Vegetable oils have been used for hair care for centuries. Thanks to their high fatty acid content, they help to lock in moisture, provide the hair with nutrients, make it softer and smoother, improve hair elasticity and flexibility, and prevent brittle hair and split ends. Ukrainian-Indian brand Chandi presents a line of cosmetic oils for hair care based on traditional Indian recipes and enhanced with Ayurvedic herbs.
The use of natural oils is a fundamental part of Ayurveda. Various vegetable oils are traditionally used in Ayurveda in a variety of ways including raw consumption, cooking, gargling, bathing, massage, and skin and hair care. The two basic categories of Ayurvedic oil are base oil (pure, unrefined vegetable oils such as coconut oil, sesame oil, etc.) and herbal oil (a base oil infused with a herbal decoction).
When used for hair care, base oils help to make the hair stronger and softer, enhance its elasticity and flexibility, restore the hair’s natural shine, reduce hair loss, and stimulate hair growth. Some Ayurvedic oils help to combat dandruff and stimulate hair growth.
Chandi offers several hair oils based on Ayurvedic recipes. They include amla hair oil, bhringraj hair oil, coconut oil for hair and body, and herbal hair oil. Let us take a look at each of these oils so that you can choose the one that’s just right for you.
Coconut oil has been used for hair grooming in the Indian subcontinent for centuries. It is rich in saturated fat, which makes coconut oil slow to oxidise and helps it to last up to six months without spoiling. When applied to hair, coconut oil makes it softer, smoother and shinier, as well as provides the hair with moisture and nutrients. You can also apply coconut oil to your scalp to relieve irritated and flaky skin. Unrefined coconut oil by Chandi is a 100% natural product, free of stabilisers, preservatives and other artificial ingredients.
The brand’s amla hair oil is infused with Indian gooseberry, also known as amla or emblic. Amla is valued in traditional Indian medicine due to its antioxidant properties. Thanks to its high vitamin C content, it neutralises the effects of free radicals and prevents premature ageing. Amla hair oil by Chandi nourishes and moisturises the hair, makes it soft and silky, strengthens hair follicles and stimulates hair growth. Thanks to its antibacterial properties, amla helps to combat dandruff and soothes itchy scalp. Alongside amla oil, the product contains sunflower seed oil, sesame oil, almond oil, wheat germ oil, bhringraj extract, neem extract, grapeseed oil, holy basil extract, and other natural ingredients that complement and enhance the effect of amla.
Bhringraj hair oil is obtained from the plant Eclipta prostrata, commonly known as false daisy and bhringraj. Indian women use bhringraj oil to improve hair growth and colour. Bhringraj oil has moisturising, nourishing, antiseptic, and strengthening properties. It helps to prevent dry and flaky scalp, keeps the hair hydrated, prevents brittle hair and split ends, and makes the hair soft, strong and silky. Other natural ingredients contained in Chandi’s bhringraj hair oil include sesame oil, amla oil, wheat germ oil, hirda extract, beharda extract, grapeseed oil, brahmi extract, nagarmotha extract, kapur kachri extract, vetiver extract, and other Ayurvedic oils and extracts. These ingredients restore the hair’s natural shine and strength, reduce hair loss and stimulate hair growth.
Herbal hair oil by Chandi is designed to take care of all hair types. The product is formulated with a variety of plant-derived ingredients that help to keep the hair strong and healthy. For example, sesame oil stimulates skin cell regeneration in the scalp, nourishes hair follicles and stimulates hair growth. Olive oil nourishes the hair from roots to ends, as well as makes it much softer. Coconut oil keeps the hair hydrated, repairs damaged hair, and protects it from harmful environmental factors. Tea tree oil is valued for its antiseptic properties, it soothes irritated scalp and combats dandruff. Other natural ingredients contained in Chandi herbal hair oil include rosemary oil, ratanjot, eucalyptus oil, nard extract, kapur kachri, camphor oil, lavender oil, brahmi extract, peppermint oil, tulasi extract, neem extract, fenugreek extract, and more.
