In our day-to-day busy
life, we try and minimize every extra effort that we can to save some extra
time for ourselves. That is why when it comes to using oil for your hair, we
tend to keep it aside since it involves a little extra effort of putting oil
massaging, washing it off. This definitely ignores all the amazing benefits of
using hair oil that we can otherwise have.
Benefits of hair
oil
Natural hair conditioner: When it comes to hair conditioning, there
is nothing better than some natural oil to condition, instead of any
chemical-based synthetic hair conditioner. As it is natural, it does not
contain any chemical which can react with your scalp or damage the outer layer
of your hair.
Instant hair shining: Applying
a few drops of natural hair oil
on your palm, rubbing it against each other and spreading it throughout the
hair provides instant hair shining. It also keeps the moisture locked inside
the hair so the hair stays softer and hydrated.
Hair strengthening: Natural hair oil has a lot of vitamins,
minerals, fatty acids, and proteins, which helps to regain the hair strength
and make it stronger to prevent unnecessary breakage.
Stimulate the hair follicles: Applying natural hair oil on a regular
basis helps to stimulate the growth of hair follicles. These hair oils pack
vitamin, protein and all the other goodness which is like food for the hair
follicles. Hence, applying it on the scalp and massaging stimulate the blood
circulation on the scalp and helps to provide oxygen and other nutrients.
Reduce hair fall: Due to all the above-mentioned benefits,
our hair becomes healthy and stronger, so the chances of hair loss also get
lower significantly. As hair oil has hydrating and moisturizing
properties, applying it root-to-tips also ensures that you don't get any split
ends, especially for longer hair, due to dryness.
Different types of hair oil
Broadly, we can categorize
natural hair oil into two segments. The first one is carrier oils, like
Olive oil, Avocado oil, Almond oil, Argan oil, Coconut oil, etc. The second
type of oil is essential oils, like Lavender oil, Rosemary oil, Tea tree oil,
Lemongrass oil, Sandalwood oil, etc.
Choosing the perfect hair oil
Since we have so many
options floating in the market nowadays, it is very likely to get confused when
it comes to choosing the right hair oil.
Mixing and matching of a
small adequate amount of essential oil with the carrier oil provide the best
results for hair growth, besides preventing damage and repairing the damaged
hair.
Say, if you want to fight
with regular hair problems, the combination of Almond and Argan oil is one of
the best. It has Omega 3 fatty acid, Vitamin E and other nutrients which help
to grow strong hair strands, hence fighting hair fall and dryness.
In the same way, to fight
with scalp infection and dandruff, a combination of Coconut oil and Lemongrass
or Tea tree oil is extremely beneficial.
So when it comes
to choosing your own hair oil, you need to keep few important things
in mind. You need to consider that if you are facing any problem or issues
related to hair and scalp or it is just the basic hair nourishment that you're
looking for. Depending on your goal, you can choose the right kind of hair oil.
Last
but not least, do remember not to use hair oil without washing and drying your
hair and scalp to get the best results out of the hair oil treatment.
