Bay oil for hair

Many essential components can help with hair damage. Bay oil in this case is a favorite remedy for girls. It soothes the scalp, can moisturize, nourish and fill the curls with strength and shine.

The active ingredients that are in the composition perfectly care for the scalp and stimulate the growth of new hairs. The broadcast includes:

• fatty acids - nourish the scalp, form a protective layer on the curls, prevent damage;
• limonene extracts - regenerate new skin cells, relieve dandruff from the epidermis;

Bay extract masks are used for hair growth. The essential compound can not only maintain lipid metabolism in cells, but also prevent aging and rejuvenate the skin.

An unusual fact: ether is not used as a basis for masks. Its use should be dosed and used carefully, with the calculation of a few drops per spoonful of the main component.

This method of use is due to the fact that the concentrate has a large amount of active substances, oversaturated with which the skin is damaged.

As a rule, bay essential concentrate is bought already with an existing problem, and not for the prevention of hair loss. It is also appropriate to use the remedy for preventive purposes, as well as for therapeutic purposes. Oil can be used with thinness, lifelessness of the hair, if the curls split and fall out. The concentrate helps:

• healing the skin from dandruff;

• activation of dormant hair follicles;
• soothing skin irritations;
• the inclusion of the protective functions of the epithelium;

• If you are allergic to oil components. Intolerance is rare, but in order to fully verify the safety of the product, you need to conduct an allergic test: apply a little ether to the skin of the wrist and wait a day. If there is no itching, no redness, no rash, then you can use the extract freely.
• It should be remembered that for a certain amount of base it is impossible to increase the dose of oil at will: this will not speed up the solution to the problem. It is better to observe the measure, then with regular use, the hair will definitely improve. With a large amount of such an “elixir” on the hair, the ends can be burned, and the top layer of the hair can be significantly damaged;

In order to start caring for your hair, the first thing to do is buy bay oil. However, it should be remembered: the market is full of not only useful oils, but low-quality fakes, buying which you can simply throw money away.

What to look for when buying bay essential oil:

• Low price. Since the extract is a concentrated remedy, its cost cannot be low. In this case, this indicates diluted oil and additional impurities in the composition. Pharmacies have analogues of a cheaper type, but as a rule, the manufacturer indicates on the label that this is just an analogue;
• Release form. This criterion is important, since the quality of the product depends on the capacity. For example, a bottle (regardless of volume) should be glass and hermetically sealed. In addition, the glass should be tinted - the bay oil should be protected from sunlight. If the packaging rules are not followed, it is better not to buy the concentrate;

After the purchase, you should remember that hair masks using bay extract must be warmed up. Optimum temperature for compositions: 36 degrees, if higher, then all useful substances are destroyed. Also, the oil does not tolerate temperature extremes. For a quick effect on the hair with a mask, it is better to use a heat-protective cap and a towel.

Blends with the concentrate: verbena, rosewood, orange, neroli, cypress and lavender oils. Also, with general dry hair, pay attention to rosemary ether and bigardia. With more aggressive components (citrus), the masks should be kept for no more than 20 minutes, with soft oils - the time can be increased to 1 hour. After this time, the hair will be saturated with all the acids and trace elements from the mask.

Almost all cosmetic manufacturers offer bay oil. But they differ in price, production method and even shelf life.

Oil ester from Botanica also differs in quality and relatively low price. And here is the remedy from the company Aspera faked several times.This does not mean that you need to abandon certain brands, but it is better, before buying, to carefully check the labels with information and expiration dates.
