Thyme Oil
Thyme oil is a nutrient-rich oil containing flavonoids and antioxidants. It is also known to have both anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Its flavonoids are also believed to assist in its ability to promote hair growth, as they have been observed to play an important role in the formation of new hair strands during natural hair growth cycle. Thyme oil can reduce inflammation on scalp, and ultimately create a healthier environment for hair to grow. Thyme oil for hair is often used in natural hair care routines due to its purported benefits in promoting scalp health, stimulating hair follicles, and potentially aiding in hair growth.
Thyme oil is believed to be best used directly. Utilizing two tablespoons of the oil to directly apply on the scalp and hair itself, then leaving it for ten minutes twice a week seems to produce the best results. The oil can be washed off normally afterwards.
