Castor Oil Hair Wrap

A castor oil hair wrap is a hair care technique - apply castor oil to the roots of your hair and massage in gently. Wrap your hair in the castor oil hair wrap, then wear for 45 minutes to a few hours.

Here's what it typically does and the potential benefits associated with this practice:

1. Moisturises and Conditions Hair

Castor oil is a thick and rich oil that is known for its moisturising properties. When applied to the hair, it helps to hydrate and condition dry and damaged strands, leaving the hair softer and more manageable.

   2. Promotes Hair Growth

Castor oil is believed to stimulate hair growth and improve hair thickness. It contains ricinoleic acid, which has been associated with potential hair growth benefits. Massaging castor oil into the scalp during a hair wrap improves blood circulation to the hair follicles, promoting healthier hair growth

   3. Strengthens Hair

The nutrients and fatty acids in castor oil can help strengthen the hair shaft, reducing the risk of breakage and split ends. This can lead to healthier and more resilient hair over time

  4. Treats Scalp Issues

Castor oil is beneficial for scalp issues such as dandruff or dry scalp. Applying it to the scalp during a hair wrap can help nourish the scalp and alleviate these problems

  5. Enhances Shine and Luster

Castor oil adds shine and luster to dull hair, making it appear healthier and more vibrant

  6. Anti-Inflammatory Effects

Castor oil has some anti-inflammatory properties, which help soothe your irritated scalp and reduce redness and inflammation

To create a castor oil hair wrap, you typically apply a generous amount of castor oil to your hair and scalp, focusing on the roots. Cover your hair with an Honest Skincare Castor Oil Hair Wrap to retain heat and aid in absorption. Leave the wrap on for anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours, before washing your hair thoroughly to remove the oil. 

The frequency of using a castor oil hair wrap can vary based on individual preferences and hair needs. Our wraps are made from double thickness cotton, ensuring no leaks and a very comfortable, soft fit.
