In order to grow really long hair you just have to… wait for it…never cut it.

They aren’t permitted to cut their hair ever again.

To try it yourself, let the rice water sit for at least a day at room temperature.  It won’t smell great because it will have turned sour.  Add essential oils to make your hair smell sweet.

Some people like Tea Tree Oil. This method has been tried by holistic western doctors, and they swear by it.

Will you try it?
