Hi Lovelies! Today’s special post is about clary sage oil for hair growth and lovely locks of hair! You’ll find out the benefits of clary sage oil for hair and how to make your own hair growth serum with it!
What is Clary Sage Oil?
Scientific Name: Salvia sclarea
Clary sage oil is an essential oil extracted from the herb clary sage. The leaves and flowering tops of the plant are steam distilled to get the precious essential oil. It is very potent since it is an essential oil, so make sure to dilute it properly before use. A 2% dilution rate is the safe and recommended dilution for adults. This means for 1 tsp of vegetable oil/base ingredient, add just 2 drops of clary sage oil, not more.
Here are some of the properties of clary sage oil: Antidepressant, anticonvulsive, antispasmodic, antiseptic, aphrodisiac, astringent, bactericidal, carminative, deodorant, digestive, emmenagogue, euphoric, hypotensive, nervine, sedative, stomachic, uterine and nerve tonic.
