History Doctor - How is it used to keep hair black and shiny?
Gooseberries, also known as amla, is a natural way to thicken your hair and naturally make it darker. The smell , depending on the individual , can be somewhat bothersome because it is very fragrant. It is best to leave in your hair and sleep with it on , but it does stain so wear something old. As for your pillow , place an old towel on it! Best of luck! This item is a real gem!!!
