Premature greying no more
Did you know? Sesame oil has hair darkening properties, precisely why, massaging your hair and scalp with it can prevent premature greying, thereby retaining the natural colour of your hair for longer. Regular use of sesame oil will not just help darken your hair but also keep them healthy and nourished.
Fights dandruff
Dandruff can be embarrassing, itchy and bring your beauty game down. Prepare a hair mask using yoghurt, turmeric and a few drops of sesame oil. Leave it on for about 15-20 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water. Use this mask at least once a week for effective results.
Soothing properties
Sesame oil acts as a natural sun-blocking agent. Your hair is equally exposed to the harsh UV rays on a daily basis, precisely why, you need to pamper your hair and scalp with a rich dose of sesame oil. This oil will form a protective layer around the hair shaft, keeping it safe not just from the harmful rays of the sun but also from the everyday effects of pollution.
Deep conditioning treatment
Your hair is exposed to a number of environmental factors every single day. Which is why, it is important to keep them clean and hydrated and opt for monthly deep-conditioning treatments. All you need to do is warm sesame oil and combine it with a deep conditioner. Apply the mixture onto your hair and leave it on for either an hour or overnight; whatever is comfortable.
Keeps head lice at bay
Combine sesame oil with other essentials oils and you’ve found a perfect remedy to treat head lice. Make it a habit to oil your hair each time before shampooing, for effective results. The anti-bacterial properties of sesame oil will help keep fungal and bacterial infections at bay.
