The Benefits of Grape Seed Oil on Natural Hair


Grape Seed Oil:

Did you know that Grape seed oil offers a number of simple solutions for healthy, beautiful radiant hair?   It is full of antioxidants which protect your hair from various free radicals. This light oil is excellent for fine or thin hair. Heating grape seed oil and applying it to the scalp and hair gives hair sheen, reduces brittleness, strengthen hair strands, and protects against split ends.

As it smooths the hair cuticles, dry, rough and frizzy hair can also benefit from the use of grape seed oil, because it seals in moisture. Other problems such as dandruff can be reduced by regularly applying grape seed oil on the scalp. But the best thing about applying grape seed oil on your hair is that it can be safely applied on all hair types, whether normal, dry or oily. It can be used as a hot oil treatment, heat protectant  or to seal in your favorite moisturizer.  It can also be applied to your skin as well.  www.kindredcurls.com
What is it??
Grape Seed Oil This super light and moisturizing hair oil can benefit all types of curls. A natural heat protectant, grape seed oil can actually be used as a thermal agent up to 425 degrees when blow drying or flat ironing. Apply a bit throughout the hair before applying heat to give your hair added shine and protection. This oil works great to strengthen each strand, increase manageability and can also be used to combat dry scalp and dandruff. Shelf life: approximately 1 year. www.curlynikki.com 

Other Benefits!

There are a multitude of benefits from using grape seed oil for hair, because it is quickly absorbed by the scalp and moisturizes the hair follicles from the roots down. Several people recommend using grape seed oil for hair treatments, such as hot oil conditioning. The oil may also be very effective in treating split ends, breakage, and brittle or damaged hair. topics.wisegeek.com

Curly Nikki and Wheat Germ Oil --NOW AVAILABLE


Though wheat germ oil is great for salads because of it’s nutty taste, it’s also excellent for hair because it is a ceramide oil. Ceramide oils work by creating a sort of protective barrier around the hair shaft which in turn holds in moisture and protein all while also protecting the hair from heat damage and UV rays (so it works as a sunscreen for your hair) and in doing so, helps to “repair” or prevent further damage to the cuticle layers of your hair.
You can use wheat germ oil a few times a week to keep your hair soft and supple.   
-- Kurlybella of K is for Kinky

What is Wheat Germ Oil- Wheat germ oil is an unrefined oil that is obtained from the germ of the wheat kernel. It is the richest source of Vitamin E than any other vegetable oil. It also has a high content of vitamin A and vitamin D. It is rich in protein and lecithin. It is very popular for external application due to its beneficial effects on the skin.
Obtained from the embryo or kernel of the wheat grain, wheat germ oil is a light yellow, fat soluble natural oil. As it is an unrefined oil, it has a thick consistency and a strong aroma. Although the germ of the wheat forms only 3% of the weight of the wheat grain, the wheat germ benefits stem from the fact that it contains almost 25% of the total proteins, vitamins and minerals of the wheat grain. It is a very sensitive oil that tends to degrade if not stored with care. It should be kept away from high temperatures as if exposed to extreme temperatures, it may turn rancid. However, if kept properly, the shelf life of wheat germ oil can be extend up to a few months. It is used to make delicious salad dressings and is also added to freshly cooked pasta. source and www.curlynikki.com

THE BENEFITS OF AVOCADO OIL ON NATURAL HAIR.....


Avocado oil is good for moisturizing dry, brittle, and damaged hair. It has a light weight formula that’s easily absorbed into the hair and scalp. It contains many nutrients such as vitamins A, B, D, E, protein, amino acids, iron, copper, magnesium, and folic acid. All these nutrients are beneficial for nourishment and hair growth.
It has natural humectant properties adding and locking in moisture. It acts as a natural SPF. It’s also great for deep conditioning, strengthening hair, and adding shine. The vitamins, amino acids, and high fat content promote healthy cell growth and are great for maintaining and restoring scalp health (dry, itchy scalp).
Avocado oil can be added to shampoo, used as a deep treatment, or used as a sealant.

