Millet for a real fast growth
Hi ladies, I am a pretty long time reader, and not so long time member.
I decided that I have to share my personal recipe for hair growth, one that I have forgotten, but now I've seem to revive the interest in it.
For as long as I can remember, I have had really thick and volomnous hair. Colour was never interesting, so about ten years ago I started with henna. My colleague wanted almost black effect, so she said I should put it for whole night. I did it, repetedly, for eight years, and since I used the only henna I could find (which, I suppose, was not as good as the used by other members here) it was damaging my hair. How could I be so dumb? I had perfect hair up to my ears, and from ears onwards they were absolutely horrid. Being stupid and (not so) young, I decided to throw bleach over it, and start again (???) and my hair was destroyed.
Now, a year and something later, I have managed to recuperate about 20 cm of my old hair, but I have a really nice growth of my virgin new hair.
Now to the point of the thread: before the bleaching accident, I was taking an old indian recipe for hair growth: curd and fenugreek. My hair was really nice, thick and it was growing fast, but the store in which I was buying fenugreek went bancrupted, and I ceased to take that. Than the bleaching came, destroyed my hair. My new hair was gentle, smooth (otherwise it is really thick) and, sadly, really thin. I went to see my grandma and she said that I must start to eat millet in the morning: the recipe is the same as for fenugreek: some say, that it must be cooked, I think it is best to just put it in water until next day, then mix with some yoghurt or/and honey. I like it. And my hair........omg. My hair is really thick again (maybe even more), it has luster...and I have so many "new babies", that under powerful light it seems that I have a mohawk
So, this is my story. I hope it will help someone on this board.

Re: Millet for a real fast growth
That's very interesting. Is there anyway you could post a picture of the millet or make a link to the millet you are using. The reason is: there are at least 3 types of millets! Thanks for posting - very helpful!

I sometimes eat millet instead of rice. It's really tasty.

Re: Millet for a real fast growth
Can some one explain Millet a little better for me? I read a little bit about it and it sounds like a healthier then having rice...
Any links or anything explaining more about it and where i can be bought?

Millet porridge is also good. I mix it with buckwheat and rice.

That's interesting. I've seen millet in the bulk section of the health food store I go to. Maybe I'll buy some and start eating it more breakfast. I love cooked or soaked whole grains mixed with yogurt for breakfast.

Re: Millet for a real fast growth
Heres some info on wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millet
I think my mom makes flat bread out this flour. I am just a bit confused between "jowar" and "bajri" I will have to ask my mom.
" Millets are major food sources in arid and semi-arid regions of the world, and feature in the traditional cuisine of many others. In Western India, Sorghum (called "Jowar" in Gujarati and Marathi) has been commonly used with millet flour called "Bajari" in Western India) flour for hundreds of years to make the local staple flat bread (called "Rotla" in Gujarati or "Bhakri" in Marathi).'
