The first evidence of the use of sweet almond oil to promote hair growth comes from ancient Egypt. Almond oil was routinely mixed with castor oil to improve upon the castor's texture and smell. The mixture was then applied to the scalp through massage and left on for a specific amount of time. This mixture was said to grow hair faster and cure baldness.
