3 Benefits of Using Hair Oils

Ask a couple of your friends or even strangers the secret to their vibrant hair and most will point you towards hair oils. Old and young alike swear by hair oil and continue to point to the regenerative properties of different kinds of hair oil.

Consider that your scalp produces oils naturally in its bid to keep your hair moisturized; this is proof yet, that hair oil is very healthy for you. Coconut oil, sesame oil, olive oil, castor oil, and others are some of the natural oil products you can use for your hair. The question everyone asks is what do you really gain when you use hair oils?

      1. It strengthens the hair

Two certified professionals share their opinions on the ability of hair oils to improve hair strength. Dr. Khushboo Garodia, a certified trichologist states “Oil helps in scalp health. When you gently massage the scalp it helps in exfoliation and reduces hair fall.” This claim is supported by Dr. Rohini Wadhwani of Skin Essentials who believes that hair oil helps increase the tensile strength of the hair.”

      2. Stimulation of Hair Growth

Massaging your scalp with oil stimulates the circulation of blood and allows for better blood flow to the area. With improved blood flow, your scalp gains more nutrients which in turn promotes better hair growth.

      3. Hydration

Natural oils are rich in lipids like fatty acids and Vitamin E all of which help to maintain the hair gloss by preventing moisture loss. When you apply oil to your hair, it prevents dryness and ensures richness and a shine that can last for the whole day. 

All you have to do is pour a healthy amount onto your hair then massage it into your scalp to gain some extra luster and moisture
