I wanna know too! But I'll try to be patient. Eisani, when you get it and your hair grows 2 inches in a month, pm a sistah with those ingredients :lachen:. For serious, though :look:.

This is still on my mind and I'm cecking into other options as well. My female friend is supposed to be going to Sudan for a wedding in January (if she doesn't flake out) and I've already put her on it too. I also wanna know what they use before weddings when they put them in a hole in the ground and put something on their skin to make it so smooth, pretty and fragrant! Updates will be given when there's something to report ;)

I'm not too pressed about it, you know? I've found what works for me, but I'm so curious! I love learning new things, especially about hair care and home remedies, so this all up my alley. I just wanna see if it's something we already know or have access to on this site, or if it's something new :grin:.

LOL...Y'all got me intrigued about this skin regimen so I started to do some research. Found this much:

[...]For at least a month before the wedding, a Sudanese bride is locked up at home, scrubbed daily with concoctions of turmeric, coffee, crushed almonds, rice and sandalwood. She is then placed aloft over a pit of burning perfumed wood to give the skin a beautiful colour and scent.
All her body hair is removed and her hands and feet are painted in intricate designs of henna. When she emerges on the first day of the wedding, her skin is dazzling.[...]

You can get a glimpse of the entire wedding ritual at the link where I got that piece: http://propagandapress.org/2007/04/30/opheera-guyanese-sells-her-soul-in-sudans-wedding-of-the-year/

The hair, or the oil? My hair is alright, just trying to manipulate less and let it do its thing. The oil, hopefully, I'll be able to get some or at least find out the ingredients after my friend gets back from Sudan. If she's not on some BS...
 
Speaking of turmeric. Months ago I started making turmeric tea. I forgot what it was supposed to do and haven't used in a while but it's supposed to be good for your health. It tastes good though. I was also doing turmeric masks with yogurt trying to clear up my skin. I stopped doing that too. :perplexed

Hayle naw :nono:. While it wasn't my original intent, I'm thinking I may have another angle to work :sekret: I have an admirer out of the crew from the same area of Sudan and he has long hair :look:. I'm working my way up to asking...:giggle: As promised, I will update if there's anything to update. I have not forgotten. You know, since I've been reading about the origins of ayurveda and stuff thanks to a poster here, I'm still wondering if it's something that we already use, or at least very similar. I've GOT to find out!!

I bet it is something we already use here or it contains similar properties. And I am sure your hair is already beautiful, so screw those folks and their mystery oil...smile....

That's how I feel about it too, but I'm just so nosy and the PJ in me really wants to crack this case eventually. Inquiring minds wanna know!
 
I'm just noticing....It's all y'all long haired ladies that's saying forget about that oil. The rest of us need the extra help.LOL