Hair Growth Nutrients

The monounsaturated fatty acid content in avocado oil is even higher than extra virgin olive oil and is one of the main reasons it is so good for your hair. Many people’s hair is dry, damaged and weak from poor nutrition, heat styling, chemical treatments and environmental pollution. Monounsaturated fats, when applied directly in a hair mask, can moisturize, nourish and strengthen hair strands, improving the way they look and protecting them from damage.

Avocado oil for hair growth

Massaging avocado oil into your scalp also stimulates blood flow to your hair follicles. With improved blood flow and circulation to the scalp, more nutrients can reach the follicles to stimulate new growth and healthier hair in general.
Finally, and perhaps most beneficially for hair care, its monounsaturated fatty acids, phytosterols and high levels of antioxidants like vitamin E, are well absorbed into our scalp and hair shafts. This not only has a highly moisturizing and protective effect against environmental stressors and damage, it may also stimulate new growth and help unclog blocked follicles.
The combination of antioxidant vitamin E, moisturizing plants sterols and the rich levels of monounsaturated fatty acids in avocado oil, provides three nutrients that have been individually recommended for stimulating hair growth, in one simple, highly absorbable topical treatment.
While there are no clinical trials I’m aware of (and are unlikely to be since pharmaceutical companies can’t patent natural treatments), many people report positive results with using avocado oil for hair growth.

Three Ways to Use Avocado Oil for Better Hair

Applying a good cold pressed avocado oil to your hair will improve its appearance and texture while strengthening and moisturizing the strands. See the page on treatments for some simple homemade ideas that are likely to be far more effective than your expensive store bought conditioners.
Massaging avocado oil into your scalp stimulates circulation and allows it to penetrate in deeply, providing beneficial nutrients, unclogging blocked follicles and, it is reported for many people, stimulating new growth. (http://superfoodprofiles.com/truth-avocado-oil-hair-growth)

What IS Neem Oil?????

Neem Oil..What is it????    Neem oil is a naturally occurring pesticide found in seeds from the neem tree. It is yellow to brown, has a bitter taste, and a garlic/sulfur smell. It has been used for hundreds of years to control pests and diseases. Components of neem oil can be found in many products today. These include toothpaste, cosmetics, soaps, and pet shampoos. Neem oil is a mixture of components. Azadirachtin is the most active component for repelling and killing pests and can be extracted from neem oil. The portion left over is called clarified hydrophobic neem oil. 


Effects
Neem oil is very effective in treating dry hair or itchy scalp; it is commonly used to treat dandruff and psoriasis. Hair applied regularly with Neem oil becomes shiny and silky as well as more manageable.
Neem oil is impactful on preventing hair loss or thinning as well as premature graying of hair. Lice sufferers can get rid of the shame and humiliation of their hair condition with a good massage of their hair and head with Neem oil. There is the presence of Azadirachtin element that acts to kill off the hair lice without hurting the hair.

Plant components
Neem leaves are used to extract the desired oil to manage long hair. Neem leaves are also applied directly onto the hair to allow the oils to seep into the hair follicles and cuticles. This is one of the ancient and traditional ways of many cultures in treating hair.
Today, Neem leaves are processed into a paste to be used as a conditioner to smooth out the roughness and tangles in the hair. Hence, the dryness and flakes are removed from the hair. The leaves also contain the required nourishment that is needed by the hair strands to soothe any irritation that comes from dry scalp condition.

Benefits
The Neem plant has a lot of benefits; these include antiseptic and anti inflammatory properties that prevent the presence of bacterial, viral, fungal and parasites on the hair and head. There is no side effect with the use of Neem oil on the hair.
Instead, research confirms a purification of the blood through the use of this Indian plant for beauty and health purposes.
