If you want to make a larger batch of egg oil, consider doubling the number of eggs in the recipe.
If you take the eggs out after just 6-7 minutes, you might end up with soft-boiled eggs instead.
If the water is cool enough, you can remove the eggs from the pot by hand.
Feel free to compost your egg shells once you’re done with them.
Don’t worry if the hardened yolk peels or chips as you’re removing it—that’s perfectly normal given how soft the yolk is.
Since the yolks are already cooked, it isn’t a big deal if you heat the griddle before placing the egg yolks on it.
You might have to use a spoon to scrape any excess egg off the edge of your spatula as you go.
If you see any excessive smoke, it probably means that a specific patch of egg yolks is burning. Avoid this by flipping the eggs over consistently. Be sure to turn down the heat whenever this happens.
Continue straining the mixture until the oil looks clear. [15] X Research source
While you want to coat your scalp and hair with a thin layer of egg oil, you don’t want to apply a thick layer of product to either of them.
Feel free to use more product as necessary depending on your hair length and density.
If you rinse the oil out too early, then it might not have the desired effects. Wrap a towel around your hair if you’re leaving the oil in overnight.
Be sure to use shampoo to remove the egg oil from your hair instead of rinsing it out with just water! For this treatment to be most effective, use egg oil in your hair about twice a week.
