Jojoba oil proves to be good in the development of hair and keeps your hair healthy in a way you would be pleased. Jojoba oil is extracted from the jojoba plant. Jojoba is found in dry desert regions like Arizona and the oil is used in various skin and hair care products. Here are a few benefits of applying jojoba oil.
1. Strengthens hair follicles
Jojoba oil is a great source of Vitamin E and Vitamin B. This assists the hair follicles to grow stronger and healthier. The Vitamins present in Jojoba oil prevents hair breakage and also promotes proper hair growth. The issue of hair breakage arises when your hair does not get enough moisture. You can get a weekly hair massage using jojoba hair oil. Jojoba oil helps to condition the dry scalp and dry hair follicles. Dry scalp leads to various issues like dandruff.
2. Balances sebum production
There are sebaceous glands which secrete sebum to moisture your hair. These are natural moisturisers to your hair. However, when the glands do not produce enough sebum, your hair tends to go dry and dull, resulting in breakage of hair follicles. Excess of sebum results in greasy hair. You can massage with a couple of drops of jojoba oil on your scalp a few times in a week. The results are amazing and you will not suffer from any over or underproduction of sebum, which is essential for healthy hair growth.
3. Fights bacterial and fungal infections
Jojoba oil has antioxidant properties which help fight infections. We often take less care of our hair which could cause bacterial and fungal infections. This stunts the growth of hair. Regular use of jojoba oil will defend your delicate scalp from getting attacked by these infections.
4. Helps in healthy hair growth
The loss of hair on a daily basis is very much more than the growth of hair. Dry hair follicles, various infections make your hair dull and unhealthy. Many are concerned about going bald. Jojoba oil has properties that promote stronger and healthier hair. Jojoba oil has similar properties as the sebum that is produced in the hair. Use jojoba oil for thicker and shinier hair.
