Common Usages for Castor Oil:

• Promotes hair and scalp health

• Reduces hair breakage

• Improves hair texture

Castor oil, coming from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant has been used for centuries in traditional beauty treatments for hair because of its beneficial fatty acids and vitamin E content. After being extracted from the seeds, the oil is filtered and steamed to remove ricin, a toxic component that could cause rancidity. What’s left is vegetable oil rich in compounds such as ricinoleic acid, linoleic acid, stearic acid, protons, antioxidants and more.

These chemical components, especially the fatty acids, allow for the many castor oil benefits for hair. When massaged into the scalp and strands, the oil has moisturizing, soothing and circulation-stimulating properties, making it a useful home remedy for many common hair-related issues.

Castor oil helps to hydrate hair, improve hair texture, reduces hair breakage, promotes hair and scalp health and more. Similar to coconut oil, castor oil works as a natural detangler and has been proven to reduce hair felting, a disorder that causes hair to become entangled and matted, creating what resembles a bird’s nest. Because of castor oil’s moisturizing and soothing properties, castor oil can ease dryness and irritation of the scalp. It also works as an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and healing agent.

There are few known side effects of castor oil but there is a possibility that one may experience an allergic reaction if using castor oil topically, including redness, irritation and swelling. Keep castor oil away from the eyes. If using castor oil on your eyebrows, start with a very small amount.

As is the case with taking any supplement while you are pregnant or breastfeeding or taking medication, you should always consult your healthcare professional prior to usage.
