Castor oil is your biggest ally when it comes to your hair and its improvement, due to its numerous beneficial properties. It is a rich source of vitamin E, minerals and proteins and has powerful antibacterial and antifungal properties.

Moreover, it is loaded with omega 9 fatty acids, which are essential for proper hair and follicle nourishment and can stimulate hair growth and re-growth.

Almost 90% of castor oil is made up of ricinoleic acid, an unsaturated omega-9 fatty acid.  Castor oil also has the ability to thicken your eyelashes and eyebrows. It can penetrate deeply in the pores and follicles, allowing stimulation of hair growth and re-growth.

This miraculous oil offers many health benefits, including:
