A hair or skin treatment composition for improving health of hair or skin includes an ointment obtained by heating one or more of castor oil, animal fat, and vegetable oil with a mash comprising one or more of carrots, onions, coconut flesh, and watercress, for between one and eight hours to generate, after straining to remove solids, a preliminary oil mixture. The preliminary oil mixture is heated with one or more of citrus juice and nutmeg, for between one and eight hours, to generate, after straining to remove solids, an intermediate oil mixture. The intermediate oil mixture is heated with sulfur, petrolatum, and at least one agent configured for absorbing or blocking ultraviolet radiation to generate, upon cooling, the ointment, which can be applied to hair or skin of a user to effect a physical or aesthetic change thereto. |
