With crazy work weeks, gym class and nights on the town, ?good hair days? are hard to come by and can be few and far between! Most of us are unaware of how the wind and dust from daily weather conditions can take a toll on our hair health, leaving it dry and frizzy; combined with hair care practices that we think are helpful to our hair, such as washing it daily, this can actually lead to stripping the hair and scalp of natural coats of oil, which can lead to dryness, damage, and breakage.

Luckily, there are numerous essential oils that offer restorative and reparative benefits to your hair, be it thick or thin, frizzy or flat, and can pamper your scalp while healing! Essential oils for hair care can fight dandruff, combat premature greyness, and stimulate the hair follicles to promote growth and general health. Knowing both your hair type and the unique challenges that your own hair faces will go a long way in selecting the essential oil that is right for your purposes, and will leave you with long and strong locks that grow at the speed of light!

Hair Health Essential Oil Guide

Lavender

Lavender essential oil works on all hair types to promote growth, strength, and overall hair health. It is mild and soothing, so it can be used on the toughest to the most sensitive scalps around. This type of oil offers maximum benefits to people with ?mixed? scalps; meaning, those who are prone to oily scalps near the front and the back but experience dryness in other areas. The antibiotic properties of lavender oil also combat acne near the scalp and protect the scalp from flaky dandruff. To use lavender oil to its fullest extent, it is best mixed in with approximately 2 tbsp or extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil, and then massaged into the scalp. Leave it overnight and wash in the morning to reap the benefits of its restorative powers!

Rosemary

Rosemary oil works best for those who are wanting to combat sneaky grey streaks or hair that seems to be thinning. The antioxidants found in this essential oil are known to increase blood circulation in the scalp for hair health from the root. This oil is best suited for people who experience extra oily hair, as it tones down the action of the glands in the scalp that produce excess oils and promotes non-greasiness in the hair throughout.

It is also known to clear up clogged pores that cause acne near the line of the scalp. Hot oil treatments work best with rosemary oil; combine 3 tbsp of olive oil to 10 drops of heated rosemary oil and apply to your scalp. Cover your hair with a towel that has been dipped in hot water, and wash off with shampoo after approximately 30 minutes. This treatment lifts the oil and debris that clogs the pores and combats greasiness while also promoting strength and thickness in hair growth.

Roman Chamomile

Roman Chamomile oil is commonly used for hair care due to its strong anti-inflammatory properties. It is used to relieve itchiness or flakiness in the scalp that often occurs from psoriasis, dandruff, or dermatitis. Chamomile oil is a natural deep conditioner that also protects hair from the damage that is caused by exposure to daily environmental elements.

Blondes prefer this oil, as it is a natural hair lightener and leaves the hair with a healthy golden sheen that rounds out the richness of color for those with blonde hair. A few drop of chamomile oil can be applied and massaged directly into the scalp, providing a non-greasy coating that protects and does not even need to be washed out (unless you would prefer to do so). If you do choose to rinse later, the chamomile oil should be added to a quart of water and used as a final rinse after washing out the protective coat.

No matter the length, type, or thickness of your hair, the healing properties of essential oils will work wonders on scalps and tresses of all kinds! Knowing the challenges faced by your hair, as well as the specific benefits of the available oils, will surely help to improve growth, health, and satisfaction, leaving you smiling and your hair shining!
