Method 2: For Dry Hair

Dry hair can easily get tangled and is quite vulnerable to split ends and breakage. It is essential to keep your hair well-moisturized. A blend of thick oils can do that as well as restore your hair’s natural shine.

This hair serum uses a combination of castor, avocado, and sweet almond oils to nourish your hair with the right kind of fatty acids and make it more manageable. These oils easily absorb into your scalp and nourish the hair follicles. They also unclog follicles to boost hair growth. The sweet almond oil is rich in antioxidants that prevent hair loss. The essential oils further improve scalp health and impart a sweet fragrance to your hair serum.
