Not your Mothers Olive Oil
6 Ingredients Your Hair May be Missing
Amla | Dandruff Buster
Featuring a number of essential fatty acids, amla oil is
thought to strengthen the hair follicles and condition the hair. Proponents
also claim that amla oil can help treat dry, itchy scalp. Besides
essential fatty acids, amla fruit are high in vitamin C, flavonoids,
polyphenols, and also contain water, protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and
minerals. Amla oil is typically massaged into
the strands so that it completely covers hair (from the roots to the tips). It
can be covered with a shower cap. After sitting for 15 minutes or more, the
amla oil is then thoroughly rinsed from the hair with warm water. Applying amla
oil to the scalp can help with dandruff or soothe a dry, itchy scalp. The oil
is massaged into the scalp daily and rinsed out after 15 minutes, or it can be
left on the scalp overnight before being washed out.
Broccoli Seed | Silicone Replacement
Is unique among the vegetable oils. Broccoli Seed Oil
contains a fatty acid profile that gives it excellent absorption properties
while offering significant film forming properties on the skin, as well as on
the hair, resulting in a natural glow on the skin and luster on the hair.
The excellent anti-oxidant profile makes it an easy substitute for silicones where the film forming activity
results in a natural shine, and cuticle smoothing of the hair. Unrefined, it has
a strong natural odor and a dark color. It is best used in high dilution.
Acai Oil | World’s Most Interesting Berry
Acai is naturally rich in Omega fats
(the good kind), amino acids, electrolytes, protein, vitamins A, B1 and E.
One more amazing use for this berry!
Argan Oil | Deep Conditioning
Ninja
The oil contains 80% unsaturated fatty
acids, is rich in essential fatty
acids and is more resistant to oxidation than olive oil. Argan oil has proven to be efficient
in the treatment of several scalp conditions; such as seborrhea, dandruff,
psoriasis, dermatitis, itchy scalp, and oily scalp. I personally Love a Deep conditioner
that lists Argan Oil as one of its main ingredients. My hair hasn’t stopped
thanking me.
Black Cumin Seed |
Edge Regrowth
Nigella sativa, also known as black cumin
is known to treat thinning of hair, baldness and excessive shedding. Nigella sativa has more than 100 nutrients
and vitamins to replenish the skin and hair and can help you to have that hair
you want. Like any remedy, not all
remedies are effective on every person.
Pequi | Frizz Buster
Pequi Oil Treatment revives even the
driest, most brittle hair that's been color-treated or damaged. It also tames
frizz, mends split ends with a natural UV filter, and keeps color vibrant. It
contains moisture-restoring antioxidants, Vitamins A and E, proteins and lipids
that help make every hair type noticeably softer, shinier, and smoother like
never before.
I encourage
you to try different oils, and be sure to listen to your hair. What works for
some may not work for others. If you are noticing adverse side effects, be sure
to note the changes, and adjust your regimen accordingly. Some curly girls keep
hair journals to track their progress, and results.
