Final Attempt To Get Long Hair

After my disastrous attempt to grow my hair with apple cider vinegar, and the disgusting attempt with potatoes, I was really hoping that the "third times a charm" saying would apply to my final attempt to grow my hair faster.

Use Onion Water for That Fab Long Hair
You might not think that onions can be used for anything except cooking, but that’s definitely not the case. Boil some onions in water and use the water on your hair — no lie! It’ll make it grow super fast and it’ll give it an awesome sheen that everyone will be jealous of! 

Of course I was not surprised at how vague the instructions are.  Why am I still going to this website?!?!? How much of the onion water should I put on?  How long do I leave it in my hair? Do I put it on wet or dry hair? These are questions that should be addressed when telling someone to pour left over produce water in their hair.


So I did the best I could with the little information I had. I chopped up an onion and boiled it in about 3 cups of water for about 10 minutes.


 Once the water had cooled off, I poured it into a container.  I had a lot of onion water and I was really hoping it would last a while.  I didn't want to boil an onion every time I washed my hair. 

For the next month I used the onion water every time I washed my hair.  I would shampoo and condition like I always do then I would squirt the onion water onto my hair and massage it into my scalp.  I left it on for a few minutes then rinsed it out with warm water.

The Verdict: The first thing i noticed was how soft my hair was. I am a hair twirler by nature and having my hair abnormally soft did not help that habit.  It was really hard to keep my finger away from my hair.   I never did notice a "sheen" to my hair like the website promised but I guess Charlie and Martin were busy. Ba dum bum.

I left the container of onion water in my shower and it lasted anywhere from 7-10 days.  It just depended on how much water I used to boil the onion in and how much I put on my hair.  I kept thinking it might start to mold sitting in my shower, but it never did.  The smell would get a little stronger the longer it sat in the bottle but the smell never stuck to my hair and of course that was a huge relief. I really didn't want to walk around smelling like a pizza place.

But did it work? You betcha!!!!!
Shocked?  So was I. 

Every month, for the last 4 months, I have measured the same three areas on my head.  And every month my hair has grown 3/4 inch.  At the end of the month using onion water my hair had grown 1 inch.  1/4 of an inch isn't a lot of growth, but it's something.

Unfortunately for my hair it's not over,  I have more fun and exciting things to test on my hair.

  1. This is... this is shocking! I'm flabbergasted! And your hair stayed softer? This is just nuts! What kind of onions did you use (in case it matters)?

    1. I am still shocked. I actually want to do it again in a few months to see if it was just a coincidence. My hair was softer the entire month I did it. Once I stopped using the onions I noticed a difference with the texture of my hair. I used regular white onions.

  4. Did you notice whether or not you had new growth, or your hair was thicker? My hair is quite fine, and sometimes softer is not always better...although I WILL still be trying this.

    1. I did have new growth, not a lot but some. My hair actually felt thinner while I was using this. I think because it was softer it wasn't as prone to frizz. It didn't last though. About 2 washes after I stopped using the onion water my hair felt like it always did. So you could try it and if it makes your hair to fine then it shouldn't be permanent.

  5. Another thing to try is boiling rosemary! Rosemary is really good for multiple things.

  6. I'm confused; did your hair grow 1/4" each month and a total of 1 inch over the 4 months, or did it grow 1" per month? Sorry, but the way I'm reading it, I wasn't sure! :)

    1. or your could try tea tree oil for your hairline... just add a few drops of tea tree oil to your castor oil ( as it must be used with a carrier oil) and use your fingertips to apply all along the hairline... my hairline is back... I am however going to try the onion water for growth all over

    2. Someone above mentioned boiling rosemary in water. I have very thin hair and was losing it at the temples. Have been rubbing 5 drops of rosemary oil with mint in the area and the fuzz is coming back in. The rosemary oil also has a wonderful relaxing smell. Yu can also use plain rosemary oil or use it in a carrier oil like castor (greasy) or almond (better).

Since carbon fiber composites are well-suited to lightweight materials that require strength and stiffness, they are widely used in the sporting goods and automotive industries. Chopped carbon fibers are placed in a compression mold and infused with resin to create forged carbon fiber (also known as Forged Composites) products. Carbon fiber can be woven into more complicated shapes using this method, but it is normally not as powerful as woven continuous strand carbon fiber. The finished product has a striking look that resembles marbled carbon fiber. Are you in search of forged carbon fiber components? So connect with us and get all at once.
