The key to a lustrous mane is overnight oiling. No matter how much we hate oiling, it is a time tested remedy for getting a thick and gorgeous mane. While most oils are sticky and have a pungent smell, there is one that is non-sticky and fast-absorbing with a sweet lingering smell. That is sweet almond oil. Here in this article, we explain sweet almond oil for hair growth faster, longer and along with benefits.

1. Almond Oil For Hair Growth Longer And Benefits:

Almond oil is either bitter or sweet and is extracted from the kernel of almond seeds. Sweet almond oil is mostly used for skin and hair care. Due to its high absorption capability, it is often called “carrier oil”, which means that it can be a good base for other heavier oils and even light essential oils.

Almond hair oil is rich in B9 i.e., folic acid which makes it perfect for hair growth and scalp nourishment. It ensures that not only the hair gets the proper dosage of nutrients like iron and magnesium, moisturizing agents like fats and vitamin E, but also the proper blood circulation that ensures that the hair follicle DNA gets the right stimulus for growth. It is a very essential component for hair growth as well as body balance and so almond oil can also be directly consumed in some cases. This deep penetrating oil also contains the rare omega 6, omega 3 and omega 9 fatty acids due to its high Vitamin E content.

The best way of applying almond oil is overnight oiling. But if that is not what you like then almond oil is so rich and enriching that even one hour of intense oiling before the bath is enough to soak in its benefits. Just heat up the oil and apply it on the scalp. Make sure it is just warm enough to touch. Otherwise, you can infuse it into a hair mask once a fortnight to revive dull and damaged hair.
