Comfrey is a plant that has clusters of purple, blue and white flowers which grows in Europe, Asia and North America. It has been used in herbal remedies for thousands of years and has numerous properties.

Whilst comfrey isn’t recommended to be taken orally or applied to broken skin, it provides many benefits for promoting healthy hair.

In the form of comfrey root extract, comfrey moisturises dry and damaged hair, improving its softness and texture. Its unique combination of compounds can strengthen the hair shaft which may help to reduce the presence of split ends and fizz.

Comfrey boasts a range of benefits including anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties. In addition, comfrey can help to soothe scalp itchiness and dandruff by mildly cleansing your scalp, without irritation, by gently removing dirt and impurities.
