Have you tried using aloe vera and coconut oil for hair?
I have been using this hair mask since childhood.
Actually, when I was little, my grandma used to apply fresh aloe vera gel on my scalp and then she used to apply warm coconut oil on my hair and do a nice scalp massage.
I used to hate that at the time. But now I am so thankful to her and my mom for taking such good care of my hair.
Anyways, she inspired this aloe vera and coconut oil hair mask recipe. And my laziness became the fuel.

This mask works wonders for your hair and its growth. You have dry hair, damaged hair, dandruff, hair fall or any other hair problem, you just name it and this hair mask has amazing powers to solve it and help you achieve your hair goals.

That's because it has coconut oil which becomes hard when you refrigerate. Just heat it using indirect heat method before using
