream on acne, and how to use Listerine as a dandruff-killer, has now shared a video detailing the fact that:

Pumpkin oil is not only good in lattes, it’s good as a hair-growth elixir!

In Dhukai’s video she explains that a cocktail of mostly pumpkin oil and a few drops of peppermint essential oils might be the trick for your hair woes! First, she mixes up the pumpkin oil with the dash of peppermint, lets it get warm (this is crucial), and then massages it in for several minutes, and voila: longer locks! If you’re feeling skeptical of the science behind this beauty, a study conducted by researchers from Republic of Korea’s Pusan National University showed that regular intake of pumpkin oil slowed down and in some cases reversed the effects of balding due to the presence of vitamin E, vitamin K, and omega 6 acids!

Naturally, Dhukai had a killer soundtrack for her tutorial.

Once it’s warm, massage your scalp with the mixture for 5 to 7 minutes!

Slight tingling is normal.

Save the rest of your concoction for later, and make it a weekly routine for results!

HOW TO GROW YOUR HAIR FAST!☄ Have you had a bad haircut or regret cutting your hair shorter? This method will grow 1-2 inches of hair PER week.. possibly more! depending on your body :)) Heres HOW! Make a Cocktail of: PUMPKIN OIL (you need more of this because this is your base oil) PEPPERMINT ESSENTIAL OIL (you need less of this because essential oil is extremely concentrated) Store leftovers for next time. Make sure it's warm before use. Massage onto your scalp only so your roots are saturated. It TINGLES. that's normal. Here is the MAGIC TIP!! flip your hair over so your kinda upside down and massage scalp for 5-7 min. This is called the inversion method - I'll explain why this is the path to hair growth success later ⏳flip ur head back to normal -you can leave this overnight or wash out. I flip my hair over while I wash my hair too. Inversion = life. ⏰Do this everyday for 1 week. You don't need to use oil, you can do this on clean hair too but the oil helps speed up the growth process. I grew about 3-4 inches in 2 weeks. Measurementsssss show ya. This is why my hair grows so fast! WHY THIS IS DA BIZZZNIZZZZZ: Pumpkin oil: found to REVERSE balding, Contains fatty acids and vitamins B and essential nutrients for hair growth. IF YOURE LOSING HAIR. U NEED DIS. Peppermint Essential oil: stimulate/Rejuvenates follicles for healthy hair growth. Prevents dandruff and keeps your scalp freshhhhh ⌛️Inversion: turning upside down boosts circulation- it gets blood flowing to the roots and puts them to werkkkk so your hair grows faster. #themoreyouknow inversion therapy isn't new. It works wonders and that's why I do dis often. This also stimulates your brain. Yay for brainssss 🤓 Give this vid a like and help a sis out fammmm and tag a friend who could use long hair and brainzzz PS. I'm not wearing extensions. Disclaimer: As with any skin care regimen, always do a test patch first to see if your skin is allergic to any of the ingredients. Everyone's skin is different, so result can vary from person to person. I can not vouch for any substitute ingredients.
