4 AMAZING HAIRCARE INGREDIENTS EVERYONE SHOULD TRY

We know, we know, sis… the warm weather is almost here so we need to get our hair game in check! This is why we have put together 4 inexpensive and super-easy-to-find products that will enhance the health of your hair, guaranteed! And you know we don’t play about our clean beauty standards, meaning these are all simple natural and organic ingredients free from any chemical additives. Let’s get into it! 

Water 

Water is a key ingredient that supports vitamins, which contribute to your hair growth. Believe it or not, water makes up almost 25% of the weight of a single strand of hair. Drinking at least two liters of water a day will help the strength of your hair, increasing growth. Essentially, drinking enough water allows every system in the body to function properly and since we are made up of about 60% water, it’s best to be generous in your drinking. From skin to the scalp, water offers us an easy and natural way to up our beauty game, especially when it comes to growing hair, and keeping the scalp healthy.

Drinking enough water helps energize and support hair growth from root to tip. It also helps prevent split ends and a brittle hair texture, as well as fosters a healthier scalp meaning you'll have fewer chances of developing problems like dryness, itchiness, or dandruff. Just as water hydrates and replenishes the skin, it does the same for the scalp and in turn, your lovely locks.

We naturally lose fluids throughout the day. On average, for active women and men, this can result in up to 1-2 liters of water or more, especially after intense physical activity. Ultimately, replenishing ourselves with water is a vital and inexpensive healthy habit we can all get on board with!

Aloe Vera

This multi-faceted Aloe vera has many active ingredients and minerals that can help strengthen your hair. It has fatty acids and amino acids and is rich in vitamins A, B12, C, and E. These play a part in healthy hair follicles.

  • Controls greasy hair. Aloe vera has enzymes that break down fats and so strips your hair of any extra oil (sebum).

  • Helps an itchy scalp. Seborrheic dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin condition that affects your scalp. It causes dandruff, red skin, and scaly patches. Researchers have found that aloe vera can significantly decrease scaliness and itchiness. 

  • Protection from UV damage. A study found that fresh aloe vera juice offers protection from ultraviolet (UV) radiation that comes from the sun. UV exposure can cause your hair to lose its shine and color, and make it rough and less elastic, leading to breakage. The amount of protection from UV light depends on the type of hair.

  • Hair growth. Some people say aloe vera helps with hair growth, but there’s no scientific proof. However, researchers believe that aloenin, a chemical compound in the plant, is a primary factor in promoting hair growth, as found in people with alopecia. It has been used to improve hair health and lessen breakage, which contributes to hair growth

Jamaican Black Castor Oil

Castor oil is a natural humectant (retains or preserves moisture) often used in cosmetics — added to products like lotions, makeup, and cleansers — to promote hydration. Jamaican Black Castor Oil works for all hair types. It will moisturize, thicken, strengthen and rapidly increase hair growth. It increases blood flow to the scalp, supplying valuable nutrients to hair follicles. Jamaican Black Castor Oil will also prevent hair breakage, dandruff, eczema, and dry, itchy scalp. Jamaican Black Castor Oil has crossed over into other ethnic groups and is now being used widely for some of the same purposes, as well as newfound uses including eyelash and eyebrow hair growth and as a massage oil. This versatile oil carries many varied uses.

Peppermint Oil

With a fresh aroma, this strongly concentrated oil must be diluted before applying the scalp. It penetrates the scalp and stimulates the hair follicle, allowing for more oxygen production that gives your curls the green light to grow. The benefits of peppermint essential oil can be described as:

  • antimicrobial

  • insecticidal and pesticidal

  • analgesic and anesthetic

  • vasodilating (and vasoconstricting)

  • anti-inflammatory

Some people have used the oil as a remedy for hair loss. This may be because the menthol in peppermint essential oil is a vasodilator, and vasodilators improve blood flow. In many instances (such as in female or male pattern baldness), hair loss occurs due to starved blood flow to hair follicles. Increasing circulation with a vasodilator like a peppermint could potentially improve hair growth and prevent some hair loss.
