How to use Blackseed oil and garlic for hair growth. black seed oil is thought to naturally restore hair growth in thinning areas thanks to its high concentration of thymoquinone, a powerful antihistamine. Yep, antihistamines are often prescribed to alopecia patients to help regrow hair and get this, it’s an essential oil.
That means it’s not thick like olive or coconut oil and has added therapeutic benefits. It also means that 100 percent pure, unrefined, and cold-pressed black seed oil has to be diluted in another carrier oil (such as coconut or olive) because it’s too potent on its own. And when diluted, it can be used directly on the scalp to reduce inflammation, stimulate hair growth and reduce flakiness and sensitivity.
However, even if you don’t have any scalp conditions, it helps to make hair healthy, soft, hydrated, and shiny with consistent use. Mix equal parts black seed oil and coconut oil in a bowl (you can sub in olive oil if you wish). Before showering, work the oil into your scalp in circular motions, concentrating on any thinning areas. Let it sit for 30 minutes and then wash your hair like you normally would. Your locks will be softer, shinier, and hydrated instantly.
If you suffer from dandruff, black seed oil is an excellent natural remedy, especially when you apply it directly to the scalp on a daily basis. This will not only soothe the itching but it will also reduce the flakiness, improve root strength and enhance the look and feel of your scalp and hair.
