Castor Oil and Rosemary for Thinning Hair
Thinning hair is when you begin to gradually lose hair over a time period until your once thick hair becomes thinner and thinner.
With thinning hair, you can have unsightly gaps on your scalp where the skin on your head shows through. Thinning hair can also happen in certain areas of the scalp only, such as the sides of your head. This is also known as selective balding and can be an embarrassing problem.
How Castor Oil Helps Thinning Hair
Castor oil is reputed to be a wonderful oil for hair growth around the world. Castor oil is extracted from the castor bean and is rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals that reverse thinning hair.
It has high antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. Its beauty benefits are all thanks to the high vitamin E content as well. Castor oil is super moisturizing thanks to the large presence of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids.
The best castor oil to use is Jamaican black castor oil.

How to Use Castor Oil Rosemary Hair Growth Oil
- To treat hair thinning with rosemary hair growth oil, simply heat up the oil (slightly warm) and apply it onto your scalp. Use your finger tips to apply.
- Now using a non-static comb (please don’t use plastic combs – go for wood instead) brush your scalp several times.
- This will help evenly distribute the oil. It also acts as a very good massage for the scalp. This action will help stimulate hair growth and helps the oil penetrate deep into the scalp.

- You can also use this oil as a hot oil treatment and leave it on an hour before you wash your hair.

Can I use this as hair mask?
I’ve been using castor oil alone as hair mask where after applying to my hair, I leave it for 8 hours with a dispodable shower and wrapped with a towel to induce heat.
It works fine. But now I am curious if it is safe to do the same with rosemary oil. Thankyou
