I lost two-thirds of my hair – a Middle Eastern secret grew back three times as much, you can make it yourself at home
A WOMAN who lost two-thirds of her hair has it all back again thanks to a Middle Eastern secret.
After using this remedy, her locks grew back threefold — and she’s generously shared the trick.
There are no drugstore visits for this hair hack.
Instead, she picks up the essentials from the market and makes it herself at home.
If anyone doubted Ariane Mann’s (@arianemann) tip, then a glance at the comments to her post will see many people backing it up.
“I’m Egyptian and you’re right. My grandmother used to do this all her life and she had the best hair in the world,” said one person.
Ariane has a fantastic head of hair today, but it wasn’t always so.
“Going to share with you a Middle Eastern secret on how I got my hair to grow thicker, longer, and fuller after I lost two-thirds of it,” she said.
“This is what I use and the best part is you could do it yourself at home.”
The content of this hair treatment was unusual.
“Bone marrow has very powerful amino acids that nourish the scalp,” she said.
It worked for her and she hasn’t looked back.
“My hair grew back three times more than what I had, it was crazy. So I am proof that this works,” she wrote.
She saw a transformation over two years, applying it once a week.
“You can get cow bone marrow at any market,” she said.
“Marrow contains a powerhouse of fatty acids and multivitamins that nourish and stimulate the hair, promoting hair growth,” she added.
DIY hair remedy
Ingredients:
- Bone marrow
Method:
- Put the bone marrow in the oven for five minutes to get it soft.
- Remove marrow from the bone.
- Steam the marrow for one minute to get the oil out.
- Strain all the remaining meat and collect the oil.
- Store in fridge.
- Use after shower by massaging into scalp with fingers.
- Leave in for between 30 minutes and four hours.
- Use a blow dryer for about five to 10 minutes. The heat helps it penetrate.

She applies hers after a shower, rubbing it in with her fingers, leaving it in for between 30 minutes and four hours.
“The massage is the most important part. Keep doing it month after month and you’re going to see a huge difference in your hair,” she said.
There were hundreds of comments to her post and many could vouch for this unusual hair hack.
“We’re from Egypt and my mother used to do that treatment once a week and she had the prettiest hair in the family,” said one person.
“My Egyptian mother did this and her hair was luscious until 90,” wrote a second.
“This is an ancient recipe in Sudan too. We call it Wadak. We mix it with cloves, sesame oil, and beeswax for a buttery texture,” said a third person.
