Eucalyptus oil for hair

Styling, curling, blow-drying, using curling irons or flat irons on a daily basis injures, overdries and destroys your hair. As a result, instead of beautiful and radiant curls, we get thin and lifeless strands that resemble straw. But they do not reach this state in one day, so you should be patient and take time weekly to restore them.

Beauty and health are the result of competent and regular care. It is generally accepted that in order for the hair to be thick and shiny, as in advertising, you need to invest a lot of money and a lot of time in caring for them. But do not forget that even the most expensive salon care products actually do not always have secret ingredients in their composition. Often they consist of natural oils and extracts from plants, since nature has already taken care of everything and there is no need to invent anything additional.

What do you associate eucalyptus oil with? Probably with cough drops and the treatment of any respiratory diseases. But it has another use that you probably didn't know about. It is perfect for the treatment and restoration of damaged and weakened hair.

You will learn about the unique properties of eucalyptus oil and how to use it in the following video:

Eucalyptus oil is created by nature itself to restore and nourish hair.This is a budget tool that can be bought at any pharmacy and therefore it is available to everyone. Due to its healing properties, it helps to forget about dandruff, oily roots, brittle and dry ends. With it, your hair will acquire additional volume, shine and silky texture. The use of this oil does not weigh down the hair, gradually restores its structure, stimulates hair follicles, and as a result accelerates growth.

And the reason is in the composition, which includes such useful substances as:

• aldehydes - destroy the dead top layer of cells without injuring the living ones;
• flavonoids - have an anti-inflammatory effect, treat the scalp, heal damage;
• organic acids - reduce the amount of secreted fat and normalize the work of the sebaceous glands;
• tannins - strengthen hair roots, stimulate growth, eliminate dandruff, slow down the aging process of the hair;
• hydrocarbon compounds - nourish each hair from the inside.

Do not forget that we are talking about an essential oil, which is very concentrated and if used in its pure form, it can harm sensitive scalp. First of all, as with any other cosmetic product, you need to test for sensitivity. To do this, apply a small amount of oil to the skin just below the bend of the elbow joint. If after 15 minutes the skin does not appear red, rash or itchy, then the oil is completely safe for your skin. Only after that you can begin to apply the oil for the treatment and restoration of hair.

Aromatic brushing.This is probably the easiest way to use it, which will not only help heal and strengthen hair, but also relieve headaches and fatigue. A couple of drops of eucalyptus oil are applied to a wooden comb with medium teeth. And gently begin to comb the hair, thereby distributing the oil along the entire length. Then they need to be warmed with a towel. After half an hour, the head can be washed with regular shampoo and dried in the usual way for you.

Massage with essential oil will increase the blood supply to the scalp, which stimulates the nutrition of the hair roots, strengthens and stimulates their growth. For massage, it is better to use a mixture of ether with olive or any other vegetable oil. We mix them in a ratio of 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to 2 drops of essential oil. The oil mixture should be at room temperature. Dip your fingertips in it and apply it on the scalp with light, slightly massaging movements. The procedure of rubbing and massage should be continued for 15 minutes. After wash your hair with shampoo.

Mask for oily hair. You should mix two eggs, 1 teaspoon of cognac and 3 drops of essential oil. All ingredients are thoroughly mixed, you need to achieve maximum uniformity. The mask should be applied to damp hair, spreading from the roots along the entire length. After application, the head must be well insulated, for this you can use cling film and a towel. After 20 minutes, rinse with warm water and shampoo. This procedure reduces oiliness, nourishes the hair along the entire length, as a result, it becomes more shiny and slower to get dirty.To get the effect of the mask, it is enough to do it once a week.

Eucalyptus oil is an excellent substitute for conditioner. For 1 liter of water we take 2 drops of oil and 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar, you can replace it with wine vinegar, but in no case with vinegar essence. If you apply this composition after each wash, you will notice that the hair stays clean longer, become healthier, and the number of split ends is significantly reduced.

Those who have already managed to try the healing properties of eucalyptus oil from personal experience, talk about the results, do not skimp on compliments. In fact, the effect exceeds even the wildest expectations. Dandruff is significantly reduced after the third application. The problem with oily roots and dry ends begins to smooth out after the first application. Hair becomes more shiny and vibrant.
