Castor oil is essential in omega-9 fatty acids and works well with hot oil treatments as well as deep scalp massages. It’s one of the great natural hair moisturizers and sealers.
The most common use of this natural resource for hair is the applying of it on ends of the hair repeated twice a week or as individually needed. It’s thick so if necessary mix with another oil like grape seed or sunflower oil. Remember to refrain from using too much as it will weigh down your thirsty roots and can irritate the scalp at times.
The best brands on the market are…
Apricot Castor Oil (Smells Wonderful) or Jamaican Black.
love castor oil, I have been using it for about 2 1/2 months and it has definitely thickened my roots.
