It’s not just skin that can benefit from the powerful properties of carrot seed oil! We love using carrot seed oil in hair care as well. Containing high levels of vitamin A, vitamin E and beta carotene, carrot seed oil is great for hair health. It is known for improving blood circulation, which helps to stimulate hair growth and strengthen fragile hair, it also conditions the scalp.

• Repairing hair. Carrot seed oil helps to moisturise dry strands of hair whilst sealing cuticles to prevent breakage due to its rich fatty acid content. These fatty acids smooth down any raised hair cuticles and split ends.
• Strengthening hair. Its high concentration of antioxidants (beta-carotene, vitamin A and vitamin E) help to support and strengthen the hair follicle for healthier hair growth making a great ingredient to add to repairing hair products.
• Moisturising damaged hair. Carrot seed oil has may properties that help to moisturise damaged hair including its ability to increase moisture retention, seal hair cuticles, restore elasticity, nourish your scalp and improve shine.
• Protecting against UV damage. This oil helps to reduce UV and environmental damage to your hair by absorbing UVB light, neutralising free radicals and protecting scalps.
• Soothing itchy scalps. Carrot seed oil is deeply moisturising with anti-inflammatory properties that help to reduce redness and sensitivity. It is also naturally antimicrobial and antifungal and helps to treat the root cause of itchy scalps triggered by bacterial or fungal issues, such as dandruff.
• Stimulating hair growth (anecdotal). Due to carrot seed oil's vitamin and antioxidant content, it helps to improve scalp and hair health, thus resulting in stronger and thicker hair.
