When it comes to boosting hair growth, there is no shortage of treatments, topical solutions, oral supplements, and many others on the market. Among this ever growing category of products, a new sub-category has started to develop more popularity. Natural herbs have a number of beneficial properties for hair growth, and can now be found in a multitude of formulas from oils to daily pills. Using herbs for your hair has many benefits, but not all herbs are created equal, meaning, not all of the effects they’ll have on your hair are equal. With that said, find some of our favorite herbal oils that will work wonders for your hair growth journey below.
Hathor Organics, Rosemary Oil
There’s no questioning that Rosemary oil has a multitude of benefits for your hair and skin. When used on your scalp and hair, the anti-inflammatory properties of the oil will not only alleviate itching and flaking, but those same properties are what makes it beneficial for hair growth as it works to keep the follicle healthy. Apply a few drops of oil and massage it directly to your scalp and allow it to sit for five to 10 minutes before immediately shampooing. You’ll be sure to see results in just four weeks if you maintain a consistent routine.
