PUT HEMP IN YOUR HAIR

Hemp seed oil contains ceramides, the lipids *fats) that support the cellular membranes in the hair. Cellular membranes allow substances to move through the hair cell and the ceramides in your hair help prevent excess moisture from leaving the cells.

Consuming hemp oil or doing a weekly hemp oil mask can greatly improve the moisture quality of your hair. This means shiny, healthy locks. These ceramides also help prevent skin dryness. We have a great selection of hemp hair products.

Hemp products such as shampoo and conditioner have incredible moisturising benefits to your hair and to your scalp, meaning there's less of a chance of dandruff and irritation that can come from dryness. Hemp shampoo and conditioner protects your hair from damage due to the fatty acids and zinc, and also leaves your hair feeling light weight, unlike traditional shampoos that weigh your hair down and typically dry out your hair/scalp.

Stimulates Hair Growth

Hemp seed oil contains Vitamin E, reported to be a good option for stimulating hair growth. Vitamin E has natural antioxidant properties, which reduce oxidative stress on the scalp. Used in dermatological products for generations because of it’s ability to protect the body’s cells, Vitamin E is generally used to mitigate signs of ageing, inflammation and sun damage. It is a vital ingredient for maintaining healthy skin. Vitamin E may improve blood flow, which helps with scalp and hair health. A 2001 study in the Journal of Clinical Investigation found that Vitamin E increased blood flow, encouraged hair growth and increased hair follicle size.

Hemp seed oil also contains vitamin D and magnesium, two other ingredients that are linked to stimulating hair growth.

Helps With Dry Scalp

Did we mention that hemp seed oil is a fantastic moisturiser!? It’s high in essential fatty acids that are the building blocks of our hair, skin and nails.  Dry scalp can be an indicator of a deficiency in Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Hempseed oil has very high amounts of these, and a long list of other amino acids which are key to normal body function. It’s also a natural anti-inflammatory, leading to decreased irritation from dry scalp conditions, which helps with the healing process. (How many times have you heard “don’t scratch it! You will only make it worse.”?)

Helps to Strengthen Hair and Follicles

The high Omega oils content, and long list of vitamins and minerals helps to prevent hair breakage, and results in healthier hair follicles. As well as Vitamins E and D, plus Zinc and magnesium, all known to support healthy and strong hair, Vitamin A is one other key ingredient in hemp seed oil. Vitamin A encourages the secretion of sebum, a substance that prevents hair breakage. All of this comes in a perfectly natural, and highly nourishing form, so that you can enjoy happy healthy hair, straight from mother nature!

Gentle and Effective Moisturising

Some shampoo’s and conditioners contain ingredients that can be irritable to certain skin types. With natural products containing hemp seed oil you are getting one of nature’s greatest moisturisers. It’s hypoallergenic, kind and gentle to your hair and scalp, while also adding incredible shine and strength. The high fat content of hempseed oil locks in moisture to your hair and scalp, it actively nourishes with natural ingredients that are in sync with what your body needs, it’s not introducing foreign bodies that could cause irritation, it works in symbiosis with your body to provide rich nourishing shine, and a healthy moisturised scalp.
