Best Hair Oil: Everyone wants thick and shiny hair. But due to today’s changing lifestyle, pollution and lack of nutrition, thinning hair has become a common problem. For this problem, ‘Castor Oil’, which has been used since ancient times in Ayurveda, is a very effective home remedy. Here is complete information about how castor oil improves hair health and how to use it properly.
Castor oil is rich in omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids. The ‘ricinoleic acid’ present in it increases blood circulation in the scalp. Due to this, more oxygen and nutrients reach the hair roots, which helps in growing new hair. Its antibacterial and antifungal properties prevent scalp infections, thereby reducing hair fall. To prevent hair thinning, castor oil is a little thick, so it can be a little difficult to apply it directly.
Ways to use
Apply castor oil by mixing it with coconut oil or olive oil in equal quantity. This makes the oil thinner and reaches the hair roots easily. Warm the oil a little and massage the scalp in circular motions with light hands. This increases blood circulation. After applying the oil, wear a shower cap and leave it for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour. Due to this the oil goes deep into the hair. Later wash hair with mild shampoo.
By doing this at least twice a week, hair will start becoming thick. Castor oil gives natural moisture to the hair. This reduces the split ends of the hair and makes the hair soft and shiny.
Panacea for dandruff and dry scalp
It is also a panacea for the problem of dandruff and dry scalp in winter. Vitamin E and protein present in castor oil strengthen the hair roots and help in increasing the natural keratin level. It works as a natural conditioner to maintain the shine of hair for a long time. Not only the hair on the head, if eyebrows or eyelashes are also less then applying castor oil every night before sleeping makes them thick and beautiful.
With regular use, dryness of the scalp is completely removed and hair becomes strong. But keep in mind, external care alone is not enough to prevent hair thinning. Good sleep, drinking enough water and eating nutritious food are equally important.
