The Benefits of Sunflower Oil on Hair

Sunflower Oil 

Sunflowers, native to America, has been widely used for the extraction of cooking oil since ages. Sunflower oil is non-volatile oil extracted from the seeds of sunflowers. It is commonly used as cooking oil as well as in cosmetic formulations due to its emollient properties.
Its nutritious composition makes it one of the healthiest oils for consumption as well as application on skin and hair. The main component of sunflower oil is linoleic acid. Its other components include oleic acid and palmitic acid. In addition to these, it contains lecithin, carotenoids, tocopherols and appreciable quantities of vitamins A, D and E

Effects on the Hair 

Sunflower oil has a moisturizing effect on your hair. A wide array of nutrients and antioxidants together with essential fatty acids make it extremely beneficial for your hair. Following are the benefits of sunflower oil for hair.
  • Due to its light texture and mild flavor  sunflower oil softens the hair and adds a delightful sheen to it. Sunflower seed oil helps to control frizz, tackles dryness and damage and makes you hair manageable. This versatile oil maintains your hair’s luster and texture and can be used as a natural conditioner. Sunflower oil can be applied and massaged on your scalp before a shampoo for maximum benefits.
  •  Being extremely light, sunflower oil helps in conditioning the hair. It nourishes the hair and prevents breakage.
  •  Sunflower oil is an important source of gamma alpha linolenic acid (GLA) which helps in preventing thinning of hair. It is effective in the treatment of hair-loss, baldness and alopecia areata characterized by round patches of lost hair(www.stylecraze.com)

How to Use

Sunflower oil can also be applied directly to the scalp and massaged throughout your hair as a conditioner. Or it can be placed in your water bottle and/or used as the OIL in the LOC Method. 

To Treat Dry Hair 


Wet hair in the shower. Apply a quarter-size amount of sunflower oil to your scalp (more or less as needed). Massage it into the scalp. Comb the oil through to the ends of your hair. Wrap hair in a hot wet towel for up to an hour. If you don't have that much time, I recommend wrapping hair in Saran Wrap for 20 minutes, or sit under the dryer for 15 mins. Shampoo hair thoroughly.

The Benefits of Soybean Oil.....

Soybean Oil

Soybean oil is extracted from the soybean. It often has a dark yellow or faint green color. Soybean oil is made by extracting oils from the soybean. This is done by cracking the beans and then heating the beans to remove any unnecessary moisture. Next, the beans are sliced and then rolled to extract the oil. (www.fitday.com)   






Soybean oil is a common ingredient in salad dressings, margarine and shortening. It also has numerous uses for hair and beauty purposes. It is commonly used as a carrier oil in aromatherapy treatments for hair, which means it is used as a base oil to which different essential oils are added. It can also be used to promote hair growth and add strength and shine to your hair. (www.livestrong.com)


Benefits of Soybean Oil on Hair


Moisture


Moisture is one of the major benefits that soybean oil provides. Dry hair thirsts for moisture and oils penetrate deep into the hair cuticle. This can be used as a deep conditioning treatment once or twice each week, or in weekly hot oil treatments. Your hair will be hydrated and more manageable. The omega three fats and other oils in this food lubricate the hair. Soybean oil is a natural hair conditioner that can add moisture and body while helping to promote hair growth.  
Soybean oil is not as greasy as other oils.  


Nutritious


Soybean oil is also very nourishing because it contains vitamins and other nutrients. The lipids in the soybean help the nutrients to penetrate deep. Hair thrives off of nutrition, and feeding it with soybean oil can improve softness. Your hair will be much easier to tame and manage when it is soft and hydrated. Dry hair breaks off and can become a frizzy mess. Frizz tends to act up when hair is dry. Keeping hair nourished and moisturized is key. 


Strengthening 

The properties within the soybeans do more than just help hair maintain moisture. As you use soybean oil, over time you will also notice that this healthy oil strengthens your locks. Soybeans are dense and loaded with protein.   
Hair is made of protein, and additional proteins consumed in your diet and put on your hair helps to add strength and durability. Of course, you will only get results with consistency, so be sure to use this oil on your hair often and eat a healthy diet. Organic soybean oil is best because it does not contain any pesticides or other chemicals.
