5 Ways to Fully Utilize Pure Bhringraj Oil to Enhance Your Hair

Among the herbs found in ancient Ayurvedic texts, Bhringraj stands out among all others as a treatment for many hair problems. This herb is known as Keshraj in Sanskrit, which means ‘king of hair’. 

Bhringraj, in English, is known as the 'false daisy' and is an ancient wonder herb that is highly recommended for growing long, silky, and strong hair. The oil is made from fresh extracts of this herb, which promotes hair growth, prevents hair loss and dandruff, and treats graying.

Cover the head with a hot towel and leave it on for 30 minutes. Rinse with a sulfate-free hair cleanser until the water runs clear. When regularly applied, this oil will reduce scalp inflammation, increase hair growth, and reduce the occurrence of dandruff.
