Witch Hazel is an astringent and curbs oil levels. It is also a great cleansing aid and anti-microbial. It curbs inflammation and itching and reduces dandruff. Hair loss? It helps with that too. Is your hair or scalp greasy? This is just what you need. Now you know why we’re using this – not only does it curb oil levels, it is also good for your hair and scalp.
Citrus oils are known for their mood-uplifting and energizing properties. So, this is just what you need to spruce up. Also, it smells fresh? What’s not to like about it? While I have chosen Sweet Orange here, you could go for any citrus oil really.
Eucalyptus Oil is known for its health benefits especially related to cold and flu. Do you know it is an antiseptic too? It is also very good for hair and scalp, especially if you are suffering from reduced hair growth or scalp issues like dandruff. Eucalyptus stimulates the scalp and improves hair growth, besides curbing dandruff and itching.
Myrrh is known more its mystic aroma, but do you know it is also a very good calming and soothing oil? During these traumatic times we could all do with some peace and quiet and this oil can calm the mind. It promote healing, is anti-inflammatory and good for hair and scalp. Besides, it smells lovely!
