Amla fruit is enriched with a high dose of Vitamin C, minerals, and antioxidants, it is one of the best ayurvedic medicines to treat health problems and hair problems all at once. 

Well, making Amla oil is not a big hassle, you can always buy it as well if you do not want to go ahead with a lot of procedures but if you are interested in doing it on your project then making Amla oil is the right way to begin.

HOW TO MAKE AMLA OIL AT HOME?

Making Amla oil is not rocket science, let us tell you how you can make your own Amla oil at home. You need about 5-10 amla fruit. You can increase the quantity or reduce it by your own requirement. You can either dry the amla fruit for a few days in the sun or take out fresh juice by grating the fruit and then squeezing out the juice with the help of a muslin cloth. 

A lot of brands have come up with their own Amla oil. If you think making the oil at home is going to be a hassle for you then you can always go ahead and buy the oil from the market. However, make sure that you read the ingredients list before buying, it is always important to know what all is going in your products. 

After squeezing out the amla juice you can add this juice to carrier oils like coconut, olive, or sesame oil. Make sure these are also 100% original and not artificial oils. If the carrier oil is not of good quality then our amla oil will also not turn out to be as effective as we want it to be. 

If you are using dry amla then you can use a blender to make it into a thick or semi-thick consistency before you add your carrier oils into it. Mix the oils well and leave the mixture to set in overnight. 

This will help the oils to infuse and work together, you can warm up a bit of this mix and apply it on your scalp, gently massage the oil into your scalp and leave it on for 1 hour or more. Rinse it off with a natural shampoo.
