Apart from traditional cosmetics, natural ways should not be neglected for hair beauty, here you can read how castor oil helps hair and scalp.
 
Although we may struggle to remove it from our hair, it is worth the effort as this product is a great source of vital nutrients such as vitamin E, proteins, minerals. All the hair needs.
 
1. Hair loss
The reasons for its appearance are of a very different nature - infection, dandruff, improper maintenance. Castor oil can help with this problem. The procedure is not complicated: take some of the oil and rub it into your roots and scalp. After standing like this for an hour or two, wash it off.
 
The ricin acid contained in it protects the hair and stimulates blood circulation.
 
2. Helps hair growth
If the oil is used regularly on the scalp, the stimulated blood circulation nourishes the hair follicles and the result is faster growing hair. This beneficial process is also due to the essential omega 6 fatty acids that castor oil "delivers" to the hair.
 
For this purpose, it is appropriate to apply the oil in the evening before going to bed, wrap your hair with a towel and sleep like that. In the morning, the product is washed off.
 
3. Scalp infections

These can lead to itching, bald spots, etc. Infections can even stop hair growth. Castor oil can help in these unpleasant situations as it also has antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties. It kills the pathogens and microorganisms causing these problems. It should be applied to the scalp regularly.
 
4. Split ends
Another condition that betrays the poor health of the hair. Thanks to its valuable ingredients, castor oil "smoothes out" this problem. It nourishes the hair from the very root, then strengthens the hair all the way to the tip.
 
Apply the oil all over your hair and wash it off after a few hours. Since it is sticky, you can mix it with jojoba oil for example for easier application.
 
5. Hair hydration
The natural omega 9 fatty acids that make up castor oil have the ability to "lock" moisture in the hair itself and in the scalp. For this purpose, the oil should be applied to the hair at least fifteen minutes before the shampoo. This will make the hair smooth and soft. Additionally, castor oil can also be added to hair conditioner.
 
Another practice that will contribute to the hydration of the hair is to drip one or two drops of the oil when doing your daily hair care.
 
6. Dry scalp
Dry scalp also leads to dandruff. But with the help of castor oil, we can get rid of both. The effect is due to the already mentioned omega 9 fatty acids, which nourish the hair and scalp.
 
Before washing your hair, apply the oil to the affected area and leave it for a few minutes. The difference will be noticeable after a few applications.
 
7. Against hair thinning
Another sign of damaged hair, which can also lead to hair loss. Castor oil can also thicken and strengthen the hair, which is due to omega 6 and 9 fatty acids. They help to improve the overall condition of the hair.
