She also uses eggs and a banana as a hair pack.

She washes the pack off with lukewarm water.

Her special oil contains almond, sandalwood and several essential oils.

Actor discussing her regular hair-care routine

“My secret hair oil recipe is a concoction of almond and sandalwood oil as a base, with geranium, rosemary and lavender essential oils. This is the legacy I'll pass down to my grandchildren - oil your hair and do not colour it!”

“A couple of years ago, I was travelling with my children and grandchildren. I'd doused my hair with onion juice - you could smell me miles away - it's so strong. The scent stayed, even after I'd shampooed my hair 4 times.”
