WHY WE LOVE CASTOR OIL FOR HAIR CARE

It’s no secret that we are always on the hunt for ingredients that will help you nurture and revitalize your locks, inside out. But in our book, some ingredients, like castor oil, stand the test of time the test of time because they are so rich in nutrients.  

Let’s walk through what castor oil is, how it can support healthy hair and how you can implement this mighty elixir into your routine. 

What is Castor Oil? 

Castor oil is a natural oil extracted from the seeds of the castor plant. It can be rich in Vitamin E, a natural antioxidant, and moisturizing lipids. 

Is Castor Oil Good for Your Hair?  

Strength 

Castor oil is a hero when it comes to fortifying hair strands. The fatty acids penetrate deep into your hair shaft, nourishing and strengthening it over time. It helps reduce breakage, leaving your hair less prone to damage from heat tools, humidity and more. 

Moisture 

Dry, parched hair loves castor oil. This natural emollient locks in moisture, preventing hair from becoming brittle. It naturally promotes a silky, hydrated texture, leaving you saying goodbye to frizz for good.  

How to Use Castor Oil for Hair: 

There are many ways to incorporate this hair-loving substance into your routine. One option is combing through a pea-sized amount (or more, depending on your hair length) of castor oil directly into your strands after you shampoo and condition. Though, it can be incredibly thick and heavy on its own, which is why adding in products infused with it can provide the benefits you’re looking for without the heaviness.  

Here are some of our favorites:
