Orange essential oil is one of the most common oils used in aromatherapy for treating many ailments and health conditions. This oil is produced mostly in Brazil and has amazing tonic, antiseptic, rejuvenating, sedative, relaxing and moisturizing properties. It is very widely used for various skin care creams, lotions and other cosmetic products. In addition, orange essential oil is considered one of the best and most effective natural treatments for hair loss which is available for all modern women.
This oil can first of all be recommended to those who have dry or normal type of hair, and also it can be used for restoring health and glowing look of brittle hair because nourishing and moisturizing properties of this oil are really very powerful. It is interesting that specialists do not recommend using orange essential oil for hair loss by adding it to your shampoos, hair conditioners or other commercially produced hair care products. This oil should be applied directly to your scalp or hair roots, and it blends perfectly well with many other essential oils recommended for hair loss treatment and prevention.
Usually, it is the best to add several drops of orange essential oil to a carrier oil (you can use olive oil or other high quality vegetable oil) along with other essential oils like neroli oil, jojobal oil and so on. Here is a recipe of an easy hair loss conditioning mask. Take 100 ml of a carrier oil, add 10 drops of orange essential oil, 15 drops of lavender essential oil and 15 drops of carrot essential oil. Carrot essential oil is another great natural remedy for scalp stimulation.
It is recommended to use this essential oil mixture before washing you hair. Mix it carefully and warm up a little in you hands. Take some amount of the mixture on your fingertips and carefully massage into your scalp. Place some amount of the mixture to your hair roots. Put a towel or a plastic bag around your hair and let the mixture remain for 40-60 minutes. Then wash it off with your usual shampoo and use your usual hair conditioner. Repeat the procedure 1-2 times a week for 3-4 weeks – you’ll notice that your hair is looking more rich and shiny.
