Waking up to a “Good Hair Day” can change your mood and instill a different kind of energy,  making us feel instantly more confident. This can be your daily reality.. strong, shiny, frizz-free tresses..all  with the help of @PuraVedaOrganics hair care.  

While our genes play a large role in determining your hair type, longevity and strength,  much also depend on good hair care habits that prevent serious hair health issues.

Upgrading your existing haircare with @PuraVedaOrganics Organic Hair Care products infused with scientifically proven natural ingredients not only strengthens hair strands (called ‘Tensile Strength), but also reduces breakage and restores vitality.

Our Organic hair care incorporates these seven key botanicals to help strengthen and improve overall hair health:

1. Rosemary

A constricted blood supply to the hair follicles starves then of oxygen, causing them to shrink and even die off, leading to hair fall.  Hair strength is vastly improved by improving blood circulation to the scalp.

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) contains active phytochemicals such as Rosmarinic acid, Ursolic acid and Caffeic acid, which aid in circulation and allow fresh oxygenated blood to nourish the hair follicles. In fact, in a study it was seen that Rosemary produces similar results to Minoxidil 2% (or Rogaine) without any side effects.

Rosemary essential oil added to our organic shampoos, conditioners and leave-in conditioning styling gel  is a near-miracle for your hair. Beyond strengthening hair, Rosemary essential oil also prevents premature graying of hair, dandruff and helps heal and moisturize dry or itchy scalp.

2. Burdock

Burdock root contains all the essential amino acids for the building blocks of protein that form the basic structure of hair. High levels of Vitamin A, Phytosterols, Polyphenols and Antioxidants nourish the scalp and strengthen hair fibers.

Burdock (Arctium lappa) also contains minerals like Magnesium, Manganese, Copper, Calcium, Iron and Folate that are great for restructuring keratin fibers and combating thinning hair. Its antiseptic and soothing properties are very effective in treating scalp acne, psoriasis and eczema.

3. Goldenseal

Also known as the ‘Indian Turmeric’, Goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis) is a rich source of Vitamin A, B, C and E, fatty acids and essential oils, all of which are required for restoring vitality to hair.

Steam Distilled Extract from dried root of Goldenseal is infused into PVO’s organic shampoos and conditioners to add volume and shine to your hair. Goldenseal also contains the active phytochemical ‘berberine’ to prevent scalp infections and treat dandruff.

4. Coconut Oil

For generations, the people of India and South East Asians have been drenching their hair in Cold-pressed Coconut Oil as it adds extreme shine and strength. Not only is Coconut (Cocus nucifera) a strong moisturizing ingredient, but it also contains a myriad of nutrients for your scalp, critical to the health of new hair growth.

Coconut Oil is composed of 50% lauric acid and high chain fatty acids that soothe the roots by promoting lymphatic drainage and hydrating hair fibers at the same time.

5. Peppermint

When Peppermint extract(Mentha piperita) is infused with organic carrier oils like Sweet Almond Oil and Grapeseed Oil it can prevent thinning of hair and improve hair growth. In a clinical study, topical application of Peppermint Essential Oil caused a significant increase in follicle number and follicle depth without any side effects.

The cooling phytochemicals in Peppermint increase blood flow to the follicles to encourage new growth at the root level and shows results in less than 4 weeks!

6. Horsetail

Being a rich source of Biotin, Vitamin C, Niacin, Silicones, Minerals and Antioxidants, Horsetail (Equisetum arvense) improves the rate of hair growth. It is used in organic hair care to tame rough and damaged hair and provide added strength, shine and softness. It also helps control dandruff.

7. Nettle

‘Stinging Nettle’ (Urtica dioica) is a strong botanical, scientifically proven to block overproduction of the hormone ‘DHT’ and helps manage excessive hair fall. Vitamins B, Antioxidants, as well as proteins like Lectin and Sterols, Caffeic acid and various other types of Phytohormones, provides complete nourishment to the hair follicles.

Being rich in sulfur and silica, Nettle leaf extract is infused into our Shine On Serum that helps restructure damaged fibers and create strong, beautiful and shiny hair. These active compounds also produce strong antifungal effects that help do away with dandruff and itchy scalp.
