The warming and stimulating effects of ginger work to increase the scalp circulation and encourage healthy hair growth. Ginger contains antioxidant gingerol, which helps to fight free radicals that can damage hair cells and cause both hair thinning and hair loss. Rich in minerals and essential oils, it makes hair more manageable, softer and shinier. 

Cinnamon works for the hair and scalp both physically and chemically. It is a great exfoliant, and its primary benefits are due to the spice’s ability to promote circulation. Stimulated circulation, in turn, promotes hair growth. Cinnamon also exfoliates and removes any build-up that may be present on the scalp, which unclogs and frees up your hair follicles to allow for healthier hair growth.

Particularly rich in essential oils and active ingredients, rosemary is an excellent tonic for the entire body, especially hair. It is also antiseptic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, it has a fortifying effect, and is an invaluable ingredient. Rosemary also works as an antioxidant that protects the scalp from aging, and inhibits oxidation of surface lipids. 

Lavender is useful in scalp conditions such as dandruff, eczema, psoriasis and acne. With its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, lavender soothes and heals the scalp, which results in reduction of hair loss. Along with its healing and balancing effects, lavender also has stimulatory effects on hair growth. Like other ingredients we use, it's rich in antioxidants which help neutralize free radicals, which is beneficial to overall hair health.

Turmeric is both gentle and invigorating, and makes for a wonderful exfoliating cleanser for the hair and scalp. It works to help prevent hair loss because it contains chemical factors that help to inhibit type 2 5A-reductase enzymes. These enzymes are responsible for the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is the same hormone linked to androgenetic hair loss, a genetic condition that manifests through the loss of hair.

Vanilla contains a large range of vitamins, minerals and essential oils, all of which work together to keep hair healthy. The main chemical ingredient, vanillin, is a powerful antioxidant that prevents damage to the follicles, and has been linked to an increase in growth and assistance in reversing loss. Vanilla is rich in B-complex vitamins and nutrients that aid reduction of effects due to oxidization, poor keratin, and protein development - both key elements in follicle cycle growth.
