What is castor oil?
Castor oil is an oil produced from the seeds of the castor plant. It is a very thick oil with a consistency like honey or syrup.
The oil is known to strengthen hair because it contains a wide variety of minerals and fatty acids that are important for growing healthy and strong hair.
Why does it work?
This thick oil is a source of monounsaturated, 18-carbon fatty acid, an omega-9 fatty acid. Among these fatty acids is ricinoleic acid, castor oil has a very high content of ricinoleic acid. This acid is antibacterial and is therefore very effective against bacteria and fungi. This can help keep any fungi or bacteria from preventing healthy hair growth. Because the oil is also very thick, it can help prevent hair loss.
Omega 9 fatty acids are nourishing to both hair and hair follicles and have a unique ability to be deeply penetrating. This means that the oil is able to provide nourishment deep into the pores and hair follicles that produce hair. That is why castor oil has been praised around the world as an effective ingredient for strengthening hair, eyelashes and eyebrows in a natural and safe way.
