Did you know the Ancient Egyptians used Castor Oil and Almond Oil to moisturize their hair? Recently, clinical studies have begun to confirm the long-held belief that essential oils address a range of hair and scalp issues, including itchy scalp, hairline acne, dry hair, and more.
Here are 8 Pro Rich Oils found in our DHT-blocking Pro Rich Shampoo & Conditioner (... and the Hair + Scalp Issues They Fix!)
1) Castor Oil - Dry, Itchy Scalp
One of the world’s oldest herbal remedies, Castor Oil is great for dry, itchy scalp. Packed with fatty acids and omegas, Castor Oil protects the shaft of the hair while oxygenating follicles to promote new hair growth.
Its antioxidant properties hydrate and soothe dry, itchy scalp while protecting sensitive skin from collagen damage caused by free radicals, helping prevent wrinkles and encourage healthy hair growth long-term.
2) Jojoba Oil - Weak Hair
If your hair is losing strength and density, use Jojoba Oil. Rich in Vitamin B, copper, zinc, Jojoba Oil nourishes and strengthens hair, helping prevent hair loss and promote hair thickness.
Full of proteins and fatty acids, Jojoba Oil stimulates circulation in the scalp, bringing blood and nutrients to the hair follicles to keep hair looking young, healthy, and strong.
3) Coconut Oil - Split Ends and Hair Breakage
Want a break from your hair breakage? The lauric acid in Coconut Oil moisturizes and heals frizzy, broken hair while its vitamin and fatty acid content helps nourish the scalp and cuticles.
Coconut Oil boasts natural proteins that penetrate the hair shaft, reducing the amount of water hair absorbs and limiting protein loss for stronger, softer, more lustrous hair as you age.
4) Tea Tree Oil - Hairline Acne
The powerful antibacterial, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties in Tea Tree Oil make it a great solution for hairline acne.
A natural cleanser, Tea Tree Oil prevents chemical and dead skin buildup on the scalp, helping fight dandruff, infections, and acne while promoting new hair growth and keeping hair healthy long-term.
5) Argan Oil - Loss of Hair Moisture
If you experience loss of hair moisture due to styling products, Argan Oil can help replenish your hair and even promote new hair growth.
Packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidant compounds called phenols, Argan Oil strengthens hair follicles and promotes cell production in the scalp while promoting new hair growth and making hair thicker and softer.
6) Peppermint Oil - Hair Loss
The menthol in Peppermint Oil is a vasodilator, expanding the blood vessels to improve blood flow to the scalp and follicles and encourage new hair growth.
Rich in pulegone and mentone, it also strengthens the roots of the hair and its menthol content makes it a useful remedy against head lice.
7) Rosemary Oil - Premature Aging
Starting to see some stray grays? Rosemary Oil helps prevent premature graying, dandruff, and itchy scalp, while working to promote new hair growth.
The carnosic acid in Rosemary Oil helps to heal tissue and nerve damage in the scalp and promote new hair growth, and has even been known to regrow hair in patients with alopecia.
8) Lavender Oil - Scalp Bacterial Infections
Recent studies have shown that Lavender Oil can kill bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other sources of scalp infections.
Lavender oil disrupts the bacterial membrane, killing target bacteria while moisturizing hair and protecting from environmental damage.
