HAIR DETANGLING SPRAY:
Benefits of ingredients used in the Hair Detangling Spray:
COMMERCIAL ALOE GEL:
Aloe gel has more than 70 potentially active components including vitamins, enzymes, minerals. It has Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Vitamin E. Aloe gel also has folic acid. All these components are essential to maintain a healthy hair growth. Store bought aloe gel is no less than the original aloe plant gel. So, do not worry about using commercial aloe gel. It gets absorbed easily in the hair and helps with detangling of hair and also provides lustre to the hair.
JOJOBA OIL:
Jojoba oil is obtained from cold-pressing the jojoba seed from jojoba shrub. It promotes hair growth and deeply moisturises the scalp. Has Vitamin E and Vitamin B. Vitamin E softens the hair and nourishes the scalp. Vitamin B complex plays a vital role in producing red blood cells that increases oxygen supply on the scalp. This helps in the regeneration on new hair. Using jojoba oil for hair also greatly reduces dandruff. This also protects your hair from split ends and damage and greatly delays the process of premature greying of hair.
GRAPESEED OIL:
Healthy hair growth is achieved only by taking proper food and by using products that stimulates hair growth. Grapeseed oil is sold in the market for its effectiveness in promoting hair growth. This also eliminates dandruff, if used regularly. It helps in the overall improvement of your scalp and conditions your hair naturally. This greatly nourishes your hair and gives your hair a natural shine and smoothness. People with dry hair, scalp issues, hair fall issues should definitely use grapeseed oil in their hair care routine.
