What are the Benefits of Moringa Oil for Hair?
Moisturizes the scalp
Unlike other oils used in hair care, moringa oil has the ability to deliver moisture directly to the scalp. This nourishes your strands directly from the source. Because of this, you can apply moringa oil to wet or damp hair and scalp and it will still deliver the same hydration results.
Helps with hair loss
Moringa oil increases blood circulation to the scalp, boosting hair growth. As your circulation increases, so do your hair follicles' absorption of nutrients, for stronger, healthier hair.
Thickens hair
The zinc in moringa oil promotes keratin production. Your strands are 80% keratin. More keratin means more strand reinforcement, giving the appearance of thicker hair. If you’re interested in hiding thinning hair, moringa oil can help.
Helps with dandruff and improves scalp health
Moringa oil’s antimicrobial and detoxifying properties make it ideal for ridding the scalp of dandruff. Just massaging the oil into your wet scalp and rinsing can lift away dirt, dandruff and product residue for a healthy and clean scalp.
Improves split ends
Moringa oil is packed with amino acids that infuse the hair shafts with nutrients, smoothing frizz and promoting shine. These amino acids nourish weak, brittle strands and help to smooth and repair split ends.
Softens hair
Moringa oil is rich in fatty acids that work to improve hair texture and shine. And the protein make-up of moringa oil provides protection from environmental aggressors like UV rays, humidity and air pollution that can otherwise dry out your hair.
Helps maintain color
The vitamins C and E in moringa oil can protect your hair color from fading whether you have color-treated-hair or not. The oil creates a protective film on your hair, helping to preserve the vibrancy of your color.
